Migrating from TPS/TDC 3000

Honeywell has protected your investment in TPS/TDC 3000 technology by offering an easy upgrade path to the latest control system technology without having to replace your entire legacy hardware and software system.

The most attractive migration scenario for the TPS/TDC 3000 system user is to begin with the Human Machine Interface (HMI). The Experion HMI allows you to enter new dimensions of process control, at your own pace.

Honeywell offers many paths for migrating your HMI, including:

• Upgrade options for replacing existing Universal Station furniture with your choice of target station platforms.
• Upgrade options for taking Global User Stations (GUS) to an Experion Ready or Experion Station-TPS platform.

Customers with current Solution Enhancement Support Program (SESP) contracts benefit from the cost-effective Kits & Enhancements offerings that will take your platforms into the next generation of Process Knowledge Systems.

With goals for increased productivity and decreased maintenance costs, many companies are looking to Honeywell’s Experion® Process Knowledge System (PKS) as a path to the newest technology. Experion is the only process automation system designed to manage your business, processes, and assets in one unique system.  

In order to determine the most efficient and cost-effective migration strategy, Honeywell offers a system assessment of each customer's specific requirements.

The assessment includes:

• Evaluation of automation goals
• An audit of the current system and process
• Recommendations for HMI migration and effective operator displays
• Recommendations for hardware migration and protecting current installation investment
• Personnel training and implementation plans
• Optimization and integration recommendations

The first step in migrating your current system is to call Honeywell for a system assessment. Based on the results of the assessment, we will provide an estimate of the timing and costs involved so you can implement a migration plan that works best for you. We can also provide suggestions on how to fund your migration over time.
