Introduction
This document contains actual examples of how Exaplog is used for process analysis. For an overview of the concepts and special features of Exaplog, refer to the separate Exaplog Event Analysis Package Overview, TI 36J06A10-01E. For specifications, see NTPS100 Exaplog Event Analysis Package GS 36J06A10-01E.

(3) Lets check if the tag produced alarms regularly or temporarily. The EBT graph indicates that the tag produced many alarms in the time span only. When checking the conditions of the previous day, you will see that no alarms occurred.

A flood of HI and HH alarms occurred from a differential pressure controller that controls a vent/vacuum filter, when materials that were different from ordinary ones were injected. The same furnace is used to produce various products in the chemical industry, so a flood of alarms occurs if alarm settings of pressure valves and others were not properly adjusted depending on materials. However, the operator ignored alarms because he/she knew that they often occur due to difference in materials. This implies that he/she may ignore important alarms. The Exaplog analysis allows you to eliminate the causes of problems on the EBT graph and continue to analyze unbalanced areas - to keep balance between process requests and operator work.

(3) Lets check if the tag was manually manipulated at regular intervals during the day, or just once. The EBT graph indicates that it was manipulated at regular intervals. When checking the data on the previous day, you will see the operation was also conducted regularly.

The automation of the operation would reduce the operators work. The Exaplog Event Analysis Package helps you identify and reduce alarms/inefficient operation - and improve efficiency. The continuous analysis of process unbalances on the EBT graph allows you to optimize plant operation.
