Process plant design and maintenance is more complex than ever and properly managing the large amount of information pertaining to plant instruments is paramount.  Efficiently design, document and plan your instrumentation and control systems with EPLAN PPE to simplify the often daunting task of creating perfect instrumentation & control systems from preliminary engineering to detail drawings to plant construction and maintenance—all while fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.

When it comes to managing the massive amounts of instrumentation data, spreadsheets just don’t measure up.  They quickly become overwhelmingly cumbersome and cannot create important project reports in a presentable format.  EPLAN PPE’s powerful database eliminates the difficulties and inefficiencies caused by inadequate design and documentation tools because it centrally manages all project data of an instrumentation and control system for maximum efficiency and effectiveness.

EPLAN PPE’s P&ID module provides the graphical overview of all process equipment, piping and instrumentation details to be used as a foundation by your engineering design team.  EPLAN PPE’s unique database management system displays the functional view of a plant structure in browser-like format which makes navigating and modifying easy and quick.  Another significant benefit offered by EPLAN PPE’s unique data management technology is the range and quality of customizable project documentation.  Loop sheets, device specification sheets, instrument and I/O lists, equipment lists, and project cost estimate sheets are just a few documentation examples.  With EPLAN PPE, you can even incorporate external documentation into your project such as manufacturers’ technical data sheets which can prove to be very useful when troubleshooting— saving precious time and money.

EPLAN PPE offers tremendous flexibility and interfacing capabilities coordinating the efforts of entire design teams from process, mechanical, instrumentation, controls and electrical engineering disciplines.  This interdisciplinary collaboration results in faster integrated design check and ultimately in quicker release of project documentation for plant construction.

EPLAN PPE is available as an add-on module to EPLAN Electric P8 or as a standalone product.  Use EPLAN PPE in conjunction with EPLAN Electric P8 and watch your design efficiency and accuracy increase even more.  Electrical and process engineers will have access to project data including schematics and loops, electrical bill of materials, wire and cable lists, and I/O configurations.

For those projects where the engineering design team members are geographically separated, EPLAN PPE’s innovative WEB Viewer tool makes access to the current project data from anywhere in the world as simple as a mouse click.
