A comprehensive approach for continuous operations GE’s open and modular mission critical control solutions support flexible system integration and adaptability that adapts to changing business requirements—without compromising high performance and availability. Advanced Power Management Control and measurement of electrical power systems is delivered by our PACSystems RX3i Power Synchronization and Measurement Interface. This powerful interface enhances your ability to maintain continuous operations and increase efficiency with functionality that enables synchronization of multiple onsite backup power sources, monitoring of power system status and fault detection, collection of consumption metrics for the purposes of demand penalty cost reduction and load shedding during peak operating periods. Predictive Analytics for Advanced Process Management Expand your mission critical solution beyond the control layer with work process management tools for day-today operations such as alarm/process exception handling and corrective actions, maintenance management, and system failover procedures. Built on a service oriented architecture (SOA) platform, Proficy Workflow is a user-configurable, dynamic decision making engine for integrating automated and manual business and production processes across system and departmental boundaries—ensuring reliable, repeatable process texecution that is critical to continuous operations. Secure by Design Extensive testing under real-world conditions is used to validate performance and ensure that each cyber-hardened platform stands up to even the most extreme conditions. GE’s RX3i PLC passes all tests specified to meet Achilles certification, the industry-recognized standard for communications robustness. RX3i offers improved security across the network through an OPC UA protocol. OPC UA provides encryption and certificate management, making it difficult for an attacker to impersonate a legitimate device or insert itself into the communication path between devices. GE is continually to enhancing the security features of their Automation & Controls platform to adapt to a continually evolving security climate. Secure Development Lifecycle Meticulous attention to detail in the development process ensures RX3i minimizes operating costs while securely delivering maximum availability.

PACSystems Rack based multi-processor control Compact Footprint Maximize limited cabinet space with a variety of rack sizes combined with over 100 module options that adapt to a wide range of applications. Multiple Modules Performing as One Communicate over a wider, faster pipeline in a single rack or distributed racks with powerful multi core CPUs, unique control modules, and advanced communication modules Built-in Discovery Tools Simple name based configurations allow you to add 3rd party devices easily. On-line Repair Easily diagnose disturbances without impacting system operation Hot-Swap Whether in rack with CPU or remote nodes, I/O can be hot swapped and keep systems running. Need more power add a supply on the fly! Power supplies can be used for adding power or providing redundancy. Profinet I/O Save on wiring without compromising performance. 1GB real time I/O networks with built in switches, and ability to do copper/fiber combinations on board provides flexibility while saving cost and reducing failure points Advanced Security Highest Availability Achilles 2 certified for robustness against Survive breaks in the network and stay online service attacks. Secure boot to prevent when a node is in maintenance mode with malicious applications and “unauthorized” bumpless switchover. operating systems. Trusted Platform Module (TPM) on board PACSystems RX3i includes the latest security features to help protect data and processes from attacks and unauthorized access. Secure User Authentication Industry standard password generation prevents unencrypted passwords from being transmitted across the network. Role-based Access Control Industry standard password generation prevents unencrypted passwords from being transmitted across the network. OPC UA Security OPC UA provides encryption and certificate management, making it difficult for an attacker to impersonate a legitimate device and insert itself into the communication path between devices. Signed Firmware Updates Extensive testing ensures performance under the most extreme network conditions, such as “man in the middle” and denial of service attacks. Cyber-Hardened Platform Extensive testing ensures performance under the most extreme network conditions, such as “man in the middle” and denial of service attacks. Physical Presence for Application Changes Front panel switch prevents update to the application code and PLC firmware. This option helps to prevent unauthorized user access and tampering.
