Turn Suboptimal Control Loops into High-Performance Assets – with Zero Downtime
Controller Performance Monitoring (CPM) uses your operational data to continuously monitor, benchmark, and tune PI/PID controllers. The result: tighter process control, fewer disruptions, and measurable cost savings – all without shutting down your systems.
Why Controller Performance Matters
Most plants tune their control loops once during commissioning – and then leave them alone. As process conditions change, performance drifts. The consequences are significant:
- 85% of loops run suboptimally
- 20–30% of controllers sit in manual mode
- 20–40% experience oscillations that reduce stability
Before CPM: manual tuning, inconsistent results, downtime from step tests, rising operational costs.
After CPM: automated monitoring, proactive alerts, targeted tuning, and continuous optimization – with no disruptions.
What is CPM?
CPM is like a health check for your control systems. It continuously evaluates every loop, flags inefficiencies before they cause issues, and recommends precise retuning – all automatically.
With CPM, your team gains:
- Continuous monitoring across processes
- Root cause analysis of performance issues
- Data-driven tuning optimization
- Real-time KPIs, alarms, and dashboards
