Your company develops a new product on lab scale equipment before scaling it up to produce trial
quantities in a pilot plant. After successful pilot-scale production trials, the process is commercialized in a
large scale production unit. All of this is done in the same facility and you are responsible for supporting
the control equipment. Obviously, the most desired situation is that all of these systems look and feel
identical to the users: scientists, process engineers, automation engineers, and operators. The DeltaV
system has ultimate scalability and was built from the ground up with the idea of a single platform to fit
any size application. Whether or not the system is 25 or 25,000 I/O, the operator, engineer, production
manager, and maintenance technician all have the same experience. There is no re-configuration,
