StarPac Intelligent System
Benefits and Advantages
Real-time System Analysis StarPac’s ability to gather and send flow and process data allows up-to-
the-minute, engineering analysis, aiding in reducing production costs and
enhancing the process.
Wide Versatility Multiple control modes– including fluid flow, upstream pressure, down-
stream pressure, differential pressure and temperature–permit StarPac
systems to be used in a wide variety of process applications. Remote
sensors can be tied into the StarPac unit for control of other process
parameters. Cascade action is also supported.
Simple System StarPac software is easy to use, allowing the system to be setup or recon-
Configuration figured quickly as needed by the user to optimize the process system.
True Distributed Process The StarPac unit can take load off a DCS by distributing measurement
Control and control to the field. This allows the DCS to function as a process
supervisor, acting on information from the whole system
Increased Safety
Fewer Line Penetrations Single-point installation limits line penetrations for sensors and reduces
potential leaks to the environment, reducing EPA reporting requirements.
Continuous Monitoring StarPac system continuously monitors the valve position and the opera-
tion of several critical internal parameters, notifying the user when im-
proper operation occurs, before upsetting the process.
System Warnings Programmable settings permit the user to set process system parameters
and to be notified when those limits are violated.
Improved Maintenance
Predictive Maintenance StarPac software allows the intelligent system to be used to diagnose the
valve operation as well as upstream and downstream equipment (such as:
pumps, reactors, heat exchangers, etc.) while in operation to predict an
acceptable performance or potential failure. Maintenance can then be
performed before process failure occurs.
Reduced Complexity With all functions located in one package, complexity of the total control
system is reduced. Locating, finding and troubleshooting the problem
is easier.
Remote On-site Service StarPac’s modem capability means low-cost, on-site, factory service is
available when needed, using telecommunication technology.

connected to the unit via its serial data port.
Local Display - Eight variables (P1, P2, temperature, gas and liquid flow,
setpoint, stem position and total flow) can be displayed on an externally-
visible display. An error indicator will show if the StarPac system
should fail any internal diagnostics or have active process alarms.
