Automation and intelligence can not only improve production efficiency, but also significantly reduce operating costs and reduce the risks and errors caused by manual operations.
01 Industry Pain Points

Low level of automation : At present, many chemical tank farms have a low level of automation and still rely on a large amount of manual operation, resulting in low efficiency, high costs, and prone to human operational errors.
Outdated equipment : Some chemical tank farms have outdated equipment, backward technology, and lack of necessary maintenance and upgrades, resulting in low production efficiency, great safety hazards, and difficulty in meeting modern production needs.
Difficulty in safety management : Chemical tank areas involve a large number of flammable, explosive and toxic substances, which makes safety management difficult and requires a more complete safety monitoring and emergency response system.
High pressure on environmental protection : As environmental regulations become increasingly stringent, chemical tank farms need to adopt more environmentally friendly materials and processes to control pollution emissions and reduce the impact on the environment.
02 Application Cases
A large chemical plant mainly produces and develops specialty chemicals based on long-chain fatty acids and their derivatives, and its products mainly use natural oils as raw materials. Zero Point products are used in the tank area control system of the plant to participate in the automated control of the centralized storage and call of raw materials and chemical products. After introducing Zero Point distributed IO, the plant has improved its automation level, improved its safety supervision system, and achieved cost reduction and efficiency improvement for the enterprise.

In this case, CN-8032-L is used as a distributed IO slave station distributed in various places in the tank area to achieve partition control. The digital input module CT-121F module is used to collect the feedback status of the valve and motor, and the liquid level status of the tank; the digital output module CT-222F module is used to realize the control of motor start and stop and valve opening and closing, and control the indicator light in the tank area to let the inspection personnel understand the current equipment status; the analog input module CT-3734 is used to collect the temperature value of PT100 to monitor the temperature status in the tank, and the analog output module CT-4234 is used to output the current signal to control the regulating valve and control the flow of thermal oil to keep the tank constant temperature. The analog input module CT-3238 module is used to monitor the feedback of the regulating valve and the material flow, etc.
By introducing Zero C series distributed IO, the plant has achieved centralized control and real-time monitoring of the tank area. With the continuous development of automation and intelligent technology, more chemical companies will benefit from it, improve production efficiency and safety, and welcome a more intelligent and environmentally friendly future.
