Key Differences Between Kvint-6 and Kvint-5

• What Is New in the Architecture
• New Operational Tools
• What Is New in the Controllers
• What Is New in Engineering

For those familiar with the previous generation, Kvint-5, the differences introduced in Kvint-6 will be of interest. In summary, Kvint-6 offers the following new features and capabilities:

• new system-integration tools make it possible to build enterprise-scale automated process control systems;
• a new network architecture, including new network-redundancy tools, raises the speed and reliability of information exchange in an integrated automated process control system to a new level;
• new turbine-control and electronic-protection tools (the turbine controller) enable Kvint-6 to perform automatic frequency and power control of power units;
• new operational-mode tools simplify the work of operating personnel and provide new information capabilities;
• new engineering and commissioning tools reduce the time required to design automated process control systems and make the process even simpler and more visual;
• new hardware solutions increase the system’s performance and reliability, while the new controller layout makes controllers easier to use;
• new I/O modules, new library algorithms and expanded memory improve controller functionality and efficiency.

As a result, the Kvint-6 hardware and software system has become even more universal, efficient, reliable and convenient to use. The links on the left provide a more detailed list of Kvint-6’s key new features.

Kvint-5 and Kvint-6 have a high degree of continuity. At the enterprise level, some projects can be implemented using Kvint-5 and others using Kvint-6, while information integration between these projects is maintained.
