Hi FrancisL,
Actually DCS or DDC or BAS or BMS, I believe they are all used interchangeably.
They are all used mainly for Building/Plant control with systems over 500 I/O’s or systems requiring central HVAC systems.
Either way, I found a Web site with the top tier DCS Control companies...
Guys,
Just want to reiterate, does some one can recommend an overseas (outside the USA) DDC systems with WEB based interface and a robust server back end?
I am really fed up with all the bull going on here in the USA with all these DDC manufactures.
The prices here are OUT OF THE ROOF!!
Thanks,
Agree with most of you guys. I am personally a contractor doing PLC and trying to get back into DCS market. I worked for over 10 years with DCS's and I really like the technology.
Unfortunately it is extremely difficult to make it in the DCS industry if you are a small company and do not think...
Ah!, DCS and PLC's. Yes, I agree that a good portion of the PLC market is approaching DCS controls. Unfortunately, DCS controls are still VERY expensive.
DELTA V, very nice DCS. Even though some people still call it a PLC. VERY EXPENSIVE!
As far as who is the leader, I think there is not one...
