I had the chance last week to work with the technicians in a local chemical mill. First thing I noticed when I went to the cal lab was an old Fisher pneumatic controller right next to a six month old Radar level transmitter. The mill had better than fifty years span of controls technology. It was loads of fun being back in industry for a day. I hope to get to do this type of visit more often. I learned quite a lot about equipment reliability, and maintenance in an engineers playground. The techs all mentioned the fact that whatever the engineers whims were dictated what new equipment they had to maintain. It is a big site, and there was almost everything from DeltaV to Honeywell, to Modicon.
Please don't ask about the products, they are veried, and only identifiable by product numbers. I'd rather not mention the name of the company too.
