The Aventics Series Advanced Valve system featuring the Advanced Electronic System (AES)
Profinet and EtherNet/IP is now available with preinstalled OPC UA functionality, making
it the first and only valve system to offer this directly integrated capability, according to
Emerson. The AES allows users to solve interoperability challenges and access data while the
integration of digital twin technology can be used to improve productivity and efficiency. Use
of OPC UA in this valve system reportedly simplifies communication with other systems as no
gateway is required. According to Emerson, this can result in costs savings for users since it’s
more complex and expensive to receive analytics from a valve system without OPC UA. The
company notes that the AES is simple to integrate and connect to new or existing applications
and machines and provides easy access to data and analytics without changing the controller.
