NeSSI(New Sampling/Sensor Initiative)Interface to the Process Jim Tatera, Rob Dubois, Peter van Vuuren 2001 Fall Sponsor Meeting Center for Process Analytical Chemistry
Topics • Major Goals of NeSSI • Status and Developments to Data • New NeSSI Analytical Sensors • Opportunities and Future Needs
Facilitate the acceptance/implementation of... modular, miniature & smart sample system technology based on ISA SP76 standardization work Promote the concept of... field-mounted smart sampling/analytical systems integration of sample systems with physical/chemical sensors Lay the groundwork for... open connectivityarchitecture for sensor communications (e.g. Ethernet, DeviceNet, etc.) industry standard communicationprotocols (e.g. OPC, DeviceNet, CAN etc.) web enabled technologies (e.g. Browser based HMI) Provide a technology bridge to the process for... “sensor/lab-on-a-chip” micro-analytical devices match the macro-world of process with micro-world of sensor Major Goals of
Status and Developments to Date • Integration of Physical Sensors Initial Main Goal (NeSSI I)Pressure and Temp sensors readily availableTraditional Mass Flow Sensors available(area classification limitations, high cost) • First Generation of NeSSI Analytical Sensors Emerging(Announced at ISA2001 NeSSI Tutorial) • JpH Sensor - Rosemount Analytical (demo to be presented during reception this evening) • J Moisture Sensor - Panametrics Oxygen Sensor • J UV/VIS Probe - Applied Analytics

Opportunities and Future Needs • Application of Smart Miniature Physical Sensors(Next Main Goal NeSSI II - Update this afternoon)Extend to pressure, temp and flow sensors (gas and liquid) • Small Footprint • Intrinsically Safe • CAN-based “Flash” configurable for multiple protocols: e.g. DeviceNet and SDS Integrate with SAM Cost: <$500(believe technology is available and “waiting in wings” needs adaptation to NeSSI footprint) Joint CPAC/End-User/Vendor Program for 2002?
Opportunities and Future Needs • Adaptation/Integration of Next Generation Micro-Analytical Systems with NeSSI as Sampling System PlatformApplicability: ALSO FOR LAB BASED (OFF-LINE) APPLICATIONS • Candidates: • JMicro - GC J Micro NMR J Micro MSJ “Lab-on-a-Chip”J Others • Issue: How do we evaluate/test NeSSI as Micro-Analytical Sampling System Platform? • Topic for Focus Group Discussion?
