Ashland Releases OnGuard i Controller for Water and Process Treatment
Nov. 20, 2013
New ‘intelligent’ chemical feed and control system provides performance-based and knowledge-based control of specialty chemical applications.
Ashland Water Technologies, a commercial unit of Ashland Inc., introduced its new OnGuard i controller at the International Water Conference in Orlando Nov. 17-20. This technology provides a full range of performance-based and knowledge-based control, making it possible to automate demanding water or process treatment applications.
The controller has a co-processor that uses proprietary software to perform complex calculations. It can be configured to most key performance indicators or key operating indicators for a particular facility. This allows Ashland customers to fully customize and automate their water or process treatment program while maximizing benefits such as reduced water, energy or chemical consumption.
