BASF: Customer Story Key Figures
remotely monitored for analysis
variables measured and computed
remote access to data asset health
When BASF built a new electrical substation, it implemented EcoCare* for remote visibility into operations. The largest chemical company in the world now has a consolidated view of data from anywhere, anytime, and the expert support needed to respond to critical-asset upkeep.
- BASF wanted to build a new power distribution substation at its Beaumont, Texas plant.
- BASF sought to be an industry leader in leveraging data-driven services and remote monitoring to maximise plant uptime and productivity.
- A single, IIoT-enabled solution was put in place, providing visibility on the health of the site's prime electrical-distribution assets.
Apps, Analytics & Services: EcoCare*
Edge Control: EcoStruxure Power Monitoring Expert
Connected Products: Low- and medium-voltage switchgear, TeSys™ motor control systems, UPS units, DC battery, and variable frequency drives
- Schneider Electric helped build Substation 6, adding low- and medium-voltage switchgear, motor control systems, UPS units, variable frequency drives, and more.
- BASF implemented EcoCare* to continuously collect and analyse data on the health of these assets and to enable visibility on that data from anywhere.
- Through its partnership with the Schneider Electric Services Bureau, BASF gets customised advice and proactive recommendations to prevent failure and optimise maintenance strategies.
EcoCare* is helping to prevent catastrophic failures. It's getting the right data at the right time. And in the end, data is value.
