\n What is a Virtual Sensor? <\/h2>\n
\n

Orise Digital is proud to deliver technology-independent soft sensing solutions for our core industry customers. Our Virtual Sensor tool is a soft sensor, which informs operators and engineers in real time what is going on in their processes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our soft sensing solutions are so reliable that they are used in closed loop to improve the performance of our clients assets.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Soft Sensing Overcomes Multiple Challenges<\/strong><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Key measurements like quality, efficiency, composition are very often not available to\u00a0 operators in real time. Although these measurements are often the most important KPI\u2019s of a plant, they are only made available a few times per hour or much less frequently. Additionally, laboratory sampling and analyses are also subject to human error.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This leads many to opt for an online analyzer, which are often very expensive and require a lot of maintenance efforts like frequent re-calibration. Reliable online analyzers are not always available for every measurement, such as multi-phase flows in the upstream industry, color of chemical components, etc. Analyzers like Gas Chromatographs have often sampling frequencies of 20 minutes or even slower.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Soft sensing, also called virtual metering or inferentials, combines de data from reliable standard sensors with the help of a model into a desired reading. With the use of soft sensors based on good models and real time data, robust \u201cvirtual sensors\u201d can be built in a very cost effective way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
