NeSSI*: Full Speed Ahead “Into the Project Stage” CPAC - Seattle, WA - Nov. 4, 2002 NeSSI End Users Group. “the best way to predict the future is to create it” *New Sampling/Sensor Initiative
“And let it be noted that there is no more delicate matter to take in hand, nor more dangerous to conduct, nor more doubtful in its success, than to set up as the leader in the introduction of changes. For he who innovates will have for his enemies all those who are well off under the existing order of things, and only lukewarm supporters in those who might be better off under the new.'’ Niccolò Machiavelli (from The Prince pub. 1515)
Presentation Outline Recap of NeSSI Structure and Objectives NeSSI Gen I, II, III Overview Activity Update Gen II Delivery - POCA/DoE Projects Acknowledgements Summary
NeSSI Structure An ad hoc global industry initiative, formed in June, 2000 to drive permanent change in the way we do Process Analytical. –NeSSI mail-out has now grown to 330+ subscribers Represents over 31 End Users from Oil and Petrochemical as wells as Manufacturing Companies, Academia, National Labs, etc. An “Open” Initiative sponsored by CPAC (Center for Process Analytical Chemistry) –provides a legal umbrella
NeSSI Objectives Facilitate the acceptance/implementation of... –modular, miniature & smart process analytical technology Promote the concept of... –at the pipe/field-mounted (“by-line”) analytical Lay the groundwork for... –open connectivity communication architecture Provide a technology bridge to the process for... –“sensor/lab-on-a-chip” microanalytical devices
NeSSI Vision of Success Reduce Engineering Time –“configurator tool” –self-documenting Reduce Assembly Time –Lego Like Assembly Lower Maintenance Costs –diagnostics Vision Element: To design, assemble and configure an analytical system on one’s kitchen table.

Activity Update Since Spring CPAC, 2002 –May, DoE supplier/user team formed & White Paper developed by U. Bonne/Honeywell Labs –June, White Paper Submitted to DoE –July, POCA* Project conceived –August, ISA SP76 footprint approved by ANSI –October, ISA NeSSI Presentation. Jim Tatera. –November, POCA prototypes ordered. *POCA = NeSSI Gen II Proof of Concept Apparatus Project
Introducing POCA Project Purpose: Accelerate NeSSI Gen II dev. Seeded by Dow Chemical, ExxonMobil Chemical, Air Products (TBA) Honeywell major supplier/integrator –B. Nickels (commercialization & networking) –U. Bonne (sensor R&D) Impact - introduction of…. first SP76 minisensor (p, T, F) first SP76 miniactuators (Vo, Vm) first intrinsically safe, low cost, compact bus IN PROGRESS

Nettles (ChevronTexaco) –Frank Scweighardt (Air Products) –George Vickers (BP) –Paul Barnard (EquistarChemicals) –Steve Doherty (Pharmacia) –Alan Eastman (ConocoPhillips)b Supplier Team –Ulrich Bonne (Honeywell Labs)* –Bob Nickels (Honeywell ACS) –Dave Simko (Swagelok) –Steve Doe (Parker-Hannifin) CPAC –Mel Koch * Supplier Team Lead PI
DoE Project Deliverables 1. Heated/Temperature Programmed Substrate 2. mini-Sensor Transducers (p, T, F) 3. “Combi” Actuator Transducers (Vo, Vm) (on/off & modulating transducers) 4. SAM - Sensor/Actuator Manager 5. PC/PDA with HMI* [Wireless] 6. Multi-Drop Digital Intrinsically Safe Bus 7. Micro Climate Enclosure * HMI = Human Machine Interface Certified CSA, FM, CENELEC
We Need to Better Understand the Process Analytical Market Q1. What is the total number of US (and worldwide) sampling points across process industries (Chemical, Petrochem, Pharma, Food & Beverage, Glass, Metals, etc.)? Q2. What would be the minimum common denominator of a NeSSI design? Q3. Cross-industry, what % is liquid/gas what % of instrumentation is intrinsically safe?
