kontrolrumsystemniveau

Kontrolrumsystemniveau is a term used in industrial automation to describe the supervisory layer of control room information systems. It refers to the set of hardware and software used by operators to monitor, analyze, and influence processes from a central location. The term is often used in European industrial contexts and aligns with the concept of the supervisory level within multi-layer control architectures.

The control room system level typically includes human-machine interfaces (HMIs), SCADA or DCS servers, historian databases, alarm management, visualization dashboards, and operator consoles. These components collect real-time data from field devices, provide visualization, enable command and control, and store process data for compliance and analysis.

Architecturally, Kontrolrumsystemniveau sits above field and process layers and below enterprise systems. It supports operational decision making and incident response. In the Purdue model, it corresponds loosely to Level 3 (manufacturing control) and parts of Level 4 (production planning and MES interfaces).

Standards and interoperability considerations include OPC UA for data exchange, IEC 62443 for cybersecurity of control systems, and ISA-95 or ANSI/ISA-95 for integration with business systems. The level emphasizes reliability, availability, and situational awareness.

Challenges include information overload, latency, and cybersecurity risks. Best practices focus on ergonomic visualization, redundancy, robust alarming, auditing, and scalable architectures to accommodate growing data and new analytics capabilities.
