Emerson Unveils DeltaV Automation Platform for AI-Scale Data Center Management

Emerson has introduced its DeltaV Automation Platform for Data Centers, which features an automation portfolio tailored for AI-scale data centers. This platform integrates thermal, mechanical, and electrical subsystems within a scalable architecture, enhancing the monitoring and control of data center infrastructure. The significance of this development lies in its ability to reduce engineering efforts, simplify integration, and improve consistency across commissioning, operations, and maintenance. Nathan Pettus, president of Emerson’s process systems and solutions business, emphasized that data center performance is increasingly reliant on the collaboration of critical systems rather than individual components. Looking ahead, the DeltaV Automation Platform aims to provide operators with unified visibility and coordinated control, enabling predictable project commissioning and reliable large-scale operations. Emerson's platform includes the DeltaV distributed control system and DeltaV programmable logic controllers, both of which leverage AI technologies for enhanced integration of optimization models.
