Participants will receive an update on Foundation Fieldbus technology and benefits, see the products exhibits, and talk to the experts face to face. Sponsors include: ABB, Azbil, Emerson, Honeywell, Invensys, Leoni, MTL, Pepperl+Fuchs, Rockwell, SMAR, Stahl, Turck, and Yokogawa.

This program is free; however registration is required. Please complete the form below to register.


• Summary
Cameras, phones, mail, music recordings, television, musical instruments, and many other things are going digital, so it is no wonder that for major projects in the process industries the control system does away with 4-20 mA and on/off. Learn how gradual incorporation of little improvements over the past decade has overcome limitations of first generation Fieldbus systems. New technology enhancements to Fieldbus have made it easier to use, better performing, and even more cost effective for both project team and plant operations. FOUNDATION fieldbus has become attractive for large and small projects in all industries.
The knowledge shared in this year's seminar is based on feedback from last year's road show in the region.

Thousands of plants have been built on FOUNDATION fieldbus. The most successful projects implemented fieldbus knowing it is not only for transmitters and control valves but many other devices, with an awareness of installation pitfalls and how to avoid them, and commissioning the fieldbus-way, not the old way. Learn how.

Thousands of plants are controlled by FOUNDATION fieldbus. Again, the plants that operate fieldbus most efficiently enjoy tighter control using familiar PID, and have rewritten their procedures to benefit from device diagnostics in their daily maintenance practices. Learn how.

The Fieldbus Foundation has over the past decade continuously improved the technology and product testing with the result that the difficulties encountered by early adopters of fieldbus are now a thing of the past. Development continues with many future additions to the technology. See the roadmap for the future direction of fieldbus.
