Control Engineering Webcast: Justifying the Investment in FOUNDATION Fieldbus Technology in a Brownfield Environment
Tuesday, October 18, 2011 at 2 p.m. ET/1 p.m. CT/11 a.m. PT
While the greatest savings using fieldbus technology are realized in new installations, it can also be a major advantage in modernizing brownfield facilities, as illustrated by a nuclear power plant example:
•Move from pneumatic and analog systems to fully digital instrumentation and control in one step
•Save cost and effort by avoiding intermediate and stepwise approaches
•Creating future-proof field networks and I/O compatible with legacy and modern control platforms
•Lay groundwork for more sophisticated control and asset management systems
Speakers:
Larry O’Brien, Global Marketing Manager, Fieldbus Foundation
Michael H. Miller, PE, Senior Consulting Engineer, Sargent & Lundy, LLC.
Peter Welander, Content Manager & Moderator, Control Engineering
