1. Introduction
Many applications of Pressure devices and Flow Meters/Controllers are
moving to increasing use of automation. Automation comes in many forms:
PLC’s (Programmable Logic Controllers, DCS’s (Distributed Control
Systems, and PC-based solutions. Digital communications from these varied
automation systems and the devices they measure and control are a very
effective means of not only accomplishing more effective and rapid system
integration, but also providing greatly improved system diagnostics and
maintainability. DeviceNet™
is an open digital protocol capable of high
speeds and easy system connectivity. Brooks Instrument has several of its
devices available on this popular networking standard, and is a member of
ODVA™ (Open DeviceNet Vendors Association), the governing standard
body for DeviceNet.
