Presented in Manchester in April and then in November in conjunction with the popular WWEM show at Telford, this highly practical seminar addresses the key issues arising from the use of digital fieldbus communications technologies in process and hybrid industries.
With 50% of the seminar time dedicated to live demonstrations and most of the remainder taken up with practical advice based on actual experience, the programme will be of great value to Instrument Technicians/Engineers,C&I Engineers and System Engineers involved in design, operation and maintenance of modern process plant. Covering the use of PROFIBUS PA in key application areas such as Pulp & Paper, Chemical, Utilities, Pharmaceutical, Oil & Gas today, it focuses on the practical aspects of using PROFIBUS in process industry applications from system design and hazardous area considerations through to maintenance and fault-finding.
Attendance is free of charge to pre-registered delegates from the User community, i.e. companies that own, operate, design, build or maintain process plant.
This event will provide delegates with an excellent networking opportunity and the ability to speak to our experts whom, we promise, will not force you to buy anything.
If you’d like to learn how to simplify your PROFIBUS process application … don’t miss this one-day Practical Aspects of Profibus in Process Seminar!
