In-plant communication may make use of a combination of different communication protocols. Yokogawa is mindful of these customer requirements and has products using Wireless ISA 100, BRAIN, Foundation Fieldbus, FDT/DTM, Profibus and Hart protocols. Traditional analog 4/20 mA is also available. Visit Hall 5, Stand E1 to see Yokagawa’s Fieldbus demonstration station which will show the different protocols in use for communication.
