‘Profibus’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Watlow's Profibus DP simplifies plant design from Watlow, which we summarised at the time by saying "Watlow has brought out the Profibus DP (Decentralized Peripherals) with EZ-Zone PM and EZ-Zone RM integrated temperature controllers. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release AC drives permit wider use of magnet motors from Parker Hannifin - Electromechanical and Drives Division: "Parker Hannifin has launched a range of AC drives that allows energy-efficient permanent magnet motors to be used in a wide range of pump, fan and compressor applications. ".
 
In October 2009, we covered the news from Hima Paul Hildebrandt - take a look at Himax increases chlorine plant availability which says: "Himax, the safety system from Hima Paul Hildebrandt for medium-sized and large applications, is safeguarding the chlorine production process at Vinnolit's Gendorf facility. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Rotork Controls, Rotork provides valve actuators for Severn Trent, as well as MVD transmitter technology enhances Emerson meters from Emerson Process Management, and Trio adds interface to motion coordinator range from Trio Motion Technology.
