The award is presented annually to recognise innovative use of Hart Communication in real-time industrial process plant applications around the globe.
The Hart Plant of the Year is unique in the process automation industry.
It is the only public award presented to end user companies to recognise ingenuity in the application of Hart technology.
The award showcases end user companies and their suppliers who have demonstrated creativity in using the full capabilities of Hart Communication technology.
"Hart is used in process plant applications worldwide".
"At least 14 million Hart-enabled devices have been installed since 1990".
"In today's economy the challenge is finding better ways to use what you have".
"With this award, we recognise the innovators who are meeting that challenge", says HCF Executive Director Ron Helson.
Nominations should include a description of how the plant uses the intelligent capabilities of Hart-enabled devices in real-time applications with plant control, safety and asset management systems to improve operations, lower costs and increase plant availability.
2005 Hart Plant of the Year recipients will be recognised at the ISA Expo 2005, and application stories will be published in major trade magazines and on the worldwide web.
