What is foundation Fieldbus

Foundation Fieldbus is an all-digital, serial, two-way communications system that serves as the base-level network in a plant or factory automation environment. It is an open architecture, developed and administered by FieldComm Group.

Foundation Fieldbus is an open standard, which allows you to use Foundation Fieldbus products from different vendors interchangeably.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Students will become familiar with the basic concepts and new terminology related to the FOUNDATION Fieldbus integrated architecture. The technology introduces new terminology that control personnel must be confident with if they intend to be successful. Students will understand the key strategies for wiring and installation of a fieldbus network. Special emphasis will be made on such design issues as power requirements, device types and topologies

BACKGROUND AND PREREQUISITES

In this course we assumes little or no prior knowledge of FOUNDATION technology, but students should be familiar with process control. Students should already be acquainted with existing 4-20mA technology found in present day installations.
