What are the benefits of H1?
From a business standpoint, FOUNDATION technology delivers savings in total installation costs. H1 fieldbus reduces instrument wiring, which means less termination and fewer screwdriver turns. The technology reduces hardware requirements and lowers Capital Expenditures (CAPEX). FOUNDATION fieldbus primarily reduces Operating Expenses (OPEX) through improved plant efficiencies, better asset management, and reduced maintenance requirements. Specific benefits of FOUNDATION technology include: reduced wiring, multi-variables from a single multi-channel field instrument, simpler integration and easier maintenance. Ultimately, FOUNDATION technology will be the key to greater manufacturing flexibility and productivity, higher quality products, and improved regulatory compliance. This can be achieved by predictive maintenance scheduling and better upkeep enabled by the diagnostics, performance analysis data, and operational statistics. Better adjusted and properly calibrated devices ensure low
