Foundation Fieldbus is the basis for modern
control and automation products.
 Advanced functions added to field
instruments
 Expand view for the operator
 Enable migration of functions the field
 Reduce wiring and installation costs
 Reduce I/O equipment by one-half or
more
 Provide increased information flow to
enable automation of engineering,
maintenance, and support functions
