Schneider Electric's Foxboro Compact 200 Series I/O fieldbus modules support more I/O modules in less space, reducing footprint up to 50 percent and offering significant potential for cost savings. In additon to producing savings in space, weight and energy consumption, this new series is compatible with multiple generations of Foxboro controllers, software and infrastructure, with the ability to mix and match I/O types on the same controller. They are especially valuable for new implementations in confined spaces, such as offshore platforms, and for adding capacity to existing installations without incurring the trouble and cost of facility expansion.
