Description

This is not a PROFIBUS course in general, but a PROFIBUS PA course! Yes, a course completely focused on the application of networks for process automation interconnecting all instrumentation (for example: temperature transmitters, pressure, positioners, etc.) through this variant of the PROFIBUS DP protocol.PROFIBUS PA networks are gaining more and more space within the industrial automation area, instruments that were analog and transmitted information at 4-20mA, now become digital and provide more information to help with asset management, and how could it be any different? , they begin to communicate on a network.In this course you will understand what Fieldbus networks are and how PROFIBUS PA fits into this name, why it is so important in the technological development of industrial plants and the entire practical part of a project, from its conception in engineering to installation and commissioning of network segments.You will also see all the special care that must be taken during installation and all the tricks to have a stable and functional network with the shortest possible downtime!This is unique material, which you will not find in other general Profibus courses.If you work with this type of network, it's worth checking out all the knowledge available in this course!
