Overview:
This paper presents information about universal control platforms for pneumatic valves that facilitate system-wide compatibility. Impact of the development of ISO 15407 standard for five-port direction pneumatic valves and the subsequent benefits to valve manufacturers are described, and the features and functionality offered by Parker's Isys family of plug-in valves and Isysnet Field Bus system are presented in detail. Also provided is a complete understanding of various available network choices suited for seamless integration of plant-floor devices with one another, with special focus on integration of pneumatic valve systems. Advantages of Isysnet Filed Bus System's compatibility with Rockwell Automation RSLogix 5000 Software are also incorporated.
