The Architecture of a Flow Control Loop
A typical flow control loop in a plant includes several key elements. A flow or pressure transmitter generates a 4–20 mA analog signal, which is processed by a control system, such as a distributed control system (DCS) or a programmable logic controller (PLC).
In process industries, power reliability is a core requirement for safe and efficient operations. Production plants, refineries, offshore platforms, and chemical facilities operate in environments where power interruptions can lead to safety risks, production losses, and regulatory issues.
G.M. International (GMI), a global benchmark in intrinsic and functional safety hardware for Operational Technology (OT), and AINEXXO, a deep-tech pioneer in AI-powered OT, have announced a strategic alliance to deliver a transformative industrial innovation: the Self-Aware and Self-Protecting Factory.
