Revolutionising Process Control: The Need for the FOCUS-1 Smart Meter Valve

As industries advance towards Industry 4.0, simplifying process control is essential for boosting efficiency, reducing complexity, and addressing workforce challenges. The FOCUS-1 Smart Meter Valve is engineered to meet these needs by integrating seamlessly into existing infrastructure and offering flexibility for both modern and traditional setups.

Simplifying Integration

Integrating new technology into legacy IT infrastructures can be complex, but the FOCUS-1 makes this process seamless by supporting 4-20mA analogue output and input, HART communication, Ethernet IP, and Profinet. This makes it an ideal choice for companies seeking to modernise their systems incrementally, avoiding a complete overhaul. The ease of integration minimises disruptions and facilitates a smooth transition to advanced process control solutions.

Streamlined Installation and Control Loop Management

The FOCUS-1 enhances integration further by consolidating multiple control loop components—a control valve, flow meter, pressure and temperature sensors, and controller—into a single device. This streamlines installation, significantly reducing the time and space required. Fewer components to install means a simpler setup and less operational disruption.

Additionally, the FOCUS-1 boasts powerful industrial-grade computing capabilities managed through intuitive, user-friendly interfaces. This integration allows the FOCUS-1 to handle even complex applications precisely, simplifying control loop management. Its real-time adjustments and advanced analytics make operations smoother and more reliable.
