Foxboro
Foxboro control system components in this collection are used primarily for installed Foxboro I/A Series platforms, which are now part of Schneider Electric’s industrial automation portfolio. The products focus on FBMs (Fieldbus Modules), CPUs, controllers, and termination assemblies required for system maintenance, spare replacement, and incremental expansion. This category is intended for users maintaining existing Foxboro systems rather than deploying new control architectures.

Key Functions of a SCADA System in Industrial Automation
Explore the four core functions of SCADA—data acquisition, communication, visualization, and control—and understand how this system powers industrial automation, process optimization, and remote supervision.
Instrumentation Earthing in Industrial Automation Systems
In industrial automation, earthing provides a safe, low-resistance path for electrical fault currents. It protects both equipment and personnel by diverting excessive current directly into the ground. Proper earthing is fundamental to PLC, DCS, and control system reliability, ensuring stable operation even under fault conditions.
