Emerson Process Management Press Briefing -
"Now I'm not one to look a gift horse in
the mouth and the brolly was already in
service on the walk back to Victoria, but
where's this all going to end - a nice pair of
Schneider branded secateurs, an Invensys
central heating boiler or some Honeywell
branded underpants?..."
IAI March 2001

A press conference held in London today ended with an unusual presentation. Andrew Bond, the publisher of the perceptive and incisive Industrial Automation Insider (IAI), had made some comments on the distribution of "freebies" by companies last March which was taken up by Emerson Project Management's Director Travis Hesketh who presented him with a truly unique pair of unmentionables engraved with the Emerson escutchon.
Despite many pleas from the assembled hacks he did not try them for size then and there despite the sugestion that he ware them over his cloths a la Superman.
Mutterings were heard saying how appropriate that Emerson Process Management should present FOUNDATION clothing!

The new 3051S Series of Instrumentation and DeltaV Plantweb Alerts.
The 3051S Series..."stands out as the most significant development this year... they boldly introduced a new design that is as creative as it is practical...does away with problematic impulse lines will forever change how we look at..." pressure transmitters, according to an analysis from ARC Advisory Group in September.
Modern intelligent field instrumentation and devices provide self-checking and fault diagnostics - both for themselves and their process connections. Up to now, any fault conditions detected are treated as normal process alarms by all control systems, so the operator in the control room has to call on a maintenance screen or site engineer to investigate further. Control systems have been trailing behind in their use of field intelligence. Now the latest version 6.3 of DeltaV from Emerson Process Management takes the next step, and provides an instant operator display and identification of all advisory and fault alarms directly on the operator screen, using PlantWeb Alerts.
