Extension for 2011 HART Plant of the Year Nominees

The HART Communication Foundation has extended the deadline to receive nominations for the 2011 HART Plant of the Year Award to August 15. End users and manufacturers from all world areas are encouraged to enter their plant or customer’s plant for recognition. The HART Plant of the Year is the only international award presented to end user companies in the process automation industry to recognize the exceptional application of HART Communication. Nomination forms and details are available at its website.

"We are seeking a plant that has taken the capabilities of HART instruments beyond configuration and calibration or is using real-time diagnostics and process variables in HART-enabled devices integrated with control, information, asset management or safety systems," says Ron Helson, HART Communication Foundation Executive Director. "Selection of the HART Plant of the Year is based on a plant’s use of HART Communication not on the size of the installation."
