Wireless advances in Asia

Another successful season of Asia Pacific ISA100 Wireless technology seminars in Kyoto, Japan with supplier and end-user seminars in Korea and Thailand has been tabled by WCI (ISA100 Wireless Compliance Institute). In addition, WCI recently demonstrated at the JEMIMA Measurement and Control Show in Osaka, Japan last month.

“The interest and growth of the ISA100 Wireless technology in the Asia Pacific region is overwhelming,” said Toshi Hasegawa, ISA100 WCI district leader of Asia Pacific and Manager of Technology Marketing, Yokogawa Electric. “We have seen hundreds of interested participants in each event anxious to hear more about the ISA100 Wireless networking technology, which supports control over wireless, multi-vendor interoperability, robustness and security for wireless industrial control systems. Participants have been very impressed by the number of vendors that support ISA100 Wireless. Yokogawa will continue its active promotion and support for developing new ISA100 Wireless products.”

Companies participating in the Asia Pacific events included Yokogawa, Azbil, GE, Flowserve, Fuji Electric and Honeywell.

“WCI will remain committed to global technology seminars in this region and plans to further our outreach going into 2013,” according to Andre Ristaino, managing director, ISA100 WCI. “We are excited with the response from this global audience and anticipate many new companies joining ISA100 WCI in the coming year who are interested in adopting ISA100 Wireless technology.”
