Our Technologies Deliver Open Connectivity
Enabling sensor-to-cloud data collaboration
Industrial Communications
Modern industrial communication enables seamless data exchange between field devices and control systems—supporting real-time monitoring, automation, and smarter decision-making across operations. Technologies like HART and FOUNDATION Fieldbus enhance connectivity, ensure data accuracy, and improve operational efficiency with support for multi-vendor interoperability. Advancements such as HART-IP and WirelessHART extend this value: HART-IP delivers high-speed Ethernet-based communication for remote access and IT/OT integration, while WirelessHART enables secure, scalable wireless networking through a self-organizing mesh. SafeHART builds on the trusted HART protocol to support functional safety requirements, including IEC 61508, making it ideal for safety instrumented systems (SIS) while allowing reuse of existing infrastructure. Together, these technologies empower digital transformation by enabling predictive maintenance, remote diagnostics, and real-time insights—helping industrial environments become safer, smarter, and more connected.
Device Integration and Management
Intelligent device management standards are crucial for streamlining operations and enhancing interoperability in complex manufacturing environments. These standards, particularly FDI and FDT/DTM, address the challenges of integrating diverse devices from multiple vendors across various protocols within OT engineering applications (DSC, PLC, AMS, configuration tools, etc.), enhancing intelligent device and lifecycle management initiatives.
Enterprise Connectivity
To complete your digital transformation architecture, you need both physical and semantically meaningful protocol-independent information models. Based on the OPC UA information model, PA-DIM standardizes how device data is structured and shared, making it easily accessible for analytics, monitoring, and optimization. Ethernet-APL provides high-speed, two-wire, Ethernet-based communication with power and data over a single cable, that is installable in hazardous areas. These collaborative technologies bridge the gap between OT and IT, delivering real-time insights and enabling more intelligent decision-making that can significantly enhance the entire automation ecosystem.

Plant of the Year Awards
Our technologies innovating the industrial automation landscape
Daikin's - Kashima Plant
Daikin estimates that in the year leading to receiving the award the company saved approximately USD $525,000 through predictive AI detection that combines process data and HART-enabled devices.
Dow’s Texas - Chemical
If one’s seeking to understand the difference that data-based decision-making can make in process performance, one need look no further than Dow’s Texas Operations (TXO), on the Gulf Coast in Freeport.
HMEL’s Guru Gobind Singh Refinery
Strategically positioned in Bathinda, Punjab, HMEL’s Guru Gobind Singh refinery is an industrial anchor for the economic development of northern India. The $5 billion USD, the 225,000-bpd refinery uses FCG technologies to make the facility run at its optimal while reducing costs.
Wanhua Chemical Group
Chemical materials producer makes full use of FieldComm Group FOUNDATION Fieldbus, HART and WirelessHART technologies in large-scale operation.
Chevron Phillips Chemical
Reducing the time for site acceptance testing (SAT), faster commissioning and loop-check, and record time for production startup were key savings generated by using HART and FOUNDATION Fieldbus.
Shell Prelude Floating Liquefied Natural Gas
Utilizing device templates reduces commissioning and loop check time by 80% while remote access to advanced diagnostics enables predictive maintenance.
MOL Danube - Refinery
In one of the all-time greatest cases of not resting on laurels, MOL Danube Refinery near Budapest has become the first repeat winner of FieldComm Group (FCG) Plant of the Year Award in its almost 15-year history.
Chevron Phillips Chemical
Reducing the time for site acceptance testing (SAT), faster commissioning and loop-check, and record time for production startup were key savings generated by using HART and FOUNDATION Fieldbus.
MRPL - Refinery and Petrochemical
Utilizing installation savings and advanced diagnostics from over 9,000 FOUNDATION Fieldbus and 5,000 HART devices, MRPL saved over $6,000,000 in project cost alone!
SRF Dahej - Chemical Plant
SRF’s specialty chemical plant was named FieldComm Group’s 2025 Plant of the Year for achieving over $10.7 million in cost savings through a digital transformation that integrated HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, and WirelessHART technologies. By leveraging IIoT, data-driven analytics, and predictive maintenance, the facility enhanced efficiency and safety, while advancing a roadmap to adopt Ethernet-APL for future connectivity.
