AUSTIN, TEXAS (February 10, 2011) – Emerson Process Management, an Emerson (NYSE: EMR) global business, has again earned top rankings in CONTROL magazine’s annual Readers’ Choice survey of process automation users. This marks the 18th consecutive year that Emerson products were chosen first in more product categories than any competitor.
Emerson earned 24 first-place wins – more than the next three competitors combined. In addition to categories for advanced process control software, asset management software, wireless infrastructure, and several measurement and valve technologies, users also named Emerson first for its overall capabilities in continuous regulatory control and batch process automation.
“We appreciate this vote of confidence in Emerson’s ability to help our customers meet their toughest challenges,” said Steve Sonnenberg, president, Emerson Process Management. “Our goal is to continue earning that confidence – not just in an annual survey but day after day.”
Emerson’s intelligent measurement, control, and analytical instruments and its automation systems and software are part of its industry-leading PlantWeb™ digital plant architecture, which helps process operations improve efficiency and profitability.
