6. Bus including drivers and power source Bus Definition Substrate Definition Point of Bus Interface Point of Substrate Interface NeSSI Substrates by: Swagelok, Parker or CIRCOR Component Electrical Implementation Bus electronics; Intrinsic Safety barriers; and Standardized interface to component electronics SAM – including Bus source and software Proprietary component-specific electronics by component vendor Proprietary mechanical NeSSI component by component vendors Assembly and certification of the complete component

7. Conditions To Be Considered In Bus Design • Overall system configuration and size • Minimum • Typical • Maximum • Ambient environment • Impact on bus external to system enclosure • System environment • Impact on bus internal to system enclosure • Impact on components and devices in system • Component capabilities and requirements • Power issues • Native capabilities and implementation methods regarding safety concerns • Market volume: available development resource commitment and impact on bus interface development

8. Bus Design Criteria Power Requirements: Sensors: 10-40ma Controllers: 20-70ma Valve pilots: 80-350ma • Capacity • Number of devices • Types of devices • Participating suppliers • Physical Issues / Installation • IP ratings / protection • Ambient conditions • Certifications / safety • Chemical resistance • Electrical • Length • Installed base / compatibility • Load capacity / load management • Power distribution • Interruption / interchange • Reliability / EMI / RFI • Instances / continuity • Software • Device representation • Device function • Maintenance issues • Configuration / addressing / identity Number of components on bus: Typical: 5-15 Common: 20-30 Maxum: 200 Design goal for flammability ignition temperature to be T4 (135°C) with minimum at least T3 (200°C). Component ambient temperature to be >=70°C Capability for the standard functions to be implemented in a variety of ways.

9. Cabling Issues • Cable size, bend radius, height • Connection methods and system design • Jacket materials • Cost

10. Other Product Marketability Issues • System responsibility • Supplier: Integrator, component manufacturer, bus provider • System elements: Bus master, components, cables and peripherals • Field support • Training • Configuration and implementation difficulties • Issues with interchangeability • Spare parts and long term support • Field diagnosis and repair plan • Component support life: longevity in a “capital” investment versus short life span of electronic and software techniques
