(3) Migration from Existing uXL Systems
The external dimensions of the FFCS are the same as those of
the control unit section of an existing uXL control system for
small- to medium-scale plants. It is therefore possible to
migrate to the FFCS by simply replacing the control unit
section with the station. This feature enables the user to reuse
its existing assets to the maximum possible degree and update
the existing system with the minimum investment in the plant
and equipment.
