Automated air analysis at CERN with Festo valve terminal VTSA
At CERN, the world
’
s largest particle physics laboratory,
thousands of scientists
are working hard to figure out the unsolved mysteries of physics. Their valuable
scientific research is supported by the intelligent and flexible application of automation
technology. The Festo valve terminal VTSA controls the analysis processes of the air
in the experimentation cavern of the Compact Muon Solenoid detector (CMS).
