Welcome to PI UK

The UK home of PROFIBUS, PROFINET, IO-Link and omlox



PI UK was founded in 1993 to promote the use of PROFIBUS in the UK. More recently it has added PROFINET and IO-Link to the range of technologies supported by the group and is now known as PROFIBUS and PROFINET International UK, or PI UK for short. It is a very active organisation representing the needs of members and users throughout the United Kingdom and other English-speaking countries.

With our world-renowned PI Training Centres at Manchester Metropolitan University and Control Specialists Ltd we run many events including Certified PROFIBUS & PROFINET Engineer and Installer courses, commissioning and maintenance courses and courses covering system and product design.


We also present free-to-attend seminars around the country covering practical aspects of PROFIBUS, PROFINET, IO-Link and omlox in Process and Factory Automation as well as subjects such as functional safety and system security.

If you'd like to be kept up to date with news of the UK’s many seminars, training courses and certification opportunities on offer from PI UK in conjunction with its members, then there's a UK regional newsletter. You can view example copies by visiting the archive site and sign up safely at our registration page
