The North America safety I/O modules market is estimated to be worth USD XX billion in 2016 and is projected to witness a CAGR of XX.XX% during the forecast period to reach USD XX billion by 2021.

The safety input-output modules provide all the basic advantages that the traditional distributed input/output safety systems provide. With the help of these new modules, one can control and monitor their safety devices. One can also detect a failure at input/output and field device levels, along with enhancing the operator protection. The growing technological advancements have improved the safety parameters associated with these input/output modules, making their use in the hazardous zones even more feasible. This technological growth is bound to bring more improvements in the quality of the safety in input/output modules in the future.

North America Safety I/O Modules Market-Market Dynamics

The US is one of the top five countries that import the highest number of high-voltage protection equipment as well as low-voltage equipment, accounting for an import value of nearly USD 718 million (for high-voltage protection equipment) and a USD 9.26 billion (for low-voltage protection equipment). The US has the largest and most technologically developed economy in the world, with a positive per capita GDP. Business firms in the US enjoy a greater degree of flexibility compared to businesses in Japan and Western Europe in terms of innovation and expansion. Canada is equipped with a high-tech industrial economy and resembles the US in its market-oriented economic system, production pattern, and high living standards.
