The RAD-WHA-1/2NPT wireless HART adapter from Phoenix Contact simplifies and speeds up the retrofitting and expansion of systems with 4–20 mA signal cables. The adapter is connected to an existing HART device in the field to transfer data wirelessly into a new system, while the original system based on just 4–20 mA remains intact.
Using the adapter, new field devices are integrated into the network without having to route signal cables. Up to four HART devices can be connected, which increases efficiency and reduces material costs. Independently of these devices, the adapter can be connected to an individual field device with 4–20 mA so that a digitised value can be sent. It is especially suitable for temporary monitoring applications and installations in Zone 2 environments, as it can be supplied with power from a 4–20 mA circuit or directly with 24 VDC.
For wireless HART, TSMP (Time Synchronized Mesh Protocol) ensures redundancy regarding time and frequency, as well as fail-safe functionality to ensure that data is transmitted reliably under challenging wireless conditions. TSMP also provides the intelligence that is necessary for meshed data transfer. The result is a wireless network with a short range that can be installed without any special know-how. It automatically adapts itself to the environment and can be expanded easily when required.
How industrial network design impacts ESG commitments Omniflex Remote Monitoring Specialists
Fieldbus & Industrial Networking
In safety-critical industries like nuclear, petrochemical and oil and gas, installing a new industrial cable network is an extremely complicated task. Gary Bradshaw, a director of industrial network specialist, Omniflex explains why this is often unnecessary as plants are likely to have existing cabling capable of being used to create new industrial networks.
