All industries running process systems can benefit from implementing IIOT using Wireless HART to monitor and control process line equipment from any mobile device.
WirelessHART solutions easily enable industry to take advantage of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Industry 4.0 solutions enabled by WirelessHART support industrial wireless sensor networks that can bring legacy devices into a comprehensive system.
WHAT ARE HART COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS?
WirelessHART is based on an existing protocol called Highway Addressable Remote Transducer Protocol (HART). HART is a bi-directional communication protocol for industrial process measurement and control applications. As an open, vendor independent standard, HART is the most broadly supported protocol for the process industry globally.
As a building block of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), HART provides data access between host systems and intelligent field instruments. Communication occurs between any two HART-enabled devices – typically a smart field device and a control or condition monitoring system. HART allows communication between software applications, including process control systems, safety systems, enterprise asset management, SCADA systems, hand-held configurators, and data historian applications.
HOW DOES HART COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL WORK?
HART is called a hybrid protocol because it provides two simultaneous communication channels – analog and digital. It can communicate a single variable using a 4-20mA analog signal, and at the same time can communicate information on a digital signal superimposed on the standard 4-20mA current loop. An analog signal alone would send information only one way (either from the device to the host or from the host to the device). Digital information can travel in both directions using HART. The analog and digital channels together provide a complete field communications solution that is low cost, easy to design, simple to use, and extremely reliable.
The data gathered from devices through HART enables efficiencies like condition monitoring and the automation of predictive maintenance. With HART, devices communicate additional types of standard information beyond the single process variable, such as:
Device status and diagnostic alertsProcess variables and unitsBasic configuration parametersManufacturer and device tag informationLoop current and percentage range
WIRELESS HART
WirelessHART provides wireless sensor networking technology based on HART, offering a powerful way to design and implement industrial wireless sensor networks. WirelessHART was developed as a multi-vendor, interoperable wireless standard defined for the requirements of process field device networks. Approved as international standard IEC62591, WirelessHART is a free, open standard that is supported by dozens of vendors.
HOW DOES WIRELESS HART WORK?
WirelessHART uses mesh networking technology, meaning that each device in the network can serve as a router for messages from other devices. A device can just forward its message to the next closest device rather than having to communicate directly to a gateway. As a result, the range of the network is extended. Redundant communication routes increase reliability, especially considering the difficult radio environment found in most process facilities.
Devices can also communicate directly with the central control system, as long as they have a clear line of sight of approximately 820 feet. Whether devices communicate directly or using mesh networking technology, the communication is quick and 99.999% reliable.
Industrial wireless sensor networks using WirelessHART have three main elements:
Field devices. Wireless field devices connect to process or plant equipment. A field device could either be a device with WirelessHART built in or an existing installed HART-enabled device with a WirelessHART adapter attached to it.Gateways. Gateways enable communication between WirelessHART devices and host applications connected either to a high-speed backbone or to another existing plant communications network.A network manager. The network manager configures the network, managing message routes, scheduling communications between devices, and monitoring network health. The network manager can be integrated into the host application, gateway, or process automation controller.
For flexibility to meet different application requirements, the WirelessHART standard supports multiple messaging modes such as:
one-way publishing of process and control values,spontaneous notification by exception,ad-hoc request/response,auto-segmented block transfers of large data sets
These capabilities allow communications to be tailored to application requirements, which reduces both power usage and overhead. In turn, these applications allow plants to implement true Industry 4.0 advances.
WIRELESS HART ADVANTAGES
Wireless HART has several advantages over traditional communication protocols. WirelessHART is:
more secure than traditional communication protocols, since the information is highly encryptedlicense free and widely supportedwireless, which eliminates the expense of running new wires from sensors, while allowing collection of information that was previously stranded on the instrumentcompatible with existing HART devices, tools, and commands
