The WirelessHART adapter can be used in a number of different applications:

• Access to installed basis
  Diagnostic information is obtained from existing wired HART devices thanks to the permanent electrical connection of a WirelessHART adapter and power from the 4 to 20 mA loop. This information is sent to central system-based asset management software such as SITRANS MDS.
• Status monitoring of the plant
  Wireless devices are mounted at critical points in the plant which are not usually connected to the control room due to difficult access or high wiring costs. Better data flow and diagnostics increase plant reliability, transparency and safety.
• Process optimization
  Temporary installation of a 4 to 20mA or standard HART device together with a SITRANS AW210 WirelessHART adapter allows easier, flexible monitoring and plant optimization at lower costs. SITRANS AW210 can also be usefully used where there is already an external power supply, or one is needed anyway.
• Process monitoring
  Measured values, for example from tanks or silos, are transmitted to a higher-level system at regular intervals together with the device status. SITRANS AW210 is particularly easy to use with 4-wire devices, as they have an external power supply.
