HART Interface Solutions from Pepperl+Fuchs consist of two HART Multiplexer Systems for multiple signal loops and a HART Loop Converter for single loop applications. The Multiplexer is used to connect HART field devices to Asset Management Systems like AMS™ Suite: Intelligent Device Manager from Emerson Process Management. At the heart of HART Interface Solution (HIS), the HART Multiplexer acts like a gateway device, routing communications between the maintenance workstation PC and the HART field devices. It interrogates each HART device, retrieves device information, and stores it in an internal database. This information is made available by the AMS Device Manager or PACTware. The HART Multiplexer also acts as a message coordinator for communication between the maintenance workstation PC and the HART devices. For a single loop solution, the HART Loop Converter allows access to all process variables provided by a field device and transfers them to conventional 4...20 mA loop. This enables it to make use of the hidden measurements done by many field devices and feed them to conventional DCS Systems.

Pepperl+Fuchs offers a broad portfolio of electrical equipment and solutions for installation and control of machinery and electrical networks in harsh environments and explosion-hazardous areas. Various types of protection and enclosure variants along with a high level of flexibility allow the design of the most efficient control and distribution solutions for any application and industrial environment. Experienced project engineers at the Pepperl+Fuchs Solution Engineering Centers—located worldwide—will support the user to find the most efficient solution for his specific requirements.

The future of production THE DAWN OF THE SMART FACTORY: New communication models will make it possible for production plants and logistics systems to basically manage themselves in the future. Cyber-physical systems that use the Internet to communicate with each other are used as the technical basis for this endeavour (Internet of Things). The product, for example, introduces its own production information into the manufacturing process in machine-readable form. Based on this data, the path of the product is controlled by the production plants and the individual process steps.
