Example 2: Wireless communication in combination with Sakura emulation
The tank hub supports Emerson’s wireless technology, which is based on WirelessHART,
the emerging industry standard for wireless field networks. The Emerson Wireless THUM
™
Adapter acts as a wireless data link between the tank hub and an Emerson Wireless
Gateway.
The tank hub can simultaneously combine wireless and Sakura communication. The
primary field bus communicates via Sakura MDP/V1, and the secondary field bus via
WirelessHART. With this tank hub communication configuration, control room redundancy
is achieved.
