Using the proven radio of the XYR™ 6000 family of wireless transmitters, the OWA 100 OneWireless Adapter allows HART devices to send information to the Honeywell OneWireless Network. This network includes wireless access points, which form a highly-reliable and secure industrial wireless MESH infrastructure, ensuring reliable and fast transmission of field information into Experion® Process Knowledge System (PKS) or any other control system wirelessly via OPC client or Modbus-TCP.
Each OWA 100 OneWireless Adapter scavenges power from the 4-20ma loop, in addition to being battery powered by a long-life “D” size lithium battery. The wireless adapter’s transmission range is 1,000 ft (305 m) line of sight (LOS) under ideal conditions.
