HART communication*1 is a means of transmitting multiple signals by superimposing long-standard 4-20 mA DC analog signals on digital signals.
The figure below is an example of connecting field instruments and upstream devices using HART communication compatible VJA1/H, VJH1/HC signal conditioners. With these signal conditioners, you can output analog control signals as well as TAG and other measuring information from the field instruments to the upstream devices, and at the same time output analog signals to recorders and other monitoring devices. Additionally, the upstream devices can perform zero point/span adjustment and set various parameters on the output devices in the field (HART communication enabled control valves, etc.).
Note: This requires that the devices on both the field and DCS sides can send and receive HART signals, and the parameters that can be set depends on the specifications of the devices performing HART communication.
*The above configuration also allows for D-series nest-housed converters (DA7, DC7).
*1: HART stands for "highway addressable remote transducer."
HART was put forward by Fisher-Rosemount Corp. (USA) as an open standard for industrial control field networks. There is currently an organization called the HCF (HART Communication Foundation). Used extensively throughout the world, the standard defines a communication protocol through which digital signals are superimposed on analog signals, and transmitted.

Exploration et Gaz
L'industrie en amont comprend des activités offshore et onshore, notamment l'automatisation des têtes de puits, le fractionnement, la complétion et la séparation pour récupérer et préparer le pétrole brut et le gaz naturel souterrains ou sous-marins.
Lorsque le pétrole est ramené à la surface, il doit être séparé avant d'être transporté. Les étapes de séparation primaire et secondaire distribuent généralement le flux de gaz, le flux d'eau et le flux de pétrole dans une séparation en trois phases. Le transport du gaz nécessite un gazoduc et peut inclure un processus de fractionnement en amont avant le transport. Les liquides peuvent être placés dans des réservoirs ou des pipelines et envoyés pour traitement, ce qui nécessite des mesures de niveau précises.
