  1. HART Communication Foundation, Austin, TX (United States)

HART{reg_sign} Field Communications Protocol is widely accepted in the industry as the standard for digitally enhanced 4--20mA communication with smart field instruments. A wide range of products from an increasing number of suppliers are available today, and many more are in development. The enhanced two-way communication capability of instruments using the HART protocol can significantly improve plant information management, provide solutions to today`s business challenges, and yield substantial cost savings. Initial installation/commissioning savings of $400 to $500 per instrument and annual maintenance/operations savings of $100 to $200 per instrument are commonly reported.
