The FieldGate SWG50 is a gateway for WirelessHART networks. It enables WirelessHART field devices to communicate with each other and manages network security and connectivity. The FieldGate converts and stores data from wireless field devices in a format that is compatible with other systems. It has Ethernet interfaces for connecting to host applications such as SCADA tools.
FieldGate is the perfect fit for WirelessHART adapters like the FieldPort SWA50 or SWA70. It can be used for remote monitoring or as a digital second channel by using extended information about measurements and/or diagnostic information. It is compatible with the FieldEdge SGC500 for the integration into Netilion, a cloud-based solution from Endress+Hauser.
Benefits
Easy commissioning and diagnosis of a self-organized WirelessHART network with up to 100 WirelessHART devices
Ideal for operations with limited space in the cabinet, since it is compact and can be mounted on DIN rails
Flexible use of FieldGate in the hazardous areas of a plant
Seamless integration of field device information into higher-level system applications using standardized protocols such as Modbus TCP or HART-IP
Digital communications now provide a wealth of additional diagnostic and other information, enabling operational insights unachievable with simple 4-20mA measurements alone.
