Wireless gas detector earns HART registration

United Electric Controls’ Vanguard WirelessHART gas detector is now HART registered. This registration ensures that all WirelessHART users will be able to add Vanguard device drivers the next time they update their device descriptor libraries. It also assures users that they can add Vanguard systems to existing WirelessHART networks seamlessly and securely, says the company. The Vanguard WirelessHART detector uses a system of field-interchangeable gas sensor modules to detect methane, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, ammonia and non-methane hydrocarbon gases, including propane. The HART communication protocol is a digital communications technology deployed in the process industries. The FieldComm Group owns the HART specifications and provides specification development and training, as well as device registration.
