Yokogawa signs up for Hart loop
interface
Yokogawa is to sell application solutions that combine its own mass flow instruments with Moore Industries' HIM Hart loop interface and monitor.
Yokogawa Electric Corporation and Moore Industries-International have signed a global preferred vendor agreement to offer Moore Industries' HIM Hart loop interface and monitor with Yokogawa's Hart multivariable transmitters and flowmeters Under the agreement, Yokogawa will sell application solutions that combine its own mass flow instruments with Moore Industries' HIM Hart loop interface and monitor

System provides secure wireless connectivity
Moore Industries' WLM employs frequency hopping spread spectrum technology and 32-bit CRC error correction for secure, robust communications.
Flexible sensors save time and money
The Worm sensor slides through the enclosure's entry port, and snaps into place without removal of the enclosure, rigid conduit, connection head or any assembly components.
Moore Industries will provide sales, marketing and application support for the HIM to Yokogawa's worldwide distribution channels.
"We are excited to work closely with a company of Yokogawa's stature and reputation".
"Yokogawa transmitters and flow meters, used in conjunction with our HIM Hart loop monitor, will provide end users with important advantages in both new and legacy applications", says Leonard W Moore, Moore Industries' founder and CEO.
The HIM will most often be specified with Yokogawa's EJX910A Hart multivariable transmitter and digital Yewflo Hart multivariable vortex flowmeter when interface with a non-Hart communicating control system is required.
Installed transparently across the transmitter's 4-20mA Hart loop, the HIM extracts up to three of the smart transmitter's process variable measurements (such as mass flow, differential pressure, static pressure or process temperature) by reading the Hart digital data that "rides" on the loop wires.
It converts the digital data to isolated analogue (4-20mA) signals ready for direct input to a non-Hart-communicating DCS or PLC.
