Foundation Fieldbus®
The Rotork Foundation Fieldbus module connects directly
onto the standard Foundation H1 bus system (IEC 61158-1).
The ability to report extensive actuator feedback within a
single input block as well as system diagnostic information
makes Rotork the first choice for use with a Foundation
Fieldbus system. The device has link active scheduler
capability as well as multiple digital and analogue function
block capability, inputs and outputs. DD files describe the
device capabilities to the host system.

• Foundation ITK inter-operability certified

• Fully compliant with IEC61158-2 standard
• Includes link master and LAS capability
• Independent HIST approval by major DCS vendors
• Full H1 field capability

See PUB089-001 for further details.

HART®
Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART) is a process
control communication protocol. The HART signal consists
of two parts, the analogue 4-20 mA current loop and a
superimposed digital (variable frequency) signal. Traditionally
the 4-20 mA loop is used for control and the superimposed
digital signal for feedback, diagnostics and configuration.
Along with the use of standard HART function codes, a DD
file describes the device parameters which can be accessed by
a host or handheld device. The majority of user configurable
settings can be made over the HART interface.

• Up to 63 devices on each network

• Electronic Device Description (DD) files
• HART 7 compatible
