Wireless Foundation Fieldbus HSE Network at Shell Test Lab White Paper

This white paper describes the successful setup of a wireless Foundation Fieldbus HSE network at Shell's global test lab in Amsterdam, bridging the distance between a central control room and two remote pilot plants. It covers three use cases for wireless technology in process control—wireless bridging, mobile workplaces, and wireless sensors—and details the technical solution using Hirschmann access points and ABB's 800xA system.
