Definitions
- the invention relates to a field device of automation technology and a cable gland for a field device.
- Process automation technology field devices are often used, which serve for the determination, optimization and / or influencing of process variables.
- sensors such as
- level gauges For example, level gauges, flow meters, pressure and temperature measuring devices, conductivity meters, etc., which record the corresponding process variables level, flow, pressure, temperature and conductivity.
- actuators such as valves or pumps, on the flow of a liquid in a pipe section or the level in one
- field devices are all devices that are used close to the process and that provide or process process-relevant information.
- field devices are thus also understood as remote I / Os (electrical interfaces), radio adapters or in general devices which are arranged on the field level.
- I / Os electrical interfaces
- radio adapters or in general devices which are arranged on the field level.
- a variety of such field devices is manufactured and sold by the company Endress + Hauser.
- the higher-level units are control systems or control units, such as a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or PLC (Programmable Logic Controller).
- the higher-level units serve, among other things, for process control, process visualization, process monitoring and commissioning of the field devices.
- the process variables or data acquired by the field devices, in particular by sensors, are transmitted via the connected fieldbus to one or possibly also to a plurality of higher-level unit (s).
- data transmission from the higher-level unit via the bus system to the field devices is required; this can serve, for example, for diagnostic purposes.
- the field device is operated via the field bus from the higher-level unit.
- field devices it is also increasingly possible for field devices to transmit data wirelessly (also referred to as “wireless” in the following), whether to transmit process data, that is to say substantially measured values, to the higher-level unit or even to one
- the field devices must be equipped with a corresponding radio antenna which is set up for the purpose of emitting and receiving electromagnetic waves.
- the equipment of field devices with radio antennas has the
- the field device housing usually made of a conductive material, in particular metal, are formed, which ensure that the electromagnetic waves only greatly attenuated or possibly. not to be let through either. This in turn means that the range of the radio signal for wireless data transmission with the field device is very low.
- a field device is proposed, for example in DE 10 2014 1 18 391 A1, in which electromagnetic waves emitted by a primary antenna arranged inside the field device are coupled to a first secondary antenna within the housing and then from the first secondary antenna are transmitted to a second secondary antenna outside the housing so as to be decoupled from the second secondary antenna.
- a cable gland which is introduced into the housing opening, wherein at least one cable is inserted through the cable gland in the housing and connected to the field device electronics, so that can be communicated via the cable wired to the field device electronics;
- an antenna for transmitting or receiving electromagnetic waves having at least one specific wavelength wherein the antenna is inserted in the cable gland in such a way that the
- Antenna surrounds the cable at least partially and the antenna is connected via a coaxial conductor with the field device electronics, so that can be communicated wirelessly via the antenna with the field device electronics.
- the antenna is such
- the antenna is designed such that it is tuned for a predetermined frequency or wavelength. Common frequencies for, for example, a near field communication are usually at 2.4 GHz (WLAN, Bluetooth, ANT).
- the antenna can be embodied by corresponding antenna structures such that it serves to transmit data in accordance with the Bluetooth standard IEEE 802.15 or a variant modified therefrom, for example Bluetooth LE (English for "low energy").
- the antenna is formed on the basis of a flexible substrate, in particular a flexible printed circuit board, and is inserted into the cable gland such that the flexible substrate rests against an inner wall of the cable gland or is introduced into the inner wall ,
- the development can provide that the flexible substrate comprises polyimide.
- the antenna is formed on the basis of a metallic, in particular flexible wire and is inserted into the cable gland in such a way that the metallic wire rests against an inner wall of the cable gland or is introduced into the inner wall.
- Cable gland includes a PG cable gland, in particular an M20 PG cable gland.
- FIG 1 shows an embodiment of the field device according to the invention.
- Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the field device 1 according to the invention, which comprises a metallic housing 2, in which a
- Field device electronics 4 is arranged.
- the field device electronics 4 is designed such that it has terminals, via which a cable 6, for example.
- a two-wire cable 12 or a four-wire cable 12 can be connected.
- the cable 6 may be formed either as a two-wire line 12, so that both the data and energy for power supply over a total of two
- Wires of the field device electronics are supplied, or as a four-wire line 12, so that the data and energy over a total of four wires
- Field device electronics 4 are supplied. To the cable 6 coming from outside the housing 2 to the in the
- the metallic housing 2 arranged terminals 13 to be able to lead, the metallic housing 2 has a housing opening 3.
