CEN Approves WirelessHART as European National Standard

July 26, 2010
Approval by National Committees of 31 countries confirms global acceptance of WirelessHART technology by users and suppliers
The HART Communication Foundation announced that the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) has approved the WirelessHART specification as a European National Standard (EN 62591). CEN released the standard to CENELEC, the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization, whose members are the national electrotechnical committees of 31 European countries. CENELEC approved the WirelessHART European Standard on June, 1, 2010."In March, the WirelessHART specification was approved by the International Electrotechnical Commission as a full international standard (IEC 62591Ed. 1.0)," says Ron Helson, executive director of the HART Communication Foundation. "Approval as a European National Standard further confirms acceptance of the technology by users and suppliers as a technically sound, reliable and secure solution for wireless communication in process automation."For more information, visit:  http://www.hartcomm.org.
