Conditions for mounting
Note
The following mounting conditions must be adhered to
To avoid attenuation of electromagnetic waves and the resulting impairment of performance,
the following mounting conditions must be met during operation of the WirelessHART adapter:
● If you install the adapter at a distance from the field device, make sure that the antenna is
at least 6 cm away from a wall or mast
● Make sure that the antenna of the WirelessHART adapter is not located between a wall or
a mast and the housing
● Make sure that there is no metallic material parallel to the antenna with a clearance of less
than 6 cm
● Make sure that the antenna is aligned vertically and pointing upwards
● If you are using more than one WirelessHART adapter, there should ideally be no wall or
similar obstacle between them to guarantee an optimum wireless network.
