WirelessHART Approved as European National Standard
 
WirelessHART被批準為歐洲國家標準

July 25, 2010 - 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 01 June 2010.

7月25日消息——HART通訊基金會宣布歐洲標準化委員會（CEN）已經批準WirelessHART規范成為一個歐洲國家標準(EN 62591)。歐洲標準化委員會向成員包括歐洲31個國家的國家電工委員會的歐洲電工技術標準化委員會（CENELEC）發布了該標準。歐洲電工技術標準化委員會在2010年6月1日批準了WirelessHART歐洲標準。

“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.”

HART通訊基金會執行總裁Ron Helson表示：“今年3月，WirelessHART規范被國際電工委員會批準成為一個完整的國際標準(IEC 62591Ed. 1.0)。被批準成為歐洲國家標準進一步加強了用戶和供應商對該技術被作為一個技術上合理、可靠和安全的過程自動化無線通訊解決方案的認可度。”

The IEC Standard was approved by CENELEC as a European Standard without any modification. According to the announcement of approval issued by CENELEC, “members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration”.

歐洲電工技術標準化委員會沒作任何修改就批準這個IEC標準成為歐洲標準。根據歐洲電工技術標準化委員會的批準發行公告表示，“成員有責任遵守CEN/CENELEC內部規范，這些規范規定了給予本歐洲標準無任何改動作為一個國家標準地位的條款”。

A growing number of WirelessHART compatible products are available today from major global suppliers including ABB, Emerson, Endress+Hauser, MACTek, Nivis, Phoenix Contact, Pepperl+Fuchs, Siemens and others.

現在，兼容WirelessHART的產品越來越多出現在市場上，他們來自全球主要的供應商，包括ABB、艾默生、恩德斯豪斯、MACTek、Nivis、菲尼克斯電氣、倍加福、西門子以及其他一些廠商。

Released in September 2007, WirelessHART is an open and interoperable wireless communication standard designed to address the critical needs of industry for reliable, robust and secure wireless communication in real-time industrial process measurement and control applications.

WirelessHART規范發布于2007年九月，是一個開放的和可互操作的無線通信標準，用于滿足實時工業過程測量和控制應用上對可靠、穩定和安全的無線通信的關鍵需求。

WirelessHART is a backward compatible, evolutionary enhancement to the HART Communication Protocol, the leading communication technology for intelligent process measurement and control field devices and systems with more than 30 million devices installed and operating in process plant applications around the globe.

WirelessHART可對HART通訊協議向后兼容，也是后者的進一步延伸。HART通訊協議是一項用于智能過程測量和現場設備及系統控制的領先通訊技術，全球過程工廠已在使用的HART設備超過3000萬臺。

The CEN was founded in 1961. Its 30 national members work together to develop European Standards (ENs) in various sectors to build a European internal market for goods and services and to position Europe in the global economy. CENELEC is a non-profit technical organization set up under Belgian law. CENELEC members have been working together in the interests of European harmonization since the 1950s, creating both standards requested by the market and harmonized standards in support of European legislation.

歐洲標準化委員會成立于1961年，其30個國家成員共同開發各領域的歐洲標準，建立一個商品和服務的歐洲內部市場，并確立歐洲在全球經濟體中的地位。歐洲電工技術標準化委員會是一個根據比利時法律成立的非盈利性技術組織，其成員從20世紀50年代以來就歐洲協調利益一直緊密合作，創立了既符合市場要求的標準也符合支持歐洲法規的統一標準。

The HART Communication Foundation is an independent, not-for-profit membership organization that provides global support for the application of HART technology. The Foundation is the technology owner, standards setting body and central authority on the HART Communication Protocol, establishing and controlling new technology developments and enhancements that support the needs of the process automation industry. Founded in 1993, Foundation membership includes more than 230 companies worldwide.

HART通訊基金會是一個獨立的非盈利性的會員制組織，它提供了全球HART應用技術的支持。該基金會是技術擁有者、標準制定機構和HART通訊協議的中央權威，建立和控制新技術的發展和改進，以支持過程自動化行業的需要。在全球已有200多家成員公司。HART通訊基金會成立于1993年，成員包括全球超過230家公司。
