BULLET®

WirelessHART® Adapter
for Use with Wired HART® Field Devices
March 2013

Description
The BULLET WirelessHART Adapter enables new and
existing wired smart HART eld devices, non-smart
analog eld devices and remote HART I/O from any
supplier to communicate with host applications using
WirelessHART technology.
Handles All Registered Smart HART “Digital”
Devices—Using the industry-standard HART
protocol, the BULLET can be used to transmit the
primary, secondary, third and fourth variable process
data from smart HART devices, valves and I/O, as well
as HART instrument diagnostics, alarm data and
custom commands.
Just one or up to eight* HART (multidropped) devices
connect to a single BULLET making it an economical
choice for sending multiple HART signals on a single
wireless data link. The BULLET can be connected
directly to a HART device or anywhere along the HART
4-20mA loop at a junction box. It supports both HART
MESH and STAR network congurations.
Non-Smart “Analog” Devices Too—The BULLET
accepts an analog (i.e., 4-20mA) signal and provides a
proportional digital value in scaled engineering units at
the opposite end of the data link through a
WirelessHART gateway and, ultimately, to a host
system. This is ideal for converting non-HART legacy
analog instruments to wireless devices.
Loop- or DC/Battery-Powered—The BULLET can use
existing loop-power (scavenging), or can be powered
directly by a DC power supply, or by an external
battery/solar system. When loop-powered, the BULLET
saves on the long-term cost of battery maintenance,
replacement and disposal programs. With external
battery power, the BULLET provides battery power
management by cycling the HART capable eld device
power, and taking and transmitting periodic process
readings, and diagnostic and alarm data.
*Using Moore Industries’ TCM Temperature Concentrator Module, up to 16 HART digital
signals incorporating PV (Temperature) and SV (Reference Junction Compensation)
variables and diagnostics and alarm data can be transmitted in a WirelessHART network.

The BULLET WirelessHART Adapter can be installed directly to one
smart HART or non-smart analog eld device or can multidrop up to
eight* HART devices in a WirelessHART network.

Features
• Works with All HART Devices. The BULLET
is ideal for use with Moore Industries’ HART eld
devices and HART I/O, as well as other third-party
HART (v.5, 6 and 7) transmitters, valves, distributed
I/O and HART 7 compliant WirelessHART Gateways.
• Save Time and Money. Use our TCM Temperature
Concentrator Module to monitor up to 16 HART digital
signals. The TCM accepts RTD, T/C, mV, ohms and
potentiometer inputs.
• Industry-rst, Patented StepVolt™ Technology.
Sets insertion voltage in steps from 1 to 2.5 volts to
optimize the tradeoff between available loop power
and wireless communication bandwidth.
• “Plug-and Play” Installation and Operation. Sets
up using a standard HART DD/EDD, or using free
DTM (Device Type Manager) device-specic software
designed to operate within a frame program such
as PACTware™. The BULLET can also be factorycongured by Moore Industries personnel to user
specications.
• Installs in Rugged Field and Hazardous Areas.
Featuring a rugged internal antenna design, the
BULLET is available in General Purpose, IntrinsicallySafe, Non-Incendive, Non-Sparking and Explosionproof/Flameproof models.
