Benefits

• The 4–20 mA current loop for process control applications is a de facto standard. They are extensively used to carry signals from process instrumentation to PID controllers, SCADA systems, and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). They are also used to transmit controller outputs to the modulating field devices such as control valves. The HART protocol uses the loop for communications between field devices and controllers. Various automation protocols may replace analog current loops, but 4–20 mA is still a principal industrial standard.
• The 4-20 mA current loop powers a downstream device and provides one piece of control data – i.e. the setting of the current indicates how to control a device. HART allows the downstream device to signal back upstream with diagnostics data by superimposing an FSK signal on top of the 4-20 mA current loop which is then detected and demodulated upstream. The upstream device can similarly superimpose an FSK signal where it wants to convey additional data on 4- 20 mA loop. HART is therefore a half-duplex signalling protocol that uses two tones for transmitting 1s and 0s (1s are at 1,200 Hz and 0s are at 2,200 Hz). The baud rate of the data is 1,200 bits/sec.
