Abstract: A wireless mesh network provides secure communication by encrypting data using one or more encryption keys. A configuration device in communication with a security manager of the network provides a temporary secure communication path between the security manager and a new field device to be added to the mesh network. Cryptographic material and other configuration data can then be transferred between the security manager of the network and the new field device securely via the configuration device.

Abstract: An industrial process sensor having a sensor component exposed to process fluid detects when the sensor performance has been degraded by a sensor coating buildup from the process fluid. A baseline statistical metric, such as standard deviation of the process parameter sensed by the sensor, is determined during an initial operating period when the sensor component is clean. During continued operation of the sensor, the statistical metric is continually updated and monitored. An alarm output indicating that sensor coating has degraded sensor performance is produced when the current value of the statistical metric varies from the baseline value by an amount indicating degraded sensor performance.

Abstract: A process control system (10) utilizes wireless transceivers to divorce the field devices (14, 30) from traditional wired network topologies. By providing field devices (14, 30) with wireless transceivers (22) and shared wireless transceivers (36) for adapting wired field devices (30), the field device network may be adapted to any number of network topologies without concern for additional wiring costs. Specifically, a power supply (18, 26) can be provided for each field device (14) or for groups of field devices, as needed. Thus, the entire network can receive power from a single power bus (32), without expensive power filtering. In addition, the network can be a hybrid in which part of the information is transmitted and received over wired lines and part is transmitted and received over wireless communications.
