The THUM and all other wireless devices should be installed only after the Smart Wireless
Gateway has been installed and is functioning properly. Wireless devices should also be
powered up in order of proximity from the Smart Wireless Gateway, beginning with the
closest. This will result in a simpler and faster network installation.
During normal operation, or in fault condition, the THUM will cause a 2.5 V drop in the
connected loop. It is important to ensure that the power supply can provide at least 2.5 V
more than the lift off voltage of the wired device to make sure it works properly with the
THUM installed. To determine the lift off voltage for the wired device, review the wired
device operation and installation manual.
Instructions and procedures in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety
of the personnel performing the operations. Information that potentially raises safety issues is
indicated by a warning symbol ( ). Please refer to the following safety messages before

to
The Smart Wireless THUM Adapter is connected to a HART sub-device. With simple HART
configuration, the THUM transmits the HART information from the sub-device into the Wireless
network.
1.3.2Commissioning
The THUM can be commissioned before or after installation. It may be useful to bench
commission the THUM before installation to ensure proper operation and to become familiar
with the functionality. The instruments should be installed in accordance with intrinsically safe
or non-incendive field wiring practices, when required. The THUM Adapter is powered when
connected to a powered loop.
1.3.3Mechanical
When choosing an installation location and position for the transmitter, take into account
access to the device. For best performance, the antenna should be vertical and have some space
between objects in a parallel metal plane such as a pipe or metal framework, as the pipes or
framework may adversely affect the performance of the antenna.
1.3.4Electrical
The THUM Adapter is connected into a powered 4–20 mA loop, powering itself by scavenging
power. The THUM Adapter causes a voltage drop across the loop. The drop is linear from 2.25
volts at 3.5 mA to 1.2 volts at 25 mA, but does not effect the 4–20 mA signal on the loop. Under
fault conditions, the maximum voltage drop is 2.5 volts.
1.3.5Environmental
Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate
hazardous locations certifications.

1.3.6Wireless considerations
Power up sequence
Power should not be applied to any wireless device until the Smart Wireless Gateway
(“Gateway”) is installed and functioning properly. Wireless devices should also be powered up
in order of proximity from the Gateway, beginning with the closest. This will result in a simpler
and faster network installation. Enable Active Advertising on the Gateway to ensure that new
devices join the network faster. For more information see the Smart Wireless Gateway Manual
(Doc. No. 00809-0200-4420).
Reference Manual
00809-0100-4075, Rev CA
THUM adapter position
If possible, the THUM Adapter should be positioned vertically, either straight up or straight
down, and it should be approximately 3 ft. (1 m) from any large structure, building, or
conductive surface to allow for clear communication to other devices. If the THUM Adapter is
mounted horizontally, wireless communication range may be decreased.
Figure 1-1. THUM adapter position
Conduit entry
When installing the THUM Adapter into the conduit entry of a wired device, use an approved
thread sealant. Thread sealant provides a water tight seal. The thread sealant also provides a
lubrication to ensure easy removal of the THUM Adapter.
M20 conduit adapter
When using the M20 Conduit Adapter on the THUM Adapter, use an approved thread sealant
and tighten wrench tight to the THUM Adapter. When installing the M20 conduit adapter into a
conduit tighten to 32.5 Nm/25 ft-lb. to ensure water tight seal.

Field communicator connections
In order for the Field Communicator to interface with the THUM Adapter, the wired device must
be powered. The Field Communicator must be put into poll mode and should use the THUM
Adapter address of 63.
Power supply
Minimum loop load of 250 Ohms.
The THUM Adapter communicates and derives power from a standard 4-20 mA/HART loop. The
THUM Adapter causes a small voltage drop on the loop which is linear from 2.25 V at 3.5 mA to
1.2 V at 25 mA. Under fault conditions, the maximum voltage drop is 2.5 V. The THUM Adapter
will not affect the 4-20 mA signal under normal or fault conditions as long as the loop has at
least a 2.5 V margin at the maximum loop current (25 mA for a typical 4-20 mA/HART device).
Limit the power supply to 0.5 Amps maximum, and voltage to 55 Vdc.

Load resistor
If required, add a load resistor as shown in Figure 3-20, Figure 3-22, and Figure 3-24. The resistor
should be adequately rated for the application (1W minimum) and be compatible with the
supplied splice connector which accepts wire sizes from 14 to 22 AWG.
When adding a load resistor, ensure that uninsulated conductors do not contact the enclosure
and/or other exposed metal parts.
