Abstract
The invention relates to a housing lid for a field device comprising a screw thread, a receiving and transmitting unit, a battery unit, and a communication interface. The screw thread secures the housing lid to the field device. The receiving and transmitting unit is embodied wirelessly to receive information produced by at least one external unit and to transmit information produced by the field device to the external unit. The battery unit supplies the receiving and transmitting unit and/or the field device with electrical energy. The communication interface is in electrical contact with the battery unit, with the receiving and transmitting unit and via a corresponding communication interface of the field device with the field device.
