5 Most Popular Pressure Transmitter Technologies

Top 5 Popular Pressure Measurement Technologies

1. Wireless Pressure Transmitters: Wireless pressure transmitters are becoming popular in hard-to-reach locations installations. The use of wireless system implies a better convenience, and also lowers installation costs. These transmitters make use of ultrasonic signals for communication and assure security. Nowadays, battery-operated transmitters are also gaining popularity. These transmitters accompany wireless installations and ideal for use in remote locations without any power line. 3051c is the most popular wireless transmitter used in the process industry. 3051c transmitters enable easy installation and are designed for abusive work environments.
2. Mass Flow or Multivariable Transmitters: Mass flow transmitters are also known as multivariable transmitters. They combine a temperature transmitter, differential pressure transmitter, and gauge pressure transmitter into a single flow computer unit. Many times, they are used for mass flow measurement. The multivariable transmitter minimizes the requirement to purchase a separate flow computer for flow calculation.
3. Smart Line Multivariable Transmitters with an Integrated Primary Variable: These transmitters combine various microprocessor technologies, and integrate sensor and dynamic flow compensation to produce the most consistent flow measurement. The flow measurement may include compensation of pressure or temperature as well as complex variables such as thermal and gas expansion factor, viscosity, discharge coefficient and so on. IGP10 and IDP10 both are smart line transmitters that offer measurement of absolute pressure and transmits an electrical signal in either analog or digital mode.
4. Multi-Sensing Transmitters: The use of multi-sensing transmitter is becoming more important. They offer the high-level precision and reliability required in the demanding applications. They provide different process readings to the external units which mainly includes flow computer or remote terminal unit (RTU). For instance, Yokogawa is one of the leading industrial providers of measurement solutions. Its EJX-A series is a line of DPharp transmitters which offers performance and stability in the applications. The EJX930A has gained popularity in multi-sensing technology as it uses the unique characteristics of the DPharp sensor for better visibility.
5. Coplanar Pressure Transmitters: These transmitters are used to measure absolute and gauge pressures. These transmitters feature easy-to-use menus, also allowing you to easily command the systems. Moreover, these transmitters offer installation flexibility for integrated pressure solutions. 3051s is one example of a coplanar pressure transmitter that ensures the accurate measurement of gauge and differential pressures.
