Intelligent Industrial Transmitters of Pressure and Other Process Parameters

Abstract

An overview is given of industrial measurement instruments (transmitters) of pressure and other process parameters. It is followed by a description of the technology used in the current generation of intelligent transmitters featuring two-way digital communication. A recently developed product of IHTM–CMTM, the intelligent pressure transmitter is presented, including a description of the software temperature compensation method for the used pressure sensor. Features and application possibilities of the developed hardware and software platform are discussed, as well as its suitability for the realization of wireless sensors.
