Emerson recently announced the release of the Rosemount 3144S Temperature Transmitter, a new industrial measurement solution.

Selling for just $89 with free Windows configuration software, this DIN Form B head-mount instrument will convert the input signal from any 100 ohm Platinum RTD sensor to a highly accurate, loop ...

A transmitter converts the mV signal from an RTD or T/C to a 4-20mA signal or to a digital fieldbus output such as HART, Foundation Fieldbus or Profibus PA in the case of a smart transmitter.

RTD sensors are available using two-, three-, and four-wire configurations, which differ in their use of sense wires (Fig. 1a, 1b, and 1c, respectively).

The current consumption of the entire RTD temperature transmitter was measured as 2.73mA at 25°C and 3.13mA at 85°C (excluding sensor excitation). This circuit meets the power consumption requirements ...

An integrated assembly provides a thermowell, RTD, transmitter, and local LCD display with a single model number. This reduces costs for both suppliers and users by simplifying order processing and ...

The hockey puck-style SB-PT100 resistance temperature detector (RTD) transmitter extends the company’s Generation II family of wireless sensors based on low-power mesh networking sensor technology.

The UWRTD-NB9W wireless RTD probe/ transmitter assembly features a stainless steel probe connected to a polypropylene watertight transmitter housing. The assembly is shipped ready to install and ...

Conclusion Selecting the correct RTD or thermocouple for an application will enhance performance and prevent sensor damage. Thermocouples are a multipurpose and cost-effective means of temperature ...

Therefore, a 4-wire configuration results in the best performance. RTD Configuration Circuit A high precision and accurate RTD sensor measurement requires precise signal conditioning, ...
