Flow Transmitter

The flow transmitters are one of the important

devices Equipped with sensors, these devices
provide an electrical transmission for indication
of the flow of liquid, gas, or the mixture of both.
Flow Transmitter
• Flow Transmitter has inbuilt voltage regulator
which regularly loop current.
• 4 to 20 mA converted into standard 1 to 5V
using 250 ohm resistor.
• A/D convertor converts voltage output into its
equivalent output.
 Temperature Transmitters
• The temperature transmitter is the device,
which connects to the temperature sensor to
transmit a signal for monitoring and
controlling purposes.
• Temperature sensor is generally an RTD,
Thermistor or Thermocouple sensor , which
will interface with a DCS, PLC, data logger or
hardware display.
Temperature transmitter
• The 4-20ma temperature transmitters are the
most common
• The temperature of the transmitter can be
scaled inside the device to accommodate for
the needs of the application. In terms of
temperature gauges, the 4mA represents
-17.7°C – or 0° Fahrenheit and 20mA, which is
the highest measurement, represents 37.7° C –
or 100° Fahrenheit.
 Advantages of Temperature Transmitters

• AC power isn’t needed in a remote location

when operating a two wire transmitter
• Electrical noise isn’t loud or powerful with the
two wire transmitter
• A temperature transmitter is cheaper to use as
the wires are not expensive to obtain
