Temperature transmitter

A temperature transmitter is a device that converts the temperature signal from a sensor into a standardized output signal that can be easily transmitted over long distances.
The most common output signals for temperature transmitters are 20-4mA current loop and 0-10V voltage loop.

Temperature transmitters are used in various industries, including:

• Production
• Power generation
• Oil and gas
• chemical processing
• eating and drinking
• HVAC

Use of temperature transmitters

Temperature transmitters are essential for monitoring and controlling temperature in industrial processes. They can be used:

• Detect overheating or underheating
• Maintain the desired temperature
• Protect equipment from damage
• Assurance of product quality

Types of temperature transmitters

There are two main types of temperature transmitters:

Analog temperature transmitters: These transmitters convert the temperature signal into a proportional current or voltage signal.

Digital temperature transmitters: These transmitters convert the temperature signal into a digital signal that can be transmitted over the network.
Digital temperature transmitters are becoming increasingly popular due to their accuracy, flexibility, and improved communication capabilities.
Advantages of temperature transmitters
Here are some of the benefits of using temperature transmitters:

High accuracy: They are more accurate. This is because temperature transmitters isolate the sensor from the process environment, which can cause errors.

Increased reliability: Temperature transmitters are more reliable than direct contact sensors because they are less susceptible to damage from the process environment.

Longer cables: Temperature transmitters can be used with longer cables than direct contact sensors. This is because temperature transmitters convert the temperature signal into a standard output signal that is less subject to noise and interference.

Improved Communications: Temperature transmitters can be connected with a variety of communication protocols such as HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus and PROFIBUS used.

This allows them to be easily integrated into automation systems.

If you need to measure and control temperature in an industrial process, a temperature transmitter is a valuable tool.

They offer more accuracy, reliability and communication capabilities than direct contact sensors.
