The temperature transmitter is a device which converts various temperature signals into analog signals like 4-20mA, 0-10VDC,  Temperature transmitters are available in all different shapes and sizes, depending on the application and environment they are expected to operate. To name a few, they are DIN rail mounted temperature transmitters, also known as Rail temperature transmitters,  field mounted temprature transmitters, Hockey puck temperature transmitters.       Here at Maxwell, we offer all types of temperature transmitters, the most popular one would be standard version without isolation and some smart temperature transmitters like HART protocol temperature transmitter, RS-485 modbus Temperature transmitters.

The accuracy of a temperature transmitter is THE key aspects to look into, as with many instrumentation transmitter, a temperature transmitter needs to be adjusted or calibrated. So the current output of 4-20mA represents the temperature range of the process variable being measured, for example, a process variable temperature range of zero degree Celsius to 100 degree Celsius will produce a current range of 4 to 20 mA.In every calibration scenario, a sensor is replaced by a device that can simulate the output of the sensor over the entire process variable temperature range.  For a thermocouple, the sensor is replaced by a device that produces a range of millivolts. For an RTD sensors, the sensor is replaced by a device that produces a range of resistances. Devices produces resistances such as decade box,  today ,we’ve got signal reference calibrators to generate various reference signals for RTD and thermocouples which makes the calibration for temperature transmitters ...

Selecting correct temperature transmitters could be quite challenging from time to time, there are a lot of factors needs to be take into consideration, but first and foremost is to make sure that the measurement accuracy and to convert a temperature sensor’s low-level (ohm or mV) signal to a standard 4-20mA current signal that can be readily accepted by a monitoring and control system, such as a DCS or PLC The evolving technology has made the temperature transmitter reliable, affordable,  below are the few things should be taken into consideration when choose the correct temperature transmitter. 1. Back of Panel or Local Installation Perhaps the most important consideration when specifying a temperature transmitter is the environment in which it will be installed. If the distance between the sensor measurement and the control room is relatively short and free of plant electrical "noise", temperature transmitters can be inexpensively installed in the control room, with senso...

HART 7 is more than just a wireless protocol, our HART protocol temperature transmtiter TT-217 is HART 7 product, you can configure it by using our PC software or you can configure it by using standard HART communicator, the HART 7 standard applies to the full range of measurement, control, and automation systems products based on the HART Communication Protocol – whether wired or wireless. The WirelessHART capability is getting the most attention, but HART 7 provides many new capabilities beneficial to industry users in both wired and wireless products. Examples include: 1) Report by Exception—enables devices to push information to the control or asset management system without the system having to poll the device with a standard HART command. If there is a process or device status change, the device will automatically advise you.2) Time-Stamped Data—a valuable tool that adds a time stamp to process data readings sent to the host system which is helpful in evaluating...
