In many types of process applications, strict control and accuracy in measurement of pressure, temperature, and flow rates are critical throughout the process. In these types of situations, selecting a proven brand name and a standard in the process industry for all parts and components is an essential decision.
For most types of applications, the gold standard in any industry in measuring the flow of the media through the system is one of the many options in Rosemount flow transmitter and flow meter combinations. Of course, the company also makes a range of pressure gauges and temperature transmitters, all which provide the same level of accuracy, dependability, and reliability.
The line of Rosemount flow transmitter options operates similar to other flow transmitters on the market. To choose the best transmitter for the job, it is important first to understand how they work.
The Flowmeter and Transmitter
The flow meter is the device that is used to complete the physical measurement of the movement of the liquid, gas or media going through the system. There are many different types of flowmeters offered by Rosemount, including those that work on the Coriolis effect, differential pressures, ultrasonic and thermal mass flowmeters to name just a few.
The Rosemount flow transmitter mounts to the flowmeter, providing either integral or remote mounting options to suit the specific application. They transmit the information obtained by the flowmeter with a specific output and through different models such as HART and Modbus.
In addition, different options in flow transmitters by Rosemount can also provide information on diagnostics and process information, as well as maintain sensor health in-line to avoid the need for additional verification and checks of the sensors. This makes these flow transmitters not only a top short-term investment but a proven strategy to ensuring system accuracy and performance.
