What is the DIfferences between SMART transmitters and
PROFIBUS DP/PA Transmitters?

Answer / er.shah rahul
Basically,smart transmitters are used for sensing the
analog signal then,smart transmitter digitalized it & give
it range& adjustment.it corrects it by many factor.it is
used only in non hazardous area.this is continuous sensing.
apart from that,PROFIBUS DP is decentralised periphery
used in non-hazardous area & PROFIBUS PA is process
automation used in hazardous area.They is joined through
coupler.PLC Periodically receives data as a packet.

Answer / rathina
Basically trouble shooting point of view, multimeter if
enough to trouble shoot the SMART Transmitter. but Profibus
we need some kind of PLC loaded PC's

Answer / dibyendu das
PLC DCS
 Fast logic scan (approx. 10ms) is required to perform
motor or motion control.
 Control loops require deterministic scan execution.
perform motor or motion control at a speed of 100 to 500 ms
 Redundancy may not be cost justified.
 System redundancy is often required.
 System can be taken offline to make configuration.
 Online configuration changes often required changes.
 Analog Control: Simple PID only.
 Analog Control: Simple to advanced PID control up to
Advanced Process Control.
 Diagnostics to tell you when something is broken.
 Asset Management alerts you to what might break before
it does.

SMART Stands for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology which is basically a technology and whereas Profibus DP/PA are transmission protocols. Like HART, Foundation Fieldbus etc.

Please any one can provide latest aptitude test,technical test and interview questions for tata consulting engineering (TCE) i need it asap thanks in advance
How a oxygen sensor & analyzer work at boiler or furnace, what’s the principle & science is beyond this, How O2 sensor scene & convert signal & move toward analyzer & analyzer show reading in percent?

why does a transmitter o/o signal starts from 3-15psi or 4- 20mA?
how do calibrate the valves.. with clear manual
why we are using magnet for calibration of gas detector?
i want interview questions about PROCESS CONTROL INSTRUMENTATION , SENSORS AND TRANSDUCERS IF ANY BADY KNOW ABOUT THAT PLEASE SEND TO MY MAIL karumudi1003@gmail.com

different between calibration range and instrument range ?
in my plant 100% feedwater control v/v is air to close but due to instrument air fail,the valve opens but instead of drum level high its get tripped in low low drum level.the urv of level tx is 0 and lrv is -800.pls tell me the reason. for such behaviour.
How we are blocking 40 kg or more pressure through only 6 kg instrument air in control valve
