Why do we use triad cable for RTD to Temp.transmitter connection? Why we don't use 3 core cable..

Answer / binithere

A triad cable consists of multiple triads, each triad consisting of three conductors(which are twisted together) along with a shied. The fact that the wires are twisted ,and the presence of a shield makes the signal carried by a triad cable less prone to external noise.

A core cable on the other hand consists of individual conductors.The absence of any kind of mechanism to prevent the noise from affecting the signal, makes them unsuitable for carrying any form of analog signal.

If you use a core cable to connect your RTD to the transmitter ,you would get the temperature readings, but it will be susceptible to noise, which is not desirable.

Do let me know if you come across any other reason.

In control valve there are two type of valve seat we can use metal to metal seat & soft seat.On this valve seat i have following doubt. 1)I have never seen practically the internal assembly of valve so my doubt is that basically weather the seat is soft seat or metal its basic MOC is same as valve body(SS or CS) only in soft seat we are using PTFE ring & place on valve seat & in metal this PTFE ring is not threr am i correct??????? 2)what are the common general rule for using metal to metal seat & soft seat,means its depend on process parameter like liquid,gas, steam & on valve leakage class.
