why use to 250 ohm for hart protocol and why hart communicator not communicate without 250 ohm 

Answer Posted / carl_ellis

My friend Dan has an article on why HART needs a minimum 
resistance in the loop to work.

http://blog.lesman.com/2011/10/06/add250-ohm-resistors-to-make-hart-work/#more-68

In summary, the loop power supply acts as a very low pass filter that tends to filter out the HART signal. 

According to the HART Foundation spec, the 1200-2400 Hz HART signal needs a minimum (230 ohm) resistance in the loop to create a HART signal with enough amplitude to meet the sensitivity requirements of a HART modem receiver.

dear friends, i have seen flow as the selection critriea in presure guage (bourdon tube) and i would like to know what is the relation between flow and performance of pressure guage other parameters i found in the data sheet are pressure max. 1ksc temperature max. - 50 deg c line size - 80NB operating range - 1ksc pr. guage range - 0-2 ksc thank u,
