Answer / lokesh gatty

We cannot control through thermocouple/RTD, they are only
measuring elements,which is connected to temperature
controller which as set value for which point it has to
control temperature (PID/Relay logic control)..Meanwhile
Temperature transemeter is used to convert mv/ohm to anolog
signal(4--20 ma)...we have to refer ohms/mv to degree Celsius
table

Answer / aditya kaushik

When we are using the rtd/thermocouple, The output is in mv
or Ohm variation wrt temperature, that will nt be directlyy
processed by our dcs/PLC so we are using transmitters to
convert it to 4-20 ma accordingly, bt now a days rtd cards
are available widely with plc vendors so we can now a days
use directy without transmitters also,\\thnx,

Answer / george mathews

Neither temperature transmitter not the thermocouple or Rtd
can control the process. Because as we know Thermocouple and
RTD are nothing but measuring medium , their only work is to
measure the temperature , and for the transmitter it nothing
but a transducer whose only work is to send the measurement
in d form of mA (4 to 20 mA.)

Answer / palanisamy

If you transmit Thermocouple/RTD signal for a longer
distance, it can easily pickup noise & you will not get a
steady reading in the receiving instrument. By providing a
temperature transmitter, we can avoid noise pickup.

Answer / chandrakant kale

WE GENERALLY NEED TO CONTROL THE PROCESS PARAMETER
(TEMPERATURE) SO FOR THAT WE NEED TRANSDUCER.WHICH SEND 4-20
MA TO THE DEVICE WHICH IS TO BE CONTREOLLED. TC IS ONLY FOR
SENSING TEMP.

If a normal magnetic type flow transmitter that can measure flow, temperature and show this parameters on field, is it possible by any means to get this (flow and temperature) parameters info. On dcs? And if yes then with HART, FO communication or any other communication system?

Why does a pressure gauge installed on reactor, doesn't have any vent line below to release the pressure? Is it any kind of designing mistake or it actually does not require any vent line? And if it does not require any vent line below it then how we are gonna release the pressure built inside the pressure gauge?
