What is a high differential pressure transmitter? What is the difference between it and a regular differential pressure transmitter?
As the name implies, it is a transmitter with a relatively large pressure difference; it is still a transmitter...
High differential pressure? High static pressure, I guess. Literally speaking, a high differential pressure means that the measurement range is quite large, right?
I work with transmitters, specifically high-static-pressure transmitters. Those from Yokogawa are usually part of the 130 series, while those from Rosemount belong to the high-precision series
The Rosemount High Precision series has a maximum operating pressure of 42 MPa
High static pressure transmitters are generally used in applications where the overload limits are very high, such as for the main steam flow in steam turbines, and where the differential pressure value is not particularly large. The overload limit of ordinary differential pressure transmitters is around 16 MPa, whereas that of high static pressure transmitters is around 42 MPa:lol
