For example, in the case of a orifice plate + differential pressure transmitter, it is necessary to indicate FE (orifice plate) and FT (differential pressure flow transmitter); For example, for an inline orifice plate flow transmitter, only FT needs to be indicated. If there is a separate flow sensor, FE should be indicated; if it is an integrated flow transmitter, only FT needs to be indicated.

Thank you:handshake

It’s just a simplification of the flowchart; FE represents a single detection element, which can be omitted in the simplified version – that’s all

Brother, this doesn’t necessarily mean simplification. The simultaneous appearance of FE and FT indicates separation. FE can be a throttle device, electromagnetic flowmeter, ultrasonic flowmeter, etc.; only in the case of FT is it integrated.

FE refers to flow meters equipped with throttling devices, such as orifice plates, nozzles, Venturi tubes, etc., while FT denotes electromagnetic, mass, and other types of flow meters.

FE is the measuring element, FT is the transmitter

FE is the measuring element, FT is the transmitter
