The ST3000 transmitter is designed to measure the difference in pressure between two points, often used in applications like flow measurement, level monitoring, or filter monitoring.
It provides precise measurements of the differential pressure in various industrial processes.
Smart Transmitter:
The “smart” designation means it incorporates digital communications, typically supporting protocols like HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer), allowing easy configuration and diagnostics through a control system or handheld communicator.
Smart transmitters have the ability to provide additional data beyond basic measurement, including diagnostics and health status of the transmitter.
Accuracy and Range:
The ST3000 transmitters are known for their high accuracy and stability over a wide range of pressures.
It can measure low and high differential pressures with high precision, which is crucial in process control systems.
Rangeability:
The ST3000 offers excellent rangeability, making it suitable for different process conditions where the differential pressure might vary widely.
Applications:
Flow Measurement: When used with orifice plates, venturis, or flow nozzles to measure flow rate based on differential pressure.
Level Measurement: Commonly used in tank level measurement, where the differential pressure between the bottom and top of the tank is measured to determine the level of the liquid.
Filter Monitoring: Helps to monitor the performance of filters by measuring the pressure drop across the filter media.
Robust and Reliable:
The ST3000 transmitters are built to withstand harsh environments and are used in chemical, petrochemical, oil and gas, power generation, and water treatment industries.
Digital Communication:
The HART protocol enables the transmitter to provide a digital signal, allowing remote configuration, calibration, and troubleshooting via handheld devices or a control system.
User-Friendly Interface:
Local display and easy-to-use interface for field setup and diagnostics.
Applications:
Oil and Gas: For monitoring flow rates and pressure differences in pipelines, compressors, and wellheads.
Chemical Processing: In reactors, distillation columns, and pipelines to measure pressure differentials.
Power Generation: For measuring pressures in turbines, boilers, and heat exchangers.
Water and Wastewater Treatment: Monitoring level and flow in tanks, filters, and pipelines.
HVAC and Building Automation: For maintaining airflow and pressure levels in large buildings and industrial systems.
