    Abstract: A system (100) for measuring flow of process fluid through process piping (102), includes a flow restriction (108) in the process piping generating a differential pressure between an upstream side of the restriction (108) and a downstream side of the restriction (108). The differential pressure is related to flow of the process fluid. First and second upstream pressure transmitters (104C, 104D) are coupled to the process piping (102) on the upstream side of the flow restriction (108) and measure respective first and second upstream pressures. First and second downstream pressure transmitters (104A, 104B) are coupled to the process piping (102) on the downstream side of the flow restriction (108) and measure respective first and second downstream pressure of the process fluid. Flow rate of the process fluid is calculated based upon at least one upstream pressure and one downstream pressure.

    Abstract: A process variable transmitter (36) for measuring a pressure of a process fluid includes a process coupling having a first port (90) configured to couple to a first process pressure and a second port (90) configured to couple to a second process pressure. A differential pressure sensor (56) is coupled to the first and second ports and provides an output related to a differential pressure between the first pressure and the second pressure. First and second pressure sensors (97, 98) couple to the respective first and second ports and provide outputs related to the first and second pressures. Transmitter circuitry (72) is configured to provide a transmitter output based upon the output from the differential pressure sensor and/or the first and/or second pressure sensors.

    Abstract: A process control transmitter includes a transmitter housing and transmitter circuitry adapted for providing a transmitter output related to a sensed pressure. A sensor coupling in the housing defines a pressure sensor cavity which is filled with isolation fluid. An isolation diaphragm separates the sensor cavity from a process fluid and is adapted to transmit pressure therebetween. The pressure sensor is mounted in the sensor cavity and provides an output related to pressure to the transmitter circuitry. A thermal compensation member is coupled to the sensor cavity and has a thermal expansion coefficient which is different than a thermal expansion coefficient for the sensor coupling. The compensation member is adapted to compensate for pressure changes due to thermal expansion of the components or isolation fluid.

    Abstract: A thin film platinum resistance thermometer capable of operation at elevated temperatures includes a benign dielectric layer covering the thin film platinum resistance temperature sensing element and a barrier layer overlying the dielectric layer. The barrier layer, which is preferrably titanium dioxide, resists diffusion of contaminants which would alter the electrical characteristics of the sensing element, while permitting diffusion of oxygen through the barrier layer.

    Abstract: An integrated sensing device includes a resistance temperature sensor formed in a semiconductor substrate and a resistance heater which is formed on an insulating layer which covers the surface of the semiconductor substrate. The resistance heater has a low temperature coefficient of resistivity and is positioned adjacent the resistance temperature sensor so the current flow through the resistance heater will generate heat which is transferred through the insulating layer to the resistance temperature sensor. The sensing device is applicable to a variety of sensing systems, such as mass flow measurement systems, dew point detection systems, and frost detection systems.
