Wireless Differential Pressure/Pressure Transmitters

What Is a Wireless Differential Pressure Transmitter?

High performance wireless differential pressure transmitters measure liquid, gas, or steam flow as well as liquid level, density, and pressure. These transmitters transmit not only process variables but also the setting parameters using wireless signal.

Yokogawa's EJX-B series transmitters combine the features on our thoroughbred EJX-A series with ISA100 wireless communication to deliver new opportunities and possibilities.

All Yokogawa ISA100 compliant products can integrate into any ISA100 compliant network.

Overview:

ISA100 wireless temperature and pressure transmitters.

Overview:
  • Daily manual reading of pressure and temperature gauges with report by phone.
  • The customer wants to change measurement from off-line to on-line.
  • Cabling for wired transmitters in huge plants (up to 300 meters long) is expensive.
Industries:
Application Note
Overview:

Eliminating the wire using wireless transmitter is the perfect solution for rotating equipment. It establishes data collection between the transmitter and the gateway by reliable communication even though the dryer was rotating.

Industries:
Overview:
  • Wireless pressure and temperature monitoring.
  • Repeater was set under the gateway.
  • The maximum distance between the repeater and transmitters is approximately 500m.
Industries:
Overview:

ISA100 wireless temperature and pressure transmitters with orifice plates allow:
