Experienced business managers understand there is no room for error when it comes to the quality of the product or the safety of employees. That's why process plants across a wide range of industries are switching to WIKA's intelligent sensor technology for their pressure and temperature measurement needs.
Intelligent sensor technology is another example of WIKA's commitment to leadership in the instrument industry. With use of the HART Protocol, even traditional analog instrumentation systems can become "smart" systems, giving you much greater insight into and better control over your processes.
WIKA's new
UPT-20 process transmitter with intelligent sensor technology has been designed from the ground up for process applications, and offers an easy-to-see multi-functional display, simple menu navigation, a conductive plastic case and a large rotatable LC display.
All these features make this new transmitter ideal for many applications in machine building, plant construction, control technology, as well as in the pharmaceutical and food industries.
More on WIKA's UPT-20 Process Transmitter
The measuring cell of the UPT-20 Process Transmitter is offered in stainless steel 316L or with a high-performance Elgiloy® sensor element.
The case can be rotated a full 330°, and the LC display can be easily mounted in various positions, by rotating in 90° steps, to facilitate viewing from many different angles.
To meet the demands of the process industry, the LC display is designed to be viewed from any mounting position up to 15 feet away.
The process transmitter can be conveniently configured directly on site with the HART interface or using the display and operating module.
Turndown
The UPT-20 also offers an adjustable turndown of up to 20:1, which means you can register specific process values with optimized measuring value limits without significantly impacting the measurement accuracy.
UPT- 20 is available with HART Protocol
WIKA's intelligent sensor technology means the UPT-20 process transmitter can be installed using analog communications or using the popular HART protocol.
HART establishes a protocol where a smart field device speaks only when spoken to by a master device. HART is ideal for point-to-point communication or multidrop for directly communicating information between smart field instruments and central control systems.
HART involves using two simultaneous communication channels: the 4-20mA analog signal and a digital signal. The 4-20mA signal communicates the pressure or other key value being measured, and other information related to the device is transmitted via a digital signal superimposed on the analog signal.
Accuracy
The accuracy of the UPT-20 at reference conditions (including non-linearity, hysteresis, zero offset and end value deviation) is 0.15% of span as standard,, with 0.10% of span or 0.20% available as options.
