Especially in process technology, temperature often plays an important part. For automation equipment this means that it mustn’t interfere with the target’s temperature. Ascertaining this is a business for specialists.
As this news is being written in southern Spain where +35°C are the average (!) morning, day and evening temperature, the »cool« aspect becomes quite important. Other than in process automation, I would definitely like to change some temperatures, e.g. the car seat’s, the playground slide’s or even the temperature of Sangria, in which ice cubes keep melting.
For some processes in the pharmaceutical, chemical and food/beverage industries as well as in medical technology, one interpretation of quantum theory applies: Measurement can change the measured objects - and shouldn’t. For these kinds of applications, Baumer's pressure transmitter »ED701« is available with a cooling neck for use with high media temperatures of up to +300°C. It is available with several industrial and hygienic process connections.

Even without cooling neck, the pressure transmitter is, according to the manufacturer, suitable for media temperatures of up to +150°C, with a standard cooling neck for temperatures of up to +200°C, and with an extended cooling neck for up to +300°C. Due to the active compensation of temperature drifts, the ED701 is supposed to have a measuring accuracy of up to 0.1 % F.S. The long-term stability is in the area of 0.1 % per year, the zero point can be recalibrated using a simple mechanical adjustment, if required.
With a large range of process connections and several output signal options (4…20 mA, 0…10 V(DC), 0…5 V(DC)), the sensor is suitable for various applications. It is completely made of stainless steel, but for use with aggressive media, it can be provided with a pressure connection in Hastelloy C. For applications in hazardous areas, ATEX versions are available.
