Remote seal differential pressure transmitter is used to prevent medium from entering transmitter. The pressure sensitive diaphragm and the transmitter are connected by a capillary filled with fluid. It is used to measure the level, flow and pressure of fluids, gases or steam.
Remote Seal Differential Pressure Transmitter is often used as a tank level transmitter. The smart pressure transmitter is connected with a stainless steel flange by capillary. The pressure is sensed by a remote transmission device installed on a pipe or container. The pressure is transmitted to the body of the transmitter through the filling silicone oil in the capillary. Then The delta chamber and the amplifying circuit board in the main body of the transmitter convert the pressure or differential pressure to 4 ～ 20mA. The DC signal is output. It can communicate for the setting and monitoring by cooperating with the HART communicator.

Applications of Remote Seal Differential Pressure Transmitter
Remote Seal Differential Pressure Transmitter is a pressure sensor assembly used to prevent the medium in the pipeline from directly entering the transmitter. It is connected to the transmitter by a capillary filled with fluid. It is used to measure the liquid level, flow rate and pressure of liquid, gas or steam. Then it is converted into 4 ～ 20mA DC signal output. The applicable media are as follows:
- Viscous medium at high temperature;
- Easily crystallized medium;
- Precipitation medium with solid particles or suspended matter;
- Strongly corrosive or highly toxic medium;
- It can eliminate the occurrence of leakage of the pressure guiding pipe and pollute the surrounding environment. It can be avoided when using the isolation liquid. Because of the unstable measurement signal.
- Continuously and accurately measure the interface and density;
- The remote transmission device can avoid the mixing of different instantaneous media. So that the measurement results truly reflect the actual situation of process changes;
- Places with high sanitation requirements;
- Such as in the production of food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries. Not only does the transmitter contact with the media meet hygienic standards, but it should be easy to rinse to prevent cross-contamination of different batches of media.

Precautions for use:
In the use process, we should pay attention to consider the following situations:
- When measuring the liquid pressure, the installation location of the remote pressure transmitter should avoid the impact of the liquid (that is, the water hammer phenomenon). In order to prevent the sensor from being damaged by overpressure.
- When the remote pressure transmitter transmitter freezes in winter. The transmitter installed outdoors must take anti-freezing measures. Avoid expansion of liquid in the pressure port due to icing volume. Lead to sensor damage.
- When wiring, pass the cable through the waterproof connector (accessory) or the flexible tube and tighten the sealing nut. In order to prevent rainwater etc. from leaking into the transmitter housing through the cable.
- When the remote pressure transmitter is used to measure the liquid pressure. The pressure tap should be opened on the side of the process pipe. In order to avoid sedimentation and accumulation of slag.
- To prevent the flange liquid transmitter from contacting with corrosive or overheated media. It is also necessary to prevent scum from depositing in the duct;
- When measuring the pressure of the gas, the pressure port should be opened at the top of the process pipeline. And the flange level transmitter should also be installed in the upper part of the process pipeline. In order to quickly deposit the deposited liquid into the process pipeline.
- The remote pressure transmitter should pay attention to that the pressure guiding tube of the sensor should be installed in a place with small temperature fluctuation.
- When measuring the steam or other high temperature medium of the remote pressure transmitter, it is necessary to connect a condenser such as a buffer tube (coil tube). The operating temperature of the transmitter should not be exceeded.

Remote Seal Differential Pressure Transmitters Working Principle
What is a diaphragm seal?
Diaphragm seals, also known as chemical seals or remote seals, are used for pressure measurements when the process medium should not come into contact with the pressurised parts of the measuring instrument.
A diaphragm seal has two primary tasks:
- Separation of the measuring instrument from the process medium
- Transfer of the pressure to the measuring instrument

What is remote seal?
The remote seal is used to prevent the medium in the pipeline from directly entering the pressure sensor assembly in the pressure transmitter. It is connected to the transmitter by a capillary filled with fluid. As a result, they’re often used in refining, petrochemical, and chemical plants.
What are the advantages of diaphragm seals?
Diaphragm seals offer the advantage that the “contact surface” between pressure medium and diaphragm is relatively large. Thus ensuring accurate pressure measurement, especially for very low pressures (< 600 mbar). Furthermore, they can be easily dismounted, e.g. for cleaning or calibration purposes.
How do diaphragm seals work?
Basically, diaphragm seals are used in all pressure measurement processes to avoid direct contact between the measuring instrument and the medium during this process.
In addition, if the measuring point cannot be installed or read because the measuring point is located in a hard-to-reach location, a diaphragm seal can also be used.
In both cases, the applied pressure is transferred to the measuring instrument through the system fill fluid in the diaphragm seal housing.
The diaphragm of the seal can be made of different materials, such as stainless steel, Hastelloy, Monel or tantalum. In addition, coatings with ECTFE, PFA or gold can also be used.
We can provide the best diaphragm seal design, materials, system fill fluid and accessories for each application. The combined configuration of the pressure measuring instrument and the diaphragm seal is mainly determined by the special application conditions of the diaphragm sealing system.
Diaphragm type level transmitter working principle
Smart differential pressure transmitters are often used to measure liquid level, flow rate, etc. Differential pressure transmitter cooperates with sealing diaphragm, capillary, etc.
The differential pressure type liquid level gauge uses the principle that when the liquid level in the container changes, the static pressure generated by the liquid column also changes accordingly, as shown in the figure.
For closed tanks. Set the bottom pressure to P. If the pressure on the liquid surface is P3 and the liquid level height is H, then:
P = P3 + Hpg (3-11)
In the formula: p is the medium density; g is the acceleration of gravity.
From the formula ((3-1 “available:
△ P = P-P3 = Hpg (3-12)
Usually the density of the measured medium is known, the pressure difference △ P is proportional to the liquid level height H. The pressure difference on the side will know the measured liquid level height.
When the container under test is open, the gas pressure is atmospheric pressure. The negative pressure chamber of the differential pressure gauge can be vented to the atmosphere. It is known that the pressure gauge can also be used to measure the liquid level at this time.
If the container is closed, you need to connect the negative pressure chamber of the differential pressure gauge to the gas phase of the container.
Pressure level transmitter is good for level measurement. Most of the time, we use submersible hydrostatic level sensor for the level measurement. When you can not use the probe of hydrostatic level sensor, you can try with this pressure level transmitter. Pressure level transmitter, is one type of DP level measure instrument, with the diaphragm.
SMT3151LT Differential pressure (DP) level transmitter a new type of differential pressure (DP) transmitter produced by advanced technology and equipment. Continuous level, flow and differential pressure measurement. Liquid level measurement, is the most common measurement process in continuous production processes, such as: petroleum and chemical industry. The liquid level measuring instrument currently widely used, is the differential pressure level transmitter.
In the case of open tanks or underground water wells, Hydrostatic pressure level transmitters are also suitable.
FAQ
What is remote seal pressure transmitter?

What is differential pressure transmitter working principle?
The basic principle of a differential pressure transmitter is to divide a space into two chambers with sensitive elements. When introducing pressure into the two chambers respectively. The sensor produces displacement (or displacement trend) under the combined action of the two pressures. This displacement is proportional to the pressure difference (differential pressure) between the two chambers. Convert this displacement into a standard signal output that can reflect the magnitude of the differential pressure.
A differential pressure transmitter is a transmitter that measures the pressure difference between the two ends of the transmitter. Output standard signals (such as 4 ~ 20mA, 0 ~ 5V). Differential pressure transmitters are different from general pressure transmitters in that they have two pressure interfaces. Differential pressure transmitters are generally divided into positive pressure end and negative pressure end. In general, the pressure at the positive pressure end of the differential pressure transmitter should be greater than the pressure in the negative pressure section to measure.
