    Abstract: A field device for an industrial process includes a digital isolator which electrically divides the field device into a primary side for low voltage electronics from a secondary side. A device power supply located in the secondary side is configured to provide power to a process control device which monitors or controls a process variable of the industrial process. A latching relay located in the secondary side couples to the process control device and the device power supply and has a set input to responsively couple the device power supply to the process control device and a reset input which causes the latching relay to enter an electrically open state to thereby disconnect the device power supply from the process control device. A controller located in the primary side is configured to generate a switch signal. The digital isolator extends between the primary side and the secondary side and couples to the switch signal from the controller and provides a digital output on the secondary side in response to the switch signal. Edge triggered circuitry couples to the digital output of the digital isolator and provides a pulse output to the reset input of the latching relay in response the digital output of the digital isolator.

    Abstract: A process fluid pressure transmitter includes a pressure sensor body containing a pressure sensor that has an electrical characteristic that changes in response to applied pressure. An isolation diaphragm is configured to be exposed to process fluid. A fill fluid fluidically couples the isolation diaphragm to the pressure sensor. A weld ring is welded to the isolation diaphragm at a first weld. A barrier metal is disposed on at least one surface of the isolation diaphragm such that the barrier metal extends over the first weld. The weld ring is welded to the pressure sensor body at a second weld that is spaced from the barrier metal.

    Abstract: A heat flux temperature sensor probe includes a first mineral-insulated cable portion and a second mineral-insulated cable portion. The first mineral-insulated cable portion has a first metallic sheath, a first plurality of thermocouple conductors extending therein, and an inorganic insulative material insulating the first plurality of thermocouple conductors from one another and from the first metallic sheath. The second mineral-insulated cable portion has a second metallic sheath, a second plurality of thermocouple conductors extending therein, and an inorganic insulative material insulating the second plurality of thermocouple conductors from one another and from the second metallic sheath. A first thermocouple is formed between at least one of the first plurality of thermocouple conductors and one of the second plurality of thermocouple conductors proximate a first end of the second mineral-insulated cable portion. A second thermocouple is formed between at least two of the second plurality of thermocouple conductors proximate a second end of the second mineral-insulated cable. A sheath is operably coupled to and connects the first and second mineral insulated cable portions, a portion of an interior of the sheath is filled with a non-conductive material.

    Abstract: A process fluid temperature transmitter includes a plurality of terminals, an excitation source, a measurement device, and a controller. The plurality of terminals is couplable to an RTD. The excitation source is operably coupled to the plurality of terminals and is configured to apply an excitation signal to the RTD. The measurement device is coupled to the plurality of terminals and is configured to measure a response of the RTD to the applied excitation signal. The controller is coupled to the excitation source and the measurement device. The controller is configured to perform an RTD resistance measurement by causing the excitation source to apply the excitation signal to the RTD and to cause the measurement device to measure the response of the RTD while the excitation signal is applied to the RTD. The controller is also configured to perform an RTD diagnostic by causing the excitation source to change application of the excitation signal and causing the measurement device to measure an RTD response to the changed excitation signal.
