    摘要: A sensor arrangement which is configured for measuring a filling level, a limit level and/or a pressure and has an antenna for transmitting and/or receiving a measurement signal, a waveguide with a first waveguide section for connection to the antenna and a second waveguide section, configured for transmitting the measurement signal, and a heat insulating element. The heat insulating element is arranged between the first and second waveguide sections and is arranged to at least partially prevent heat conduction between the first and second waveguide sections. The invention further relates to a heat insulating element for a sensor arrangement, the use of a heat insulating element for heat insulation of electronics of a level, limit level and/or pressure measuring device and the use of a sensor arrangement in a process plant.

    摘要: A tank arrangement including a guided wave radar level gauge installed in a tank, and having a single wire transmission line probe extending through a passage through a conducting structure in the tank. Along the section of the probe that extends through the passage, the arrangement comprises a propagation field limiting structure adapted to reduce a propagation field of an electromagnetic signal propagating along the probe. With this design, the radial extension of the propagating field can be locally reduced so that a sufficient portion of the signal power is allowed to pass through the passage.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a field device for determining a process variable and providing a measurement signal indicative of the process variable to a remote location via a two-wire current loop. The field device comprises a measurement device for determining the process variable; a current control device electrically connected in series with the measurement device and controllable by the measurement device to provide the measurement signal to the two-wire current loop; and voltage regulation circuitry electrically connected in series with the current control device and the measurement device for controlling a voltage across the current control device towards a desired voltage by varying a voltage across the voltage regulation circuitry.
