PROCESS FLUID FLOW TRANSMITTER WITH FINNED COPLANAR PROCESS FLUID FLANGE

摘要

A process fluid pressure measurement system (10) is provided. The system includes a process fluid pressure transmitter (12) having a pair of process fluid ports disposed coplanar with one another on a bottom surface thereof. The process fluid pressure transmitter (12) is configured to measure a differential pressure between the pair of process fluid ports and provide an indication of the measured differential pressure over a process communication loop. A process fluid flange (18) has a first surface (36) configured to mount to the surface of the process fluid pressure transmitter (12) a second surface (34) opposed to the first surface (36) and at least one lateral sidewall (37) extending between the first and second surface (36 34). A plurality of fins (32) are disposed proximate the lateral surface (37).
