<p>A process control transmitter includes a transmitter housing and transmitter circuitry adapted for providing a transmitter output related to a sensed pressure. A sensor coupling in the housing defines a pressure sensor cavity which is filled with isolation fluid. An isolation diaphragm separates the sensor cavity from a process fluid and is adapted to transmit pressure therebetween. The pressure sensor is mounted in the sensor cavity and provides an output related to pressure to the transmitter circuitry. A thermal compensation member is coupled to the sensor cavity and has a thermal expansion coefficient which is different than a thermal expansion coefficient for the sensor coupling. The compensation member is adapted to compensate for pressure changes due to thermal expansion of the components or isolation fluid.</p> |
