E&H PMD78B pressure transmitter
Product Overview
The E&H Deltabar PMD78B is a specialist differential pressure transmitter engineered for precise measurement in challenging process environments. Designed with one or two capillaries, the PMD78B excels in applications where direct process connection is difficult or extreme temperatures demand remote sensor placement-25.
The PMD78B belongs to the new Deltabar generation, combining robust construction with secure Bluetooth connectivity for wireless remote operation via the SmartBlue App-2. This transmitter allows condition-based maintenance strategies that significantly increase plant availability. The embedded firmware incorporates intuitive wizards that guide users through commissioning, proof tests, and device verification, reducing systematic errors from the outset-2.
A defining feature of the PMD78B is the TempC membrane, which minimizes ambient and process temperature effects on measurement accuracy, ensuring reliable readings even under fluctuating thermal conditions-11. The device is supported by the FLEX selection framework, offering tiers from Fundamental to Xpert to match specific application requirements-27.
Heartbeat Technology & Advanced Diagnostics
The PMD78B integrates Heartbeat Technology, a comprehensive diagnostic suite that revolutionizes process monitoring. This technology enables on-demand verification and continuous monitoring functions that detect unwanted anomalies while the process remains fully operational-2-11.
Key detection capabilities include:
Plugged impulse lines
Dynamic pressure shocks
Supply voltage fluctuations
The device provides simple visual indication of its status: the display changes from green to red when diagnostic messages occur, offering immediate feedback to operators-2. Heartbeat Technology helps reduce systematic failures, enables error-free SIL commissioning, and facilitates instrument-guided proof testing-.
