By: Yokogawa Yokogawa’s differential pressure/pressure transmitters are playing a key role in achieving the objectives of the Evolution 2015 mid-term business plan, which calls for the company to focus on the booming upstream oil and gas industries, and in the implementation of a control business strategy that commits the company to capturing the No.1 position in the global sensor market. With this new low-power DPharp transmitter, Yokogawa aims to expand its control business and achieve the targets set out in its Evolution 2015 plan. Development Background Differential pressure/pressure transmitters are widely used in the oil, petrochemical, and chemical industries to measure the pressure, flow rate, and level of liquid, gas, and steam. They can be found both in plants and in the field, at locations such as oil and gas wells. Thanks to the global rise in demand for energy, oil and gas resources are being actively developed. As technological progress in recent years has made it possible to develop and produce oil and gas in places with poor infrastructure (such as electricity and communications) Product Features 1. Superior energy efficiency Thanks to a redesign of its power circuitry, this new low-power DPharp EJA-E series transmitter achieves superior energy efficiency, consuming just 27 mW (0.96 to 3 mA) of power. 2. Superior accuracy and stability Like all DPharp transmitters, this new low-power model is both highly accurate and stable. It has a reference accuracy of ±0.055% and will remain within ±0.1% of the upper range limit for seven years. In these respects, this new product outperforms most other generally available low-power models with equivalent specifications. 3. Easy installation and maintenance Basic settings for this new DPharp transmitter can be done easily using a setting switch and an external adjustment screw on the transmitter. Major Target Markets Process industries such as oil and natural gas, petrochemicals, chemicals, iron and steel, pulp and paper, power, and water treatment Applications Measurement of pressure and flow rate of liquid, gas, and steam; measurement of liquid level Yokogawa’s Approach to This Field In 1961, Yokogawa became the first company in Japan to release a differential pressure/pressure transmitter to the market. In 1991, we were the first to introduce a monocrystal silicon resonant sensor and a micro-electro- About Yokogawa Yokogawa's global network of 86 companies spans 56 countries.
