New features expand diagnostic coverage beyond transmitter electronics
to identify and prevent abnormal process and installation issues. The
new Power Advisory Diagnostic helps ensure the integrity of the
electrical loop by detecting unwanted changing electrical conditions,
such as water in the terminal housing, ground loop issues, corrosion of
terminals or an unstable power supply. The Advanced Hart Diagnostics
Suite also includes Statistical Process Monitoring technology, to measure and analyze previously unseen process noise, providing
intelligent process insight. This is said to produce a significant
expansion in the range of process diagnostic applications, such as detection of furnace flame
instability, incipient distillation column flooding and valve or pump
cavitation.Emerson Process Managementwww.emersonprocess.com800.854.8257
