  • Publication number: 20230366743
    Abstract: A measuring device for determining a process variable of a medium includes a housing comprising a housing body with an inner surface. The measuring device includes a temperature measuring apparatus comprising a first temperature sensor configured to determine a first temperature value, and an evaluation circuit configured to determine a medium temperature as a function of the first temperature value. The measuring device also includes a rigid printed circuit board having a resilient printed circuit board component. The first temperature sensor is arranged on the printed circuit board component. The printed circuit board component at least partially touches the inner surface of the housing body.

  • Publication number: 20230236050
    Abstract: A magnetically inductive flow measuring probe comprises a housing that is adapted to be exposed to the medium; two measuring electrodes arranged in a housing end section for forming a galvanic contact with the medium and for sensing a voltage induced in the flowing medium; and a means for producing a magnetic field passing through the housing end section. The means includes a coil arrangement and a field guide body. The field guide body comprises two field guide body legs connected with a coil core, extending to a front section of the housing and adapted to serve as field guideback. Orthogonal projections of the measuring electrodes and the field guide body onto a cross sectional plane are disjoint.

  • Publication number: 20220244693
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for operating a field device used in process automation technology, wherein the field device has an NFC/RFID transponder, wherein an operating unit comprises an operating system which has an executable operating program, in particular application software, wherein the operating unit has an NFC/RFID reader. The method is characterized in that the NFC/RFID transponder comprises a memory which has data which, when read out using the NFC/RFID reader, triggers the calling up of the operating program in the operating unit.

  • Patent number: 11003169
    Abstract: The invention relates to a field device of measuring and automation technology. The field device has a radio module for providing access to an operating electronics of the field device. Such access enables the exchange of information between the operating electronics and a user. The radio module can be turned on by a first input signal sequence composed of accelerations of the field device housing and can be turned off by a second input signal sequence. A field device of the invention is shown schematically in FIG. 1.

  • Patent number: 6556447
    Abstract: The electronic apparatus (1) has an enclosure (10), which has a terminal compartment (12) and an electronics compartment (11). These two compartments are separated by an internal wall (13) which has a longitudinal slot (131) of depth T in which a bushing (14) is fitted. The bushing is to be flameproof designed. To this the enclosure (10) comprises: 1) A baseboard (141) which extends into and is mounted in the electronics compartment, has a stop (142), and can be fitted with electronic components (143); 2) a lead arrangement (144) extending into the terminal compartment (12) and contacting the components on the baseboard; and 3) a plastic part (146) which surrounds the lead arrangement, is formed integrally with the stop (142), and has the shape of, and thus fills, the longitudinal slot (131).
