An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Wirelesshart switch enables level detection from
Emerson Process Management, which we summarised at the time by saying "Emerson Process Management has introduced a Wirelesshart point-level switch, which enables level detection to be made in locations previously inaccessible or too costly for wired devices. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Transmitters measure mass and energy flow from
Emerson Process Management: "Emerson Process Management introduces the Rosemount 3051S multi-variable transmitter, which measures three variables and provides mass and energy flow output. ".
In October 2009, we covered the news from Emerson Process Management
- take a look at Emerson wireless monitor gives position feedback
which says: "Emerson Process Management has expanded its Smart Wireless family with the release of the Fisher 4320 wireless position monitor. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Emerson Process Management, MVD transmitter technology enhances Emerson meters,
as well as Emerson supplies Ovation expert control system from Emerson Process Management,
and Emerson's Plantweb to automate biofuels plant from Emerson Process Management.
