3151TG Smart Pressure Transmitter Overview

The 3151TG smart pressure transmitter is a high-precision intelligent field instrument used for process pressure measurement. It can measure pressure in liquid, gas, and steam applications and convert the measured value into a standard 4–20 mA DC analog signal with HART communication.

The transmitter supports local configuration and remote communication. Users can adjust zero point, span, engineering unit, damping time, output function, alarm setting, and other parameters through local buttons, a HART handheld communicator, or a host system.

Although the product name is 3151TG Smart Pressure Transmitter, the 3151 series platform can also support differential pressure, gauge pressure, absolute pressure, level, vacuum, and density-related measurement applications depending on the selected model and sensor range.


4–20 mA HART Pressure Transmitter Output and Communication

The 3151TG pressure transmitter provides standard industrial output signals for process automation systems.

Output TypeDescription
4–20 mA DC + HARTAnalog pressure signal with digital pressure and temperature communication
EPA / FF / PROFIBUS PAFull digital fieldbus communication options for pressure, temperature, and percentage range data

The 4–20 mA + HART version is suitable for most conventional pressure measurement loops. It allows the transmitter to send analog process signals to PLC/DCS systems while also supporting digital communication for configuration, diagnostics, and maintenance.


Key Features of the 3151TG Industrial Pressure Transmitter

Wide Pressure Measurement Range

The 3151TG provides flexible pressure range options. For gauge pressure applications, the measurement range can cover from very low pressure up to high-pressure industrial service.

Typical series range options include:

  • Differential pressure: 0–0.05 kPa to 7 MPa
  • Gauge pressure: 0–0.15 kPa to 42 MPa
  • Absolute pressure: 0–40 kPa to 7 MPa

The exact range depends on the selected sensor module and model configuration.

Compact, Rugged, and Anti-Vibration Structure

The transmitter uses a compact and robust housing design. It is suitable for field installation in industrial environments where vibration, mechanical stress, and harsh operating conditions may be present.

Local Zero and Span Adjustment

The transmitter housing includes local zero and span adjustment functions. Operators can perform on-site adjustment without complex external tools, which simplifies installation, calibration, and commissioning.

LCD Display with Multi-Parameter Indication

The optional local digital LCD display can show multiple parameters in a cyclic display mode, including:

  • measured pressure value
  • analog output current
  • percentage of the configured range
  • sensor body and contacted medium temperature

This helps operators check field conditions directly at the transmitter.

HART Remote Communication

With HART communication, users can configure and monitor the transmitter through a handheld communicator or host system. This supports remote parameter setting, diagnostics, maintenance, and loop checking.

Adjustable Damping

The damping time can be configured according to process conditions. This is useful when the measured pressure fluctuates or when a smoother output signal is required.

Smart Diagnostics and Fault Recovery

The intelligent circuit design supports transmitter diagnostics and improves fault recovery capability, helping reduce maintenance workload and improve operational reliability.

Modular Electronics Design

The transmitter uses solid plug-in printed circuit boards and a modular structure. This design helps simplify troubleshooting, reduce spare parts inventory, and improve maintenance convenience.

Anti-Interference Design

Independent electromagnetic interference protection circuits and software anti-interference design help improve reliability in industrial sites with electrical noise, motors, inverters, and complex wiring environments.

316L Stainless Steel Wetted Parts

The wetted components are made of 316L stainless steel, suitable for many common industrial liquids, gases, and steam applications. For corrosive media, material compatibility should still be confirmed carefully.

Measuring Range Options for Smart Pressure Transmitter Applications

The 3151 series can be selected according to different measurement parameters.

Measurement TypeTypical Range
Differential Pressure0–0.05 kPa to 7 MPa
Gauge Pressure0–0.15 kPa to 42 MPa
Absolute Pressure0–40 kPa to 7 MPa

For the 3151TG smart pressure transmitter, gauge pressure measurement is the main application. If the project requires differential pressure or absolute pressure measurement, the corresponding 3151 series model should be selected according to the application.


Local Display and Configuration for Pressure Transmitter Operation

The 3151TG smart pressure transmitter is designed to make field operation easier. The local LCD display and configuration buttons allow users to check key operating data and perform basic parameter setting directly at the instrument.

The display can show:

Display ItemFunction
Measured PressureDisplays real-time process pressure
Analog Output CurrentDisplays the 4–20 mA output value
Percentage RangeDisplays pressure as percentage of configured range
Sensor / Medium Contact TemperatureDisplays temperature information from the internal sensor

This multi-parameter display is useful during commissioning, maintenance, troubleshooting, and routine site inspection.


Intelligent Pressure Transmitter Structure and Working Principle

The 3151TG smart pressure transmitter consists mainly of a sensor module and an electronic circuit module.

The sensor section includes:

  • pressure sensing element
  • direct digital capacitive circuit
  • temperature sensor
  • characterization EEPROM

The electronics section includes:

  • microprocessor
  • digital-to-analog converter
  • digital communication circuit
  • memory EEPROM

During operation, the pressure sensing element detects the process pressure. The signal is processed by the sensor circuit and microprocessor. Temperature compensation and characterization data are used to improve measurement stability. The final signal is converted into 4–20 mA DC output and digital HART communication data.

In simple terms:

Process Pressure → Sensor Module → Digital Signal Processing → 4–20 mA DC / HART Output


Industrial Applications of 3151TG Smart Pressure Transmitter

Chemical and Petrochemical Pressure Measurement

The 3151TG can be used for pressure monitoring in reactors, pipelines, pumps, tanks, separators, distillation systems, and process equipment. For corrosive media, diaphragm and connection material compatibility should be checked before selection.
