Product catalog summary
Introduction
This document provides detailed information about Yokogawa's Differential Pressure and Pressure Transmitters, focusing on the DPharp digital sensor technology. It highlights the features, working principles, and benefits of these transmitters in industrial applications.

Specifications and Features
The DPharp transmitters offer unmatched precision and real-world accuracy, with long-term stability and low total cost of ownership. They feature multi-sensing functionality, fail-safe sensors, and are certified to IEC61508 standards for SIL2 and SIL3 applications. The transmitters are rugged and compact, with multiple material options for harsh environments.

Working Principle
The DPharp digital sensor uses two single crystal silicon resonators that vibrate at natural frequencies. Pressure application causes one resonator to enter tension and the other compression, allowing for direct frequency counting by the CPU. This results in greater linearity, repeatability, and sensitivity.

Multi-Sensing Capability
The DPharp sensor can simultaneously measure static and differential pressure, as well as capsule and housing temperatures. This multi-sensing platform enables real-time dynamic compensation and advanced diagnostics, reducing lifecycle costs.

High Performance
Yokogawa transmitters ensure long-term accuracy and stability under varying conditions, minimizing recalibration needs. They guarantee long-term stability across a complete range of operating conditions.

Safety and Digital Solutions
The DPharp sensor is inherently fail-safe, with diagnostics to detect capsule errors. Yokogawa supports open standards like HART and FOUNDATION fieldbus, ensuring interoperability with process automation systems.

Robustness and Display
The transmitters are designed for harsh environments with robust enclosures and multiple material options. They feature intelligent indicators for clear display of process variables and diagnostics.

Response Time and Overpressure Protection
With a fast response time of 90 milliseconds, the transmitters quickly react to process changes. They include an overpressure diaphragm to protect against pressure surges.

Advanced Diagnostics
Features like Impulse Line Blockage Detection and heat tracing diagnostics enhance plant availability and enable predictive maintenance.

Premium Performance and High Pressure Capability
The EJX Series offers precision up to 0.025% and stability for 10 years. They can measure pressures up to 10,000 PSI with high accuracy.

Multi-Variable Transmitter
The EJX900 integrates multi-sensing with an onboard flow computer, supporting various standards and offering advanced diagnostics.

Wireless Technology
The EJX-B series extends DPharp technology to wireless applications, supporting ISA100 standards for secure and reliable communication.

Technology Evolution
Yokogawa has been a leader in pressure transmitter technology, with significant growth and advancements in the DPharp family over the decades.

Model Selection
The document provides a comparison of different models, highlighting their accuracy, stability, pressure capabilities, and additional features.

DPharp for The Digital World-3

WORKING PRINCIPLE Unequalled precision and long term stability for your measurements! DPharp digital sensor uses two single crystal silicon resonators vibrating at their natural frequencies. When pressure is applied, one of the resonators goes into tension, while the other goes into compression mode. The CPU directly counts the sensor output frequencies without any additional A/D conversion. Due to the excellent elastic properties of silicon material, the DPharp sensor exhibits greater linearity and repeatability, with no inherent hysteresis. Resonant sensor also provides a large output signal...

DPharp for The Digital World-4

FIELD DIGITAL SOLUTIONS Knowledge IEC61508 Certified Safety as Standard, Not an Option! DPharp is an active pressure sensor, so even with no pressure applied the resonators oscillate at their natural frequencies. Two independent resonators are utilized. If either one or both fail, the transmitter diagnostics detects a capsule error. DPharp sensor is inherently fail-safe with no undiscovered failure modes. A patented reverse calculation algorithm validates internal measurements, calculations and detects any malfunction of the CPU. DPharp transmitters are capable of SIL2 single use and SIL3 redundant...
