Roxspur Measurement and Control: For Good Measure RM&C Ltd

The GEN 310 is an encapsulated in-head temperature transmitter with an integral spring mounting kit that replaces the standard connecting block in the sensor head. It is small in size yet has a performance superior to other larger and more expensive transmitters.

The GEN 310 has full HART‚ communications protocol which allows the user to quickly and easily down-load information or interrogate the device enabling the following:

  • Simple re-ranging of sensor type and range
  • Easy on site re-calibration
  • Self documentation
  • Operation with proprietary software packages such as AMS Plant WebTM and CornerstoneTM
  • Remote configuration on the 4-20mA loop with a hand held communicator or with PC & HART‚ modem.
  • Online Digital communication concurrent with a 4-20mA Analogue signal.

All the standard HART‚ universal and common usage commands are fully implemented, with other device specific commands that enable access to the enhanced performance parameters of the GEN 310.
