Field instruments & control

Measuring the process, not only the hazard


Pressure, temperature, level and flow, plus the controllers and control platforms that use them — from the same supplier that delivers your gas detection.

Overview

From the sensor to the control room


Honeywell's field and process instruments measure the variables that decide whether a plant runs safely and economically. In large installations, where thousands of transmitters are deployed, even marginal improvements in stability and accuracy accumulate into real savings — which is why the specification of a transmitter is not a commodity decision.

We supply the instruments and we engineer the conditions around them: the primary element, the impulse lines, the mounting position, the signal path and the documentation. A transmitter that is accurate on the datasheet and badly installed on the plant is an expensive way to produce wrong numbers.

Field instruments and control platforms


VersaFlow flow meters

VersaFlow covers four flow measuring principles under one platform — electromagnetic, Coriolis mass, vortex and clamp-on ultrasonic — so the measuring principle can follow the medium rather than the supplier's product range.

FAQ

Questions about field instrumentation


Which measurements does the Honeywell field instrument range cover?

Pressure, temperature, level and flow as the four core process variables, plus multivariable transmitters that combine differential pressure, static pressure and temperature in one device and calculate compensated flow. Around them sit controllers, recorders and data acquisition, wireless transmitters, analytical instruments for pH, ORP, conductivity and dissolved oxygen, electric actuators and the ControlEdge and Experion control platforms.

Can a single supplier deliver both gas detection and process instrumentation?

That is the reason VERTEX GmbH exists in this form. The two disciplines share the same plant, the same cable routes, the same control system and often the same shutdown window, but they are usually bought from different suppliers and installed by different contractors. We quote them as one scope.

Do you support instrumentation that is already installed?

Yes. We identify the installed devices, check what is still supported by the manufacturer, and propose a route: replacing transmitters while keeping the cabling, migrating to a current generation, or adding measuring points. Spare parts supply for installed instrumentation is part of our daily work.

What decides whether a flow measurement reaches its stated accuracy?

Rarely the transmitter. The primary element, the straight inlet and outlet runs, the impulse lines and the mounting position decide it. We check those conditions before quoting a device, because an accurate instrument installed into unsuitable conditions produces precise numbers that are wrong.
