Innovative temperature transmitter with True Drift Detection now available globally

Klingenberg, November 2024. Just one year after its market launch, WIKA’s Model T38 digital temperature transmitter already has all the important international approvals and is therefore available worldwide. The transmitter ensures even greater process reliability thanks to innovative drift detection. The T38 can also be used flexibly, as its six sensor connection terminals allow countless possible combinations with input sensors.

True Drift Detection is a new monitoring function developed by WIKA. Permanent monitoring using two perfectly matched sensors enables a drifting sensor to be recognised immediately. This allows operators to intervene immediately in the event of faulty measurements. Process reliability is therefore guaranteed at all times.

The temperature transmitter fulfils all the requirements of IEC 61508 and is designed for universal use. A head-mounted and a rail-mounted version as well as SIL and various Ex versions of the T38 are available for customised integration. All variants can be programmed using the HART® protocol with a large number of open configuration tools.
