Abstract: Transmitter selection can be summed in general terms under a heading of application. Even though generically speaking pressure transmitters are all the same, the fitness of use for transmitters is not the same. The total accuracy statement of a transmitter that has been hardened to withstand extreme corrosive effects will not appear equal to a reference class transmitter. This kind of information is not within the scope of a transmitter data sheets and there in resides a challenge for users. The history of oil and gas measurement has followed directly the advances made in transmitter technology. As close as 10 years past total sight error budget of 3 - 4% was more the norm than the exception. The transmitters used were for the most part analog and did not have the repeatability or stability to support data where sight requirements were more stringent. Few of these sights were capable of meeting the TEB1 over temperature and even fewer of the locations were able to meet the TEB when over pressure effects were added to the requirements
