A field device with an electronics units with a communication interface for communication with a service unit, at least one measuring transmitter, which is connected to the electronics unit, for detecting a measuring quantity, and at least one triggering element connected to the electronics unit, wherein the electronics unit is designed and configured such that a first service request to the service unit occurs both when a threshold value of the measuring quantity is exceeded and upon an actuation of the triggering element.

Field device, measuring assembly and method of operation

A measuring device is provided, configured to be mounted on or in an opening of a container, the measuring device including: a flange configured to rest on a top of a wall of the container enclosing the opening of the container; and a clamping or spreading device configured to adjust and apply a clamping or spreading force to an underside of the wall or to an inside of the opening to secure the flange to the opening. A flange configured to be mounted on or in an opening of a container, and a container, are also provided.

Measuring device with a flange for mounting in a container, flange for mounting in a container, and container

An autonomous field device for process automation, having a sensor, a wireless module, and a fastening device to fasten the field device on a wall, wherein the fastening device has at least a two-part design and is formed such that a first, sensor-side part of the fastening device can be installed from a first side of the wall and a second part of the fastening device can be installed from a second side of the wall, wherein the parts of the fastening device form a mechanical first interface penetrating the wall in order to fasten the field device on the wall.

Fastening device for a field device

A sensor arrangement is provided for level measurement or point level measurement of a product or pressure measurement in a container, the sensor arrangement including: a sensor configure to transmit and receive a measurement signal and to calculate measurement data; and a display device, which is provided separately from the sensor, configured to be mounted on or in the container, and includes a receiver configured to wirelessly receive the measurement data of the sensor, and a signal indicator configured to display the measurement data of the sensor. A method is also provided for fill level measurement or limit level measurement of a filling material or pressure measurement in a container.

Self-sufficient display for fill level and limit level measuring devices

A field device having at least one radio communication means with at least two different operating modes, wherein the different operating modes can be activated as a function of the operating location of the field device, wherein the field device has at least one position determination means and is configured in order to determine an operating mode of the radio communication means from the position data and to make a selection according to predetermined conditions.

Regional parameterization for LoRaWAN

A radar measuring device for process automation in an industrial environment with integrated safety area monitoring having a controller which is set up to adjust the direction of the radar transmission signal emitted in such a way that the safety area around the object is completely irradiated even if the object moves.

Radar measurement apparatus with integrated safety zone monitoring

An add-on module for a sensor, such as a fill and/or limit level sensor, comprising a coupling unit, which is arranged to be communicatively couplable to at least one predetermined sensor, and a control unit, which is configured to enable and/or disable data processing of the at least one predetermined sensor. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a sensor unit for detecting a fill level and/or limit level, comprising at least one sensor, and such an additional module, as well as a method for controlling such a sensor unit.

Add-on module for manipulation protection of a sensor

A field device having a monitoring device for grounding and/or shield connections, wherein the monitoring device is connected to a power supply of the field device, an activation arrangement for activating a monitoring current and at least one current detection device downstream of the activation arrangement, wherein the at least one current detection device is connected to at least one component of the field device to be grounded and/or to be shielded.

Field device with monitor and method of operation

A field device with display means for the visual representation of states determined by the field device, wherein at least two display means are provided, which are each configured in a ring-shaped or ring-segment-shaped manner, as well as a method for the visual representation of states determined by a field device.
