39、, more production facilities are turning to digital sensing technology to provide the real-time insights they need for improved performance.

40、ters （參數(shù)）,delivering reliable and accurate measurement of plant operations. The unique aspect of this digital technology is that it measures two parameters in one sensor module, providing additional insight into a plant's operations. It is the only sensor in the world that docs this.DPharp trans

41、mitters（發(fā)身I寸器）use silicon（硅）resonant（諧振的）sensor technology to measure both differential and still pressure. The sensor consists of two H-shaped crystal silicon resonators that shake at a certain frequency and, when pressure is applied, the frequency of one resonator increases while the other decreas

42、es. By monitoring these frequencies digitally, both differential and still pressure can be measured at the same time. The frequency output is directly read by the central processing unit of the transmitter.DPharp can be used in any processing plant across any industryfrom oil and gas to food and dri

43、nks. DPharp's unique digital sensing technology allows engineering firms and plant engineers to create designs that will equate to an average reduction of 40 percent. Where they would typically use five measuring devices, they are using three by using the multi-sensing technology. That is a sign

44、ificant cost reduction in the number of devices installed and the added benefit is that, as there are less devices, the engineering and design is less complex, which means less materials and less equipment to maintain. Furthermore, there are fewer transmitter spares required, which reduces costs. To

46、or.D. It provides accurate measurement.33. What is the frequency output read by?A. Two H-shaped crystal silicon resonators.B. The central processing unit of the transmitter.C. Monitoring devices.D. The operator of the plant.34. What is the plants* attitude to DPharp?A. Cautious. B. Skeptical. C. Fav

47、orable. D. Disapproving.35. What is the text mainly about?A. How DPhai-p is bringing value across production plants.B. How sensor works in a different way.C.
