Disclosed herein are advantageous measuring devices, and systems of the present disclosure and adjustment methods/techniques thereof. The present disclosure provides improved measuring devices (e.g., pressure/temperature measuring devices), and improved systems/methods for adjusting one or more features (e.g., offset and/or span) associated with measuring devices. More particularly, the present disclosure provides sealed measuring devices (e.g., sealed signal conditioning devices, such as sealed pressure transducers or transmitters) having adjustment members (e.g., magnet members) that allow a user to adjust the offset and/or span of the sealed measuring devices. The measuring devices include an adjustment member that allows a user to make adjustments to one or more features of the measuring devices. For example, a sealed pressure transducer can include an magnet member that allows a user to make fine (precision) adjustments of output offset and/or span (e.g., in the field), without breaching the enclosure or housing of the measuring device.
The present disclosure provides improved process measurement assemblies and methods for replacing/installing devices/instruments (e.g., gauges, digital gauges, transducers, switches, etc.) associated with process measurement assemblies. More particularly, the present disclosure provides improved process measurement assemblies (e.g., diaphragm seal assemblies or isolation ring assemblies) having couplings (e.g., dry-break couplings) that allow a user to replace and/or install process measurement instruments/devices to and/or from the process measurement assemblies, and related methods of use. In general, the present disclosure provides for improved systems/methods for installing or replacing a process measurement instrument to and/or from process measurement assemblies (e.g., diaphragm seal assemblies or isolation ring assemblies). In exemplary embodiments, the present disclosure provides for a system/method for installing/replacing a process measurement instrument wherein the process operating under pressure is a flow stream process, the flow stream process having a solids content.
G01D 11/00 - Component parts of measuring arrangements not specially adapted for a specific variable
G01L 19/00 - MEASURING FORCE, STRESS, TORQUE, WORK, MECHANICAL POWER, MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY, OR FLUID PRESSURE - Details of, or accessories for, apparatus for measuring steady or quasi-steady pressure of a fluent medium insofar as such details or accessories are not special to particular types of pressure gauges

SPAN ADJUSTMENT FOR SUSPENDED MOVEMENT MEASURING DEVICES
The present disclosure provides for systems and methods for fabricating suspended movement measuring devices, e.g., a pressure gauge, thermometer or the like. More particularly, the present disclosure provides for systems and methods for fabricating suspended movement measuring device assemblies having span adjustment. In one embodiment, the present disclosure provides for systems and methods for fabricating suspended movement measuring device assemblies having span adjustment, wherein the measuring device may be calibrated from the front of the dial of the measuring device.
G01D 5/10 - Applying external forces to increase force available for operation of indicating or recording part
G01D 5/04 - Mechanical means for transferring the output of a sensing member; Means for converting the output of a sensing member to another variable where the form or nature of the sensing member does not constrain the means for converting; Transducers not specially adapted for a specific variable using mechanical means using gearing
G01L 7/04 - Measuring the steady or quasi-steady pressure of a fluid or a fluent solid material by mechanical or fluid pressure-sensitive elements in the form of elastically-deformable gauges in the form of flexible, deformable tubes, e.g. Bourdon gauges
