DifferentialPressureTransmissionFunction
⊑ PressureTransmissionFunction
Realized in
DifferentialPressureMeasurementAndTransmissionProcess
⊑ PressureMeasurementAndTransmissionProcess
The identity-giving function is measuring the difference between two pressures and transmitting this differential as a standardized signal, which is a specific subtype of pressure transmission that requires two pressure inputs rather than one absolute pressure.

Genus Determination
PressureTransmitter
ISO 15926 explicitly states this is a subtype of PRESSURE TRANSMITTER. The parent_candidates include 'pressure transmitter' which is already enriched in our ontology. This is the most specific appropriate superclass - more specific than 'transmitter' but still a genuine supertype of differential pressure transmitter.

3
Necessary Parts
No necessary parts recorded (concept may be primitive at this level).
Differential pressure transmitters require specialized components to handle two pressure inputs and compute their difference, beyond the basic signal transmission components inherited from the transmitter genus.

Process Participation Signature ⟨I, O, T⟩
Inputs (I)
PressureMeasurementResult
— pressure value P1
PressureMeasurementResult
— pressure value P2
Outputs (O)
InformationContentEntity
— proportional to (P1 - P2)
Transformation (T)
pressure difference calculation and signal conversion
The signature requires two pressure inputs to compute differential, distinguishing it from single-input pressure transmitters. Output is standardized signal proportional to pressure difference.

Cross-Standard Observations
ISO 15926 provides structural definition as intersection of pressure transmitter and differential pressure measuring instrument, while CFIHOS focuses on functional definition of producing standardized output from pressure difference input. Both align on the differential pressure measurement and signal transmission capability.
