ABSTRACT:
An overpressure vent in a transmitter housing of a process transmitter. The transmitter is configured for coupling to an industrial process and measuring a process variable. The transmitter includes an enclosure having a cavity formed therein. A process coupling is configured to couple the cavity to the industrial process. The overpressure vent is arranged to vent an overpressure in the cavity to outside of the transmitter enclosure.
