DEVICE FOR READING AND TRANSMITTING MEASURED TEMPERATURE VALUES
First Claim
1. a device configured to read and transmit measured values of temperature for a device configured to monitor and control a fluid flowing inside of a conduit, wherein the device configured to read and transmit measured values of temperature comprises:
- a temperature sensor configured to supply values of temperature as a function of time;
a processing module configured to process the temperature values;
a transmitter connected to the temperature sensor and configured to transmit signals representative of the temperature values; and
a receiver configured to receive the signals,wherein the temperature sensor is configured to be installed in a position close to the conduit; and
wherein the processing module is configured to evaluate a rate of variation of temperature and generate a signal warning of a transformation of the fluid into a solid phase when the rate of variation of temperature decreases within a given interval of time.

Abstract
A device for reading and transmitting measured temperature values for a device for monitoring a fluid flowing inside a pipe is disclosed. The device may include a temperature sensor configured to provide temperature values in accordance with time and a processing module, as well as a transmitter connected to the temperature sensor and configured to transmit signals that represent said temperature values, and a receiver configured to receive said signals. The temperature sensor may be mounted in a position that is close to the pipe. In addition, the processing module may be configured to assess a temperature variation speed, and of producing a signal to alert of the transformation of the fluid to the solid phase, when the temperature variation speed decreases over a given time interval.
