Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / banibrata mukherjee
Transducer:It is a device which converts one form energy
(physical quantity) to another form of energy(normally
electrical quantity).
Transmitter:It is a device which converts the sensor output
into a form suitable for transmission over a large distance.

Answer / ibrahim s
TRANSDUSERS: Which is used to convert Physical Changes into
Electrical Measures(Resistance, capacitance, inductance).
TRANSMITTERS: It converts Input signal(electrical measures)
to desired output levels(ex: Change in resistance to 4-20mA
or change in resistance to 0-10V)

Answer / a.muthu kumar
TRANSDUCER: It's convert one form of energy into another
form of electrical enregy.
TRANSMITTER: Normally, the output from sensor and
transducer are low level electrical signals. It's amplify
the low level signal into 4-20 mA or 0-10 V signal and
transmit this signals.

Answer / chandrasekar
Transducer is a device which converts on form of energy to
other form of energy.simply from non-Electric quantity
(pressure, temperature etc) to an electric quantity(voltage
or current)
Transmitter is a device which helps to convert a signal(may
be electrical or non-Electrical) into a form suitable for
transmission over a large distance.

Answer / abdus sattar mollah
transducer: that converts variations in any physical measurand(temp,pressure) into a form of energy that can be measured directly(voltage output) or indirectly (chanege in resistance; which can be again measured by using of an mutimeter).
Transmitter: A transmitter is also a transducer that converts any physical measurand into 4-20 mA of standard current output.
remeber every transmitter is a transducer but very ttransucer is not transmitter

Answer / abdul hameed
TRANSDUCER;
THH device which is used to convert a bad character person
in to good character
(means conversion of signals in to electrical variations)
TRANSMITTER;
THE DEVICE which is used to strengthen the signal by low
attenuation and increase the frequency of that signals.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / manoj
Transducer it converts non electrical quantity (temp,press)
To an electrical quantity
Transducer can act as transmitter and receiver
Transmitter -it transmit signal one point to another point with a carrier signal added to original information
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / axeman
“A transducer sends a signal in volts (V) or millivolt (mV)
and a transmitter sends a signal in milliamps (mA).”
“If you want to run the electrical output signal over
larger distances, you would require a transmitter which is
basically a transducer with extra electronics to amplify
the signal.”

Answer / siddhesh
Transmitter is a device that converts reading from sensor
or transducer in to a standard signal and transmitts that
signal to monitor or control
where as
Transducer is a device which converts mechanical signal to
electrical signal
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 4 Yes | 6 No |
Answer / rajesh kumar
Which converts one form of energy i.e (non electrical
energy) into other form i.e (electrical energy)
example: bellows & bourdan tubes these are primary
transducer
transmitter which transmits the signal from one point to
other point without the signal loss
