Claim Text:
1. A process fluid pressure measurement system comprising: a process fluid pressure transmitter having a pair of process fluid ports disposed in a plane with one another on a surface thereof, the process fluid pressure transmitter being configured to measure a differential pressure between the pair of process fluid ports and provide an indication of the measured differential pressure over a process communication loop; a process fluid flange having a first surface configured to mount to a bottom surface of the process fluid pressure transmitter, a second surface opposed to the first surface configured to fluidically couple to impulse lines which connect to a process fluid pipe, and a lateral sidewall extending between the first and second surface; and a plurality of fins extending from the lateral sidewall, the plurality of fins extending between the first surface and the second surface of the process fluid flange and oriented at a perpendicular angle to a plane defined by the first surface and at a perpendicular angle to a plane defined by the second surface.
