will be more than Overload protection .

having limits for blow out protection has to be the tolerance type ; just above Overload Range !.

It depends upon what the transmitter is connected to and what the thing does when it receives a blowout signal, which cannot be seen from here.

So, what is the application?

Hello Sir ,

If { temperature } sensing path opens before signal reaches Transmitter ; O/P of transmitter will be made with Upscale protection { in 4 - 20 mA o/p} .

If path gets shorted , can be as Downscale .

Setting the range with External resistance box - For the transmitter is also possible . As specific model is not in topic ; below link may be clueful to you .
