9.4 Differential pressure and flow rate
Condition
All valves are closed.
Procedure
Toxic liquids
Danger of poisoning when the device is vented.
If toxic process media are measured with this device, toxic liquids can escape when the
device is vented.
• Before venting, make sure there is no liquid in the device or take the necessary safety
To commission the transmitter with liquids, proceed as follows:
1. Open both the shut-off valves
2. Open the stabilizing valve
3. With transmitters below the differential pressure transducer, open both blowout valves
4. Close both drain valves
5. Open the differential pressure valve
6. Close the vent valve.
7. Open the vent valve on the negative side of the transmitter
8. Close the differential pressure valve
9. Open the differential pressure valve
10.Close the vent valve on the negative side of the transmitter
11.Open the differential pressure valve
12.Check and if required adjust the zero point (4 mA) if the start of scale value is 0 bar.
13.Close the stabilizing valve
