Purpose
Overview
Depending on the version, a transmitter measures corrosive, non-corrosive and hazardous gases, vapors and liquids.
You can use the transmitter for the following types of measurement:
● Gauge pressure
● Absolute pressure
With appropriate parameter settings and the necessary add-on parts (e.g. flow orifices and remote seals), the pressure
transmitter can also be used for the following measurements:
● Level
● Volume
● Mass
The output signal is a load-independent direct current of 4 to 20 mA which is linearly proportional to the input pressure.
The "Intrinsically-safe" version of the transmitter can be installed in hazardous areas (zone 1). The devices have an EC type
examination certificate and comply with the appropriate harmonized European CENELEC directives.
Operate the device in accordance with the specifications in Section Technical data (Page 25).
For additional information, please refer to the operating instructions for the device.
