Externally mounted relief valves to provide overpressure protection are available from Mensor as optional devices and are highly recommended for very low pressure trans- ducers.
  • Page 8: Product Description

    The CPT6140 gives a streaming output at 250Hz from a low hysteresis silicon sensor with electronically compensated pressure linearity over the specified temperature range. Communication with the CPT6140 is over a RS-232 or RS-485 serial bus.

    However, excessive motor or machinery vibration of the mounting surface should be avoided to further ensure stability and accuracy. For the greatest accuracy on transducers with a full scale range of less than 15 psi, set CPT6140 zero while it is oriented in its operational position. CPT6140 Operating Instructions...
  • Page 13: Pressure Connections

    CPT6140 5.5 Pressure Connections The pressure to be measured is applied to the port labeled P on top of the CPT6140. The reference connection for gauge pressure is made to the port labeled R. On gauge transducers the reference port is normally left open to atmosphere. If the transducer is used in a differential mode, static line pressures may affect the calibration.
  • Page 14: Connector J1 Wiring

    Power and signals are applied to J1, a 9-pin D-sub male connector. A nominal 12 VDC supply can be used to power the CPT6140 by applying 12 VDC to pin 6 and ground to pin 5. Power consump- tion is maximum 55mA at 12 VDC. The CPT6140 is protected against power input reversal. Com- munication wiring between the host and the CPT6140 is shown in Figures 5.6 and 5.6.3.

    6. Operation Avoid excessive overpressure to the transducer! Externally mounted relief valves to provide overpressure protection are available from Mensor as optional devices, and are highly recommended for very low pressure transducers. Caution User programmable exponential filtering is applied to pressure readings in order to minimize at or near static pressure noise.

    After calibration is completed the CPT6140 can be put back into the “burst mode” by sending the mode command with a value of 6. A save must also be sent in order to keep the CPT6140 in mode 6 in case power is cycled.

    The temperature should be stable, and within the specified calibration range. In addition, for maximum accuracy, see that the CPT6140 is at rest on a stable platform which is free of vibration and shock, and oriented similar to its final installation attitude. At the factory the CPT6140 is calibrated vertically with the pressure port at the top.

    Depending on the specific language used to generate them, these commands may have to be preceded by or enclosed in various symbols for transmission. For this procedure it is assumed that a single CPT6140 is connected to the host computer, and that its assigned address is unknown.

    2. Use the setup for absolute pressure shown in Figure 8.2. Apply a stable pressure value between 600 mTorr absolute and 20% of the transducer’s span. Measure the reference pressure reading in the native units of the CPT6140. This reading becomes the “true pressure”. 3. Clear the current zero offset from RAM.
