Chapter 1. Description 1-1. General The Pneumatic Transmitter (Model K_P), in conjunction with respective type of detector (meter body), is used to detect and transmit a process pressure, differential pressure, liquid level, or specific-gravity. This manual covers the structure and maintenance of the transmitter itself and adjustment of the transmitter coupled with the meter body.
1-3. Combinations with detector (Meter body) Measured Range or Type Model No. Operator’s Object Manual Differential High/medium differential pressures KDP11/22 OM2-5220-1100 pressures Low-differential pressures KDP33 Very low differential pressure KDP44 Flange type KDP61/62 Remote-sealed type KDP71/72 High working pressure type KDP81/82 Process High pressures...
Chapter 2. Operating principle The input for the transmitter is applied as a torque through the torque tube. The torque causes the gap between the nozzle and flapper to change. The gap change causes the back pressure of the nozzle to change. The back pressure is boosted in both pressure and capacity by the pilot relay in order to be used as an output air pressure.
Chapter 3. Installation and operation 3-1. Installation The transmitter (Model K_P) is installed in the state that it is coupled to a detector (meter body). Installation and connection to the process is done by means of the meter body. For installation, refer to the operator’s manual of the meter body used in conJunction.
When the meter body is required to be modified due to specification change or application change or due to failure, order your Azbil agent. If it is required to be modified for yourself, order the service tools and Service Manual SM2-5220-0000 “Replacement Procedure of Meter Bodies.

Chapter 5. Calibration and adjustment 5-1. General The detector (meter body) feeds a torque, which is proportional to the measured process variable, via the torque tube to the transmitting mechanism of the transmitter. Therefore, regardless of the type of the meter body, the transmitter should be adjusted so that it transmits an output signal of 0.2 to 1.0 kgf/cm linearly proportional to the 0 % to 100 % measuring range.
(8) If the output pressure is shifted from 100 %, adjust the SPAN ADJ boss at the bottom of the feedback bellows as follows: If the output is higher than 100 %, turn the boss so that the output becomes lower than 100 % by an amount of 1/4 of the shift.
5-4. Calibration of absolute pressure transmitter (Refer to procedure of 5-3.) To calibrate a transmitter which has a vacuum measuring range alone or which has a compound measuring range including a vacuum range at a substantial rate, use such devices as vacuum pump and needle valve for the variable pressure source.
