Page 18: Field Adjustment
3.4 Field Adjustment Perform field adjustments only after installing the transmitter at its final work location otherwise the set parameters may drift due to jerks while transporting or handling. Zero Point Adjustment For sensor zero trim, ensure that the vessel is empty and there is no input medium pressure on the diaphragm. -
Page 19: Steam Flow Measurement
Differential pressure transmitters are commonly used for micro pressure measurement of hydrostatic pressures such as filter and equipment leakage tests for improving accuracy. Steam flow measurement For steam flow measurement, up-tilt the guiding pressure tube by 45°. Ensure that transmitter installation location is at lower level than that of the process pipeline. Pre- inject cooling liquid into the guiding pressure tube. -
Page 20: Electrical Connections
4 Electrical Connections This section covers the all electrical connection requirement. Electrical connection of the device must be carried out by trained, qualified specialists authorized to perform such work by the installation site. WARNING Connect all electrical cables when the power is switched off. If the device does not have switch-off elements, then, overcurrent protection devices, lightning protection and/or energy isolating devices must be provided by the customer. -
Page 21: Power Supply Specifications And Connection
4.2 Power Supply Specifications and Connection Use independent linear direct current power supply for pressure transmitter. Large resistive load results in high pressure drop. Therefore, it is recommended to consider the resistance across the signal cable, display meter and other equipment to ensure sufficient voltage is provided to the pressure transmitter for its normal operation. -
