Series MSX Pro Magnesense
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
The Series MSX Pro Magnesense
professional differential pressure transmitter meeting stringent industry standards with
innovative global product design. The device has exceptional stability for use in critical
building performance applications with the popular versatility of our original Series MS2
Magnesense
II transmitter. The MSX Pro simplifies the ordering process to deliver
®
the desired configuration, which reduces product setup time. Pressure ranges of Pa,
mm w.c., and in w.c. are available per device. All pressure ranges can be configured
in unidirectional or bidirectional modes providing a total of 32 ranges. The MSX Pro
transmitter can provide a linear pressure output or a linear velocity output with the
square root extraction from the transmitter. Additional parameters have been included
to expand the square root capability to calculate flow. Dual voltage and milliamp output
signals can be used to provide control and equipment output signal verification.
INSTALLATION
Surface Mounting:
Mount the transmitter on a vertical surface. The pressure sensor measurement
is unaffected by orientation, but it is recommended the unit be mounted with the
connections facing down to prevent moisture from entering either the pressure ports
or the electrical cable entry. Attach the mounting flange to a flat surface using #8 x 1/2˝
pan head sheet metal screws. Do not over tighten.
Duct Mounting (Universal model required):
Mount the transmitter away from fans, corners, heating and cooling coils and other
equipment that will affect the measurement of the pressure.
1. To mount the transmitter, drill a .562˝ (12.70 mm) diameter hole into the duct.
2. Screw duct probe into back of housing. Insert transmitter probe into the duct.
3. Mark location of mounting holes on duct using mounting flange as template. Drill
holes.
4. Attach mounting flange to duct with #8 x 1/2˝ pan head sheet metal screws. Do
not over tighten screws.
5. Place the included cap on the exterior positive pressure port.
The Universal model can also be used as a standard wall mount transmitter. In this
mode, do not use the duct probe and plug the port on the backside of the transmitter
with the included plug.
