Preface Qualification of Personnel Make sure that all personnel have manufacturer-approved training applicable to the auxiliary equipment. Personal Safety Equipment Make sure that operators and maintenance personnel have all safety equipment applicable to the auxiliary equipment. Examples include safety glasses, protective headgear, safety shoes, etc. Unauthorized Operation Make sure that unauthorized personnel cannot gain access to the operation of the equipment.
Unpacking and Inspection Upon receipt of the DewPro MMY30 transmitter, examine the shipping carton for broken or open packing, distortion, or any other evidence of mishandling. If an examination indicates there is damage to the unit or any of its components, notify the carrier (within 15 days of delivery) and request an inspection.

1.3.1 Unit Description The DewPro MMY30 trace moisture transmitter (shown in Figure 2 below) is a loop-powered dewpoint measuring device. The transmitter includes a sensor element, a flow chamber, a weather-proof enclosure, microprocessor electronics, and assorted fittings, all in a compact assembly. In most cases, either the inlet or outlet port includes an orifice to regulate the flow.
4 to 20 mA Loop The DewPro MMY30 transmitter is powered by a DC voltage supply from 12 to 28 VDC. At the nominal 24 VDC supply, the maximum loop resistance is 600 ohms. The signal is represented by the 4 to 20 mA loop current and is directly proportional to the dewpoint range in °C or °F.
Choose a mounting location which allows enough clearance for the use of tools and for connection of the field validator. Figure 3 below shows the dimensions of the standard DewPro MMY30, and Figure 4 on page 6 shows the DewPro MMY30 with the optional display/user interface.

Take all necessary precautions when mounting or removing the DewPro MMY30. • Mount the DewPro MMY30 vertically whenever possible to prevent solid particles or condensation from entering the bypass line. • Mount the DewPro MMY30 downstream from a shut-off valve to depressurize the DewPro MMY30 when removing it from the process pipe for maintenance or field compensation.
Air Flow The DewPro MMY30 is designed to measure the pressure dewpoint. By restricting the flow at the outlet of the integral bypass with an orifice, the sensor monitors the dewpoint at process pressure. The flow rate of the bleed-off air to the atmosphere at 7-8 bar (100 psig), is approximately 70 cc/min (28 L/h / 1.0 SCFH).
Low-pressure, closed-loop drying systems, which are very common with hopper dryers in the plastics industry, operate at very low pressures of a few inches of water. The air passing through the DewPro MMY30 bypass line is fed back to the main stream after a pressure drop in the main line. In this configuration, the DewPro MMY30 bypass has no flow restriction at either the inlet or the outlet.The outlet is equipped with a 1/4”...
Method IV - Bypass Installation In some cases there may not be enough room to install the DewPro MMY30 directly to the process pipe. The tube connection at the inlet enables mounting the DewPro MMY30 at a remote location. Any of the functions described for Methods I-III can be selected.

Proper handling procedures must be observed during the removal, installation, or other handling of internal circuit boards or devices. Note: If the DewPro MMY30 is equipped with an optional display/user interface, refer to Chapter 4. System Configuration 3.2.1 Various Power Supplies Figure 10 below illustrates various power supplies and displays for use with the DewPro MMY30.
Designing the Loop When selecting a power supply, please note that the voltage at the +/- terminal of the DewPro MMY30 should not fall below 12 VDC. The maximum loop resistance is an important parameter for selection of the supply voltage. Each device connected to the loop causes a voltage drop.
IMPORTANT: For use of the DewPro MMY30 in environments with severe electrical noise, refer to the specifications in Chapter 6. A shielded, two-wire cable (as shown in Figure 12 below) can be used to interconnect the DewPro MMY30 with the power source.
To meet EMI/RFI immunity requirements, a two-wire shielded cable with a common foil shield layer must be used to power the MMY30. Remove 3” of the cable insulation and pull back the foil so that it is clamped in the metal cable gland. The ground wire must be connected to the internal DewPro MMY30 grounding screw. ®...
4.1.1 DewPro MMY30 with Display Assembly Unscrew and remove the protective lid from the top of the DewPro MMY30 (as shown in Figure 14 above), exposing the display module below. The buttons V, H, + and – are now accessible.
Figure 15: The MMY30 Optional Display The display of the DewPro MMY30 continuously shows the current matrix location using the vertical (V) and horizontal (H) coordinates to designate the row and column, respectively. The bar graph represents the output current in an analog fashion (see Figure 15 above).

Optional Display/User Interface (Option G or H) Matrix Programming “V” “H” Navigating through the matrix is accomplished by using the buttons to move to another row or column, as shown in the example below. At any location where a value may be changed by the user, the desired value is programmed using the “+”...
Note: When switching to ppm , the display may indicate an error “3” if the dewpoint reading is above –20°C. (e.g., the DewPro MMY30 is exposed to ambient air.) 4.5.1.3 Loop at Fault VH 07 If any fault malfunction occurs, the loop can be set to either “–10%”...

Optional Display/User Interface (Option G or H) 4.5.2 Special Calibration 4.5.2.1 Adjusting the Pressure Constant VH 30 The process pressure constant is entered in bar (absolute), which is used to calculate ppm . The moisture unit ppm is the ratio of water vapor pressure to the total process pressure and is, therefore, independent of the process pressure.

If the dewpoint is below –90°C (–130°F), the current will go below 4 mA and then to 22 mA as the fault current. Expose the DewPro MMY30 to ambient air for several minutes. If the error remains, the cause may be a defective sensor assembly or an electronics malfunction.
