8-to-50 Vdc source to produce the 4-to-20 mA output signal. As much as 800 ohms dropping resistance may be used in the power leads of the TX92A when the unit is energized from a 24 Vdc source because of the small compliance voltage needed by the unit.
4-mA output temperature within +/- 25% for Fahrenheit and +/- 10% for Celsius of nominal span (refer to Section 3.0, Calibrating the Transmitter, for more details). Models TX92A-*-L are transmitters with the 4-20mA output linearized to temperature.
4-20mA output linearized to temperature **Factory Scaling Option: **Factory Scaling available for additional charge. Consult factory. To order additional transmitters, specify TX92A followed by the model number. For example: TX92A-2 = RTD Transmitter with a temperature range of -0 to 200°F.
2.0 CONNECTING POWER AND SIGNAL INPUTS Verify that the transmitter is connected for the correct power voltage rating. Connect the power supply to pin 4 and the resistance load to pin 5. Connect the sensor to pins 1, 2 and 3. The transmitter has no power on switch, so it will be in operation as soon as you apply power.
CALIBRATING THE TRANSMITTER Calibration Setup: Insert the reference RTD. Connect RTD simulator. Connect DMM monitor and power supply. (4–20 mA) SPAN MONITOR (–) DC SUPPLY 24 VDC 250 Ohms (–) RESISTANCE SOURCE (–) INPUT ZERO WIRE COPPER WIRE Figure 3-1. Calibration Setup (Resistance Source) To calibrate the transmitter, follow these steps (refer to Figure 3-1): Locate the model number in Table 3-1 or 3-2 and set the resistance source to the LO-IN value.
