Environmental Protection |
The transmitter’s enclosure has the weatherproof, dust-tight, and water-tight rating of IP66/67 as defined by IEC 60529, and provides the environmental and corrosion resistant protection rating of NEMA Type 4X. |
Approximate Mass |
Direct Connect AP or GP, Aluminum Housing: 1.4 kg (3.1 lb); Biplanar or Traditional DP Structure, Aluminum, without Process Connectors: 3.5 kg (7.8 lb); Biplanar or Traditional DP Structure, Aluminum, with Process Connectors: 4.2 kg (9.2 lb); Optional Display add 0.2 kg (.4 lb); 316 ss Housing: Add 1.1 kg (2.4 lb) |
Span and Range Limits |
For Specific Models see "Span and Range Limits" in Documents Section below. |
Output Signal |
For HART transmitters, 4 to 20 mA dc square root (for DP only) or 4 to 20 mA dc linear with digital HART communication. The output is software-selectable and remotely configurable from the HART Communicator, and locally configurable with the pushbuttons on the optional display. For FOUNDATION Fieldbus transmitters, square root (for DP only) or linear. The digital output is software-selectable and remotely configurable from a FOUNDATION Fieldbus host computer or a console equipped with a FOUNDATION Fieldbus Interface Module. It is also locally configurable with the pushbuttons on the optional display. |
Minimum Allowable Absolute Pressure vs. Process Temperature |
With silicone fill fluid: up to 121°C (250°F) at full vacuum; With inert fill fluid: refer to the graph |
Supply Voltage for Hart Transmitters |
See Documents Section for 4 to 20 mA Ouptput Supply Voltage vs. Output Load |
FOUNDATION Fieldbus Transmitters |
The power supply (a FOUNDATION Fieldbus Power Supply Module) must be capable of providing at least 17 mA for each transmitter connected. Minimum Supply Voltage 9 Vdc, Recommended Supply Voltage: 24 Vdc; Maximum Supply Voltage32 Vdc. |
Adjustable Damping |
Hart (-T) Transmitters: Damping is user-selectable to values of 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 seconds. FOUNDATION Fieldbus (-F) Transmitters: Damping is user-selectable to values of 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 seconds. |
