Features and Benefits
Function
The transmitter consists of a plastic sensor-housing and a membrane of silicon LSR. The differential pressure affects the membrane which is connected to the sensor element. The element is manufactured with state-of-the art technology with a ceramic beam onto which thick-film resistors have been applied. The pressure on the membrane causes a movement which is transferred to the ceramic beam. Flexing of the beam gives changes in resistance. The changes in resistance are transmitted by means of built-in electronics to an analogue output signal. The measuring element gives a rapid response and a high level of accuracy. The properties of the ceramic element ensure that the transmitter has excellent long-term stability.
Sensor Housing
The sensor housing is made of transparent plastic. The cable input is on the left hand side with cable gland. The cover is closed by a single screw and can easily be detached from the hinges when mounting.
Setting the Working Range
The transmitter has three different working ranges depending on the model. The working ranges are set via two dip switches in the lower left corner of the circuit board according to the table shown below. The supply voltage must be disconnected. You can also change the zero point of the pressure measurement by pressing the button above the dip switches.
Mounting
The sensor should be mounted vertically using screws in the mounting holes on the back edge. There are also two mounting holes on the upper side of the sensor housing.
Connection Set
A connection set consisting of tubing and pressure outlets can be supplied as accessory to DPT.
