Description and Operation

MAS2600 Tank Contents Transmitter

The MAS2600 is a 2-wire 4-20 mA level transmitter consisting of a transducer and an amplifier interconnected by a 6-core vented cable.

Transducer:

The transducer is a pressure sensitive silicon micro strain gauge sensor mounted in a glass to metal seal. The sensor is protected by an isolation diaphragm, electron beam welded to the transducer housing, with an oil filling between the sensor and the diaphragm. Pressure changes on the front of the diaphragm will bring a resistance change in the Wheatstone bridge of the transducer. This change in the Wheatstone bridge will be transmitted to the amplifier as a change in the electrical signal.

The transducer is fully welded, housed in titanium with a titanium diaphragm.

All transducer types are submersible (IP68).

The transducer is available in three versions:

Gauge version.

Absolute version.

High temperature gauge version.

As optional the transducer is available with a built-in Pt100 temperature sensor.

Amplifier:

The amplifier is available in the following options:

Programmable version: Calibration is made by dip switches and potentiometers.

Differential version: For measuring of both pressure and vacuum measuring.

The amplifier is housed in a sea water resistant polyester casing (IP56).

Application

The MAS2600 has been developed for level measuring in ballast, oil, service and fresh water tanks as well as tanks containing media which are not hostile to titanium.

Intrinsically Safe in Hazardous Areas The MAS2600 is DEMKO approved for use with standard transmitter zener barriers or Ex isolation amplifiers and is Ex ia IIC T4 compliant in accordance with IEC 60079- 0:2007 and IEC 60079-11:2006.
