3.1Considerations for ST 3000 Transmitter, Continued
Pressure ratings | Table 6 lists maximum working pressure for a given transmitter Upper |
| Range Limit (URL). |
| The maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) is the pressure |
| used for the approval body safety calculations. |

Note: Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP) may vary with materials of construction and process temperature. For more specific information, refer to the appropriate Specification and Model Selection Guide or transmitter nameplate
Note: To convert bar values to kilopascals (kPa), multiply by 100. For example, 3.5 bar equals 350 kPa.
