Setting Range Values Using Local Zero and Span

 

 

 

 

 

 

Adjustments, Continued

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step

 

 

 

Action

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4

Turn ON transmitter power and let it warm up for a few minutes.

 

 

 

 

 

Using an accurate pressure source, apply desired zero equivalent

 

 

 

 

 

pressure to transmitter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ATTENTION

For differential pressure transmitters, apply pressure

 

 

 

 

 

to the high pressure head for positive range values or vent both

 

 

 

 

 

heads to atmosphere for zero. If zero is to equal a negative value,

 

 

 

 

 

apply the equivalent pressure to the low pressure head. For

 

 

 

 

 

example, if zero is to equal –10 inH2O, you would apply 10 inH2O to

 

 

 

 

 

the low pressure head and vent the high pressure head for the zero

 

 

 

 

 

adjustment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5

Check that milliammeter reading is 4 mA.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If reading …

Then…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

is less or greater than 4 mA

go to Step 6.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

is correct

 

go to Step 7.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ATTENTION

If you have the smart meter with local zero and

 

 

 

 

 

span adjustment option, you may substitute the smart meter

 

 

 

 

 

readings for the milliammeter readings. For example, with zero input

 

 

 

 

 

pressure applied assume that the meter reads 4 inH2O instead of 0

 

 

 

 

 

inH2O. In this case, the meter reading is greater than 0 (or 4 mA).

a. Press and hold ZERO button on local zero and span assembly or

 

 

 

 

 

 

smart meter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ATTENTION

The smart meter readings revert to the default unit of

 

 

 

 

 

percent (%) during this operation. If the error code Er0 appears on

 

 

 

 

 

the display, you are working with a model STD110 transmitter that

 

 

 

 

 

does not support the local zero and span adjustments.

 

 

 

 

 

b. Press Decrease ￿ button once to complete this function.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ATTENTION

The smart meter display goes blank for a 1/2

 

 

 

 

 

second and then returns reading 0%.

 

 

 

 

 

c. Check that milliammeter reading equals 4 mA and release ZERO

 

 

 

 

 

 

button.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ATTENTION

If milliammeter reading doesn’t change, be sure you

 

 

 

 

 

are not working with a model STD110 transmitter that ignores local

 

 

 

 

 

adjustments. The smart meter readings return to the set engineering

 

 

 

 

 

units after you release the ZERO button.
