1.2.Overview of Transmitter
The Autrol® APT 3200 Smart Pressure Transmitter is a microprocessor based
“smart” pressure transmitter. It uses a piezoelectric pickup optimized &
accurately characterized to compensate for ambient temperature effecs with a
patented temperature compensation algorithm that ensures for high precision
& long term stablilty in gauge and absolute pressure measurements over a
wide range of operating conditions. APT3200 is a two wire loop power
transmitter and has a standard 4/20mA output scaled for desired output
pressure range. In addition it also offers digital HART® (digital signal
superimposed over the analog output) communication that allows transmitting
additional digital parameters/diagnostic information for advanced control
systems like DCS, PLC, SCADA, RTU, AMS etc. All APT series transmiters
have an explosion proof rated housing (standard cast aluminum–copper free
epoxy coated, or optional SUS316) protected for outdoor NEMA 4X/IP 67 and
classified hazardous areas Class I, II, III / Division 1 or 2 use. When installaing
in hazardous areas user must follow relevant electrical codes and wiring
practices per prevailing electrical standards.
This transmitter can be configured for its included smart functions (re-ranging,
damping, engineering mode, square root-linear transfer functions etc. ) using
local push buttons or remotely via HART® commmunication through a HART®
MASTER Host (AMS,PDM, PKS etc) , a HHT (HART® Hand-Held Terminal
using DDL or DOF technology) or any HART® enabled PC Configurator
supporting DDL technology. This allows critical variables to be changed,
configured and tested locally or remotely by users. Note: for HART®
Communication a minimum 250 Ohm loop resistance is mandatory.
1.3.Software Compatbility
Autrol® Smart Pressure Transmitters are shipped from the factory with the
most up to date firmware. However, as product developments and new
features are released a firmware update becomes necessary to incorporate
these new changes. Transmitters with older firmware may restrict certain
functions when communicating with local pusgbuttons and/or an external
HHT(Model 275 /375 or 465 HART® Communicator).

2.1.Unpacking
When moving the transmitter to the installation site transfer it in its original
packaging. Only unpack the transmitter on site of installation to avoid damage
during transit.
2.2.Models and Specifications Check
The model name and specifications are indicated on the top nameplate fixed
to the transmitters. Please check your specification and model supplied for
your installation. Please ensure LRL (Lower Range Value) / URL (Upper
Range Value), min/max span specifications and MWP (Max. Working Pressure)
of sensor range codes are in line with your application requirements.
2.3.Storage
The following precautions must be observed when storing the instrument,
especially for long periods.
(1)Select a storage area that meets the following conditions:
a)It is not directly exposed to rain, water, snow or sun light.
b)It is exposed to minimum vibration and shock.
c)If possible, it is advisable to store at normal temperature and
humidity (approx. 70°F, 65% RH). However, it can also be
stored under ambient temperature and relative humidity within
the following published ranges.
Ambient Temperature:-40 ~ 85°C (without LCD) * or-
30 ~ 80°C (with module)*
* General use only. For explosion proof versions follow
product certification reqmts.
Relative Humidity: 5% ~ 98% RH (at 40°C)
(2)When storing the transmitter, repack with original (or similar)
packaging that was shipped from the factory.
(3)If storing a transmitter that has already been used, thoroughly clean
all wetted parts including diaphragm seals (if installed), process
connections/manifolds in contact with process fluid. In addition, make
sure before storing the transmitter that remote seal (if supplied)
assemblies are securely mounted.
2.4.Selecting a Suitable Location for Installation
The transmitter is designed to withstand severe environmental conditions.
However, to ensure stable and accurate operation for extended years, the
following precautions must be observed when selecting an installation location.
(1)Ambient Temperature:
Avoid locations subject to wide temperature variations or a significant
temperature gradient. If the location is exposed to radiant heat from
plant equipment, provide adequate insulation or ventilation.
(2)Ambient Atmosphere
Avoid installing the transmitter in a corrosive atmosphere. If the
transmitter must be installed in a corrosive atmosphere, there must be
adequate ventilation as well as preventive measures to minimize
intrusion or stagnation of rainwater or condensation build up through
its electrical conduits. Moreover, there should be appropriate
precautions taken to prevent corrosion build up due to condensation or
moisture collected within conduits and terminal boxes over extended

APT3200
8
Operation Manual:110210-3200-OM01v7x AUTROL® Series
periods of operation. Inspect periodically as required.
(3) Shock and Vibration:
Select an installation site subject to minimum shock and vibration.
Although the transmitter is designed to be relatively resistant to shock
and vibration, we highly recommend following good engineering
practices.
(4) Installation of Explosion Proof rated Transmitters
Explosionproof rated transmitters must be installed in hazardous areas
according to the area classification for which they are certified.
(5) Accessibility
Select location that provides easy access formaintenance & calibration.
(6) Selecting Power supply
Ensure proper supply voltages are calculated per maximum available
load and minimum required voltage requirements across supply input
of a two wire transmitter to avoid “loop loading” issues.
(7) Grounding
Select proper grounding techniques to avoid ground loops and
external noise influences.
2.5.Performing Sensor Zero Trim after Installation
(1) Sensor Zero Trim should be done immediately after transmitter is
installed because zero point can shift due to mounting status of the
sensor pick up. This can be done using local push buttons provided
on top of transmitter housing (underneath the SS nameplate)
(2) For Sensor Zero Trim, make input pressure of transmitter zero prior to
initiating zero trim calibration. Any Sensor Trim done in field must be
carried out after installation is finalized and with transmitter position
fixed. Also, if applying external pressure source (recommended for
absolute models only) ensure the display is sufficiently stabilized
(after approximately 10 to 15 seconds) before initiating any Trim
function.
(3) There are two recommendations for making input pressure “zero”.
One is to apply a “zero” pressure source (mandatory for absolute
pressure models). The second option is to open equalizing valve of
manifolds and venting to atmospheric pressure (allowed only for
Gauge type models).
(4) Sensor Zero Trim can be performed using an external HHC (Hand
held calibrator), PC or PDA configurator, and/or using Zero/Span local
push buttons provided on the transmitter.
(5) When using local push buttons please refer to Chapter 3.7 of this
manual for detailed instructions. If using an external HHT or HART®
PC configurator please refer to the user manuals supplied by the third
party supplier.
2.6.Pressure Connection
▲ Warning
◈Instrument installed in the process is under presure. Never loosen or tighten the
flange bolts as it may cause leakage of process fluid.
◈If the process fluid may be toxic or otherwise harmful, take approriate care to
avoid contactand/or exposure to direct vapors even after dismounting the
instrument from process line for maintenance.

APT
APT3200
APT3200
APT3200
APT3200
Standard Process connection is ½” NPT. Optional ¼”NPT Process connection
is available with use of adapters (O option) if ordered with the transmitter.
The following precautions must be observed in order to safely operate the
transmitter under pressure.
(1)Never apply a pressure higher than the maximum working pressure
specified on the nameplate.
(2)Use adequate seals for leak tight process connections and use only
quality and standardized parts.
(3)Regularly inspect for signs of leakage and apply corrective actions
when necessary.
2.7.Waterproofing of Cable Conduit Connections
Apply a non-hardening sealant (viz. silicone or Teflon tape, etc.) to the threads
to water proof the cable conduit entry connections.
2.8.Restrictions on Use of Radio Transceivers
▲ Warning
◈Although the transmitter has been designed to resist high frequency electrical
noise, if a radio transceiver is used near the transmitter or its external wiring, the
transmitter may be affected by high frequency noise pickup. To test for such
effects, bring the transceiver in use slowly from a distance of several meters from
the transmitter, and observe the measurement loop for noise effects. Thereafter,
always use the transceiver outside the area affected by noise.
2.9.Insulation Resistance Test and Dielectric
Strangth Test
All APT series transmitters are subjected to insulation resistance and dielectric
strength tests (at the factory) prior to shipment. Normally these tests are not
required to be duplicated in field. However, if required, observe the following
precautions in the field test procedures.
(1)Do not perform such tests more frequently than is absolutely
necessary. Even test voltages that do not cause visible damage to the
insulation may degrade the insulation and reduce safety margins.
(2)Never apply a voltage exceeding 500 Vdc (100 Vdc with an internal
lightning protector--LP option) for insulation resistance test, or a
voltage exceeding 500V AC (100V AC with an internal lightning
protector option) for dielectric strength tests.
(3)Before conducting these tests, disconnect all power and signal lines
from the transmitter terminals. Follow procedures outlined below to
initiate these tests.
I. Insulation Resistance test
a)Short the (+) and (-) SUPPLY terminals inside the transmitter
terminal box.
b)Turn OFF the insulation tester. Then connect the insulation
tester positive (+) lead wire to the shorted SUPPLY terminals
on the transmitter and the negative (-) lead wire of tester to
the ground terminal on transmitter.

APT3200
10
Operation Manual:110210-3200-OM01v7x AUTROL® Series
c) Turn ON the insulation tester power and measure the
insulation resistance. The voltage should be applied for a
short duration sufficient enough only to verify that insulation
resistance measured is at least 20 MΩ.
d)After completing the test and being very careful not to touch
exposed conductors disconnect the insulation tester and
connect a 100kW resistor between the grounding terminal and
the short-circuiting SUPPLY terminals. Leave this resistor
connected for at least three seconds to discharge any static
potential. Do not touch the terminal while it is discharging.
II. Dielectric Strength Test
a)Short-circuit the (+) and (-) SUPPLY terminals marked in
the terminal box.
b)Turn OFF the dielectric strength tester. Then connect the
tester between the shorted SUPPLY terminal and the
ground terminal of transmitter.
c) Be sure to connect the grounding lead of the dielectric
strength tester to the ground terminal.
d)Set the current limit on the dielectric strength tester to
10mA, then turn ON the power and gradually increase the
tester voltage from '0' to the specified voltage. When the
specified voltage is reached, hold it for one minute.After
completing this test, slowly decrease the voltage to avoid
any voltage surges.

◈Do not remove the transmitter covers in hazardous locations when the circuit is
live.
◈Transmitter covers must be fully engaged to meet explosionproof approval
requirements.
3.4.Fail Mode Alarm
AUTROL® Smart Pressure Transmitter automatically performs real time self-
diagnostic routines and displays any error codes on its local LCD (Liquid
Crystal Display) (M1 option if ordered) that can be used for troubleshooting. In
addition to this, the self-diagnostic routines are also designed to drive
transmitter current output outside of the normal saturation values in case a
fault mode is detected. The transmitter will drive its current 4/20mA output low
(down) or high (up) based on the position of the failure mode alarm jumper(or
DIP switch) configuredin line with NAMUR requirements. See Table 3.1 for
available Current Output values.

Alarm on Current output is automatically disabled; however, error indication is
still available via digital HART® communication as a Status Flag.
Fail Mode Selection (Fail High/UP or Low/DOWN) can be configured using the
appropriate jumper switch provided on the LCD Module or DIP switches
included on the Main CPU Module. For units provided with a LCD module one
can select desired fail safe mode directly from the jumper switch included in
the front display and this setting overrides the DIP settings on the back-end
Main CPU module. However, in the case of blind units please select your
required DIP switch settings from the DIP switch labeled (2) marked on the
Main CPU board. Recommended jumper & DIP settings are listed in Table 3-2
below for ready reference. To move jumper, pull out, then move to new
location and push in.

3.5.EEProm-Write Enable/Disable Mode Switch
APT 3200 includes an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read
Only Memory) that allows saving and restoring various configuration data
within the transmitter on power failure. To lock configuration and protect
tchanges to stored configurationdata one can use a HHC and/or external
HART® enabled PC device to enable a software lock feature under Status
menu. Optionally, for security lock on hardware side there is a Write-Protect
Mode DIP Switch(1)on the Main CPU Module placed right next to the Fail Safe
Mode switch (2). If you push this DIP switch to UP you can lock out users from
making any changes to configuration data already saved in the EEPROM
using push buttons and/or remote HHT. Alternatively, when you push DIP
Switch(1) to DOWN you can allow changes made to configuration data in
EEPROM. Default state from factory (including with no jumper installed) is EN
(enable configuration changes).

3.5.1.Security
To quickly summarize there are three options available to implement
configuration security lock out within theAPT 3200. These include:
(1)DIP settings on CPU Board
(2)Software enable/disable on Write function using HHT or
HART® PC.
(3)Physically removing Zero and Span Magnetic Push Buttons
from Transmitter thereby restricting local access to pushbutton
menus. This option will still allow changes via a remote HHT or
HART enabled configurator.
3.5.2.Zero and Span Magnetic Push Buttons
[Figure 3.5.2 Transmitter Zero/Span configuration Buttons]
To access pushbuttons please remove top nameplate to expose the
magnetic style push buttons labeled zero/span. To disable please
unscrew center retaining screw and remove these push buttons as a
module. As these are magnetic style, this will not compromise the
explosion proof integrity of housing.Access to push buttons is allowed
in a hazardous area without disconnecting power to the transmitter.
3.6.Configuration of Alarm and Security Jumper
Procedures
To change Jumper/DIP switch position in field:
1) If transmitter is already wired and installed, cut off power.
2) Open the housing front cover. Warning: In hazardous areas
DO NOT open the covers of Transmitter when power is
energized as this can create a potential dangerous situation.
Always kill power
and
De-energize the transmitter prior to opening front OR back
covers in a hazardous location.
