Safety Summary
SPECIFIC
WARNINGS Consider the corrosive properties of the measured substance when
selecting piping materials. Degradation of the piping can upset the
process. Some process upsets can injure personnel and damage
equipment. (p. 3-6)
When pressurizing, avoid overloading and pressure hammer. Refer
to the introduction section for the pressure limits of the cell. Exceed-
ing this pressure could result in damage to the cell and cause seri-
ous injury to personnel. (p. 3-6)
Explosionproof/dust-ignitionproof installations and intrinsically safe
installations in Class II or Class III hazardous locations require that
the assembly be kept tight while circuits are live unless the location
is known to be nonhazardous at the time. (p. 4-1, 7-1, 8-1)
System maintenance must be performed only by qualified personnel
and only after securing the equipment controlled by the circuit.
Altering or removing components from an active circuit may upset
the controlled process leading to personnel injury and equipment
damage. (p. 7-1)
Repairs must be performed only by qualified personnel and only
after securing the equipment controlled by the circuit. Altering or
removing components from an active circuit may upset the con-
trolled process leading to personnel injury and equipment damage.
(p. 8-1)
The outputs of smart devices change to a fixed value during initial-
ization and detected failure conditions. These values must be
selected by the user to insure safe operation. (p. 5-3)
SPECIFIC
CAUTIONS Clean the diaphragms with a soft rag and appropriate solvent. The
use of metal brushes, blades, or other tools will damage the dia-
phragms. (p. 7-3)
Do not attempt to remove the two screws that secure the cell and
characterization board assembly to the tank flange assembly. The
capillary is welded into place. Attempting to remove the cell and
characterization board assembly from the tank flange assembly
could damage the weld. (p. 7-3, 8-4)

OVERVIEW
WBPEEUI110505A0 1 - 1
SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW
The Type PTSDL Platinum Standard Smart Level Transmitter
accurately measures the level of corrosive and noncorrosive
fluids. The transmitter can be configured to provide a polled
digital process variable signal (digital field bus mode) or a four
to 20-milliampere process variable signal (analog mode).
It is important for safety and operating reasons to read and
understand this instruction. Until doing so, do not complete
any tasks or procedures related to installation, calibration,
operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, or repair.
INTENDED USER
The information in this publication is a guide for technical per-
sonnel responsible for the installation, calibration, operation,
maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of the Type PTSDL
Platinum Standard Smart Level Transmitter.
EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION
The Type PTSDL level transmitter consists of a cell and char-
acterization board assembly, and an electronics assembly. The
electronics package uses the latest microprocessor technology,
allowing calibration, operation, and troubleshooting from a
local or remote location.
The Type STT Smart Transmitter Terminal communicates with
the transmitter to configure, calibrate, check transmitter sta-
tus, and perform other interactions with the transmitter. The
EZ CAL™option allows calibration validation without the
Type STT terminal. An optional LCD (liquid crystal display)
shows output in percent and user-defined secondary engineer-
ing units, input in primary engineering units, cell tempera-
ture, and the transmitter ID tag. An analog meter is also
available for local output indication for those applications
where the transmitter operates at temperature extremes (refer
to Table 1-3 for the temperature limits).
FEATURES
Accurate, Stable, and Reproducible Measurements. Differ-
ential reluctance cell technology provides precise, stable, and
reproducible level measurements.
Easy Zero and Span Validation. Nonintrusive EZ CAL
option does not violate transmitter case. Allows zero and span

INTRODUCTION
FEATURES

validation to previously defined pressure values without using
Type STT terminal. May be supplied at delivery or added in the
field, and can be used on any Type PTSDL level transmitter
(except those with stainless steel housings).
Enhanced Remote Communications. Communicates with
Type STT terminal. Hand-held communication device uses
high frequency AC signaling method known as FSK (frequency
shift keying). Functions in high noise environments found in
many factories. Communicates with transmitter anywhere
there is access to signal wires within 1.6 kilometers (1.0 mile)
of transmitter. Parallel connection does not disrupt isolated
analog four to 20-milliampere process variable signal. Termi-
nal is also available in French and Spanish language versions.
Types STT04 terminals and later have the ability to communi-
cate with HART®devices.
Optional Two-Line, Seven Character Liquid Crystal
Display. Displays output in percent and user-defined second-
ary engineering units, input in primary engineering units, cell
temperature, and transmitter ID tag. Analog meter is also
available for those applications where transmitter operates
outside temperature limits of LCD. Both are easily installed for
convenient local indication.
Advanced Electronics Insures Reliability. Amplifier assem-
bly uses surface mount technology, designed to exceed 50
years MTBF (mean time between failure).
Dual Cover Housing. Immune to radio frequency interference.
Reduced Installation and Service Costs. Remote communi-
cations, modular plug-in electronics, and long-term stability
reduce installation and service time.
Direct Replacement of Existing Analog Two-Wire
Transmitters. Transmitters used in the analog mode replace
most four to 20-milliampere output pressure transmitters that
operate over a two-wire system.
Digital Field Bus Compatibility. When used as a high speed
digital communicating device, analog signal processing does
not occur. This results in an overall accuracy that is improved
by more than three times compared to a traditional analog sys-
tem. Such applications are INFI 90®OPEN supported.
Transmitter Diagnostics. Performs a series of self-checks,
monitoring such areas as configuration integrity and input cir-
cuitry. Two user-defined cell temperature alarms are available.
These diagnostics reduce troubleshooting and service time.
Agency Certifications. Complies with FM (Factory Mutual)
and CSA (Canadian Standards Association) certifications as
intrinsically safe, explosionproof, and nonincendive. Selected

Ambient temperature
effect on zero and span These values are for transmitters with zero based spans, silicone oil fill, and Has- telloy C-276 isolating diaphragms. The effects listed are for a variation of ±25°C
(±45°F) from a calibration done at a temperature between -30°and +80°C (-22°
and +176°F), as long as the variation does not take the transmitter out of the tem-
perature specifications listed under

NOTES:
1. The normal operating temperature range is that at which the transmitter meets all specifications. The extreme operating temperature
range is that at which the transmitter remains powered without damage.
2. All transmitters with fluorinated oil filled cells can only be operated in temperatures from -10°to +80°C (+14°to +176°F).
3. The transmitter can be operated with fluid temperatures up to 150°C (302°F).
4. The normal operating temperature range for the LCD is that at which the LCD remains functional. Exceeding those conditions may cause
the LCD to go blank. The transmitter remains functional to its operating limits. When the temperature returns to the acceptable range,
the display is restored; however, the life of the display may be reduced.
5. The minimum supply voltage necessary to support communications is 17 VDC.
6. Add 0.4 VDC to all minimum supply voltage values if using the lightning arrestor option.
7. Refer to Table 1-4 for the ambient condition limits for certified applications.
8. The transmitters are only certified for those agencies and classes indicated on the certification label. Do not install the transmitters in
locations for which they are not suited. Refer to Table 1-2, nomenclature position 12.
