FEATURES, INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE OF TRANSMITTERS
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. This manual is intended for users of Series 3400 smart pressure
transmitters, and Series 3500 smart differential pressure transmitters.
It contains the data and guidelines necessary to understand the operation
of the transmitters. It includes essential recommendations regarding
installation and use, as well as emergency procedures. The parameters and
information specied for transmitters identied here as Series 3400 and
3500 also apply to their explosion-proof versions, as well as all variations
differing by the type of the process terminals. Information on the transmitter
sizes and the method of installation apply to all versions of transmitters.
1.2. Technical data for the diaphragm seals and for the 3400 and 3500
transmitters are contained in Appendix III.
1.3. The transmitters comply with the requirements of EU directives as shown on
the plate and with the relevant Declaration of Conformity.
1.4. Additional data for Series 3400 and 3500 transmitters in intrinsic-safety Exi
versions in accordance with ATEX directive is contained in Appendix II and
in ame-proof Exd versions in Appendix I.
During installation and use of the transmitters in Exi or Exd version in
accordance with ATEX directive, reference should be made to Appendix II or
Appendix I respecively.
1.5. Additional data for Series 3400 and 3500 transmitters in intrinsic-safety Exi
versions in accordance with IECEx certicate is contained in Appendix II
and in ame-proof Exd versions in Appendix I.
During installation and use of the transmitters in Exi or Exd version in
accordance with IECEx certicate, reference should be made to Appendix I
or Appendix II.
2.0. The transmitters in all versions comply the requirements of the RoHS
Directive in accordance with EN 50581: 2012.
2. USER MATERIALS
Transmitters are delivered in single and/or multiple packs. Together with the
transmitter are delivered:
a) Product certicate
b) User’s Manual numbered: P-3400-3500
Items are available on http://www.dwyer-inst.com/
3. APPLICATIONS AND MAIN FEATURES
3.1. The Series 3400 smart pressure transmitters are designed to measure
gauge pressure, vacuum pressure and absolute pressure of gases, vapors
and liquids (including corrosive substances).
The Series 3500 differential pressure transmitters are used to measure liquid
levels in closed tanks with static pressure up to 25MPa, and differential pressure
across constrictions such as lters and orices.
3.2. The transmitters may be tted with a variety of process connectors, which
enables them to be used in a variety of conditions such as thick or highly
reactive media, high and low temperatures, etc.
3.3. 3400 and 3500 transmitters generate a 4-20 mA output signal and a
digital HART signal in a two-wire system (current loop). The use of smart
electronics enables regulation of the zero point, the measurement range,
damping, radical conversion characteristic and other functions using an KAP
communicator or from a PC using a HART/RS232 or HART/USB/ Converter
and “Raport 2” conguration software.
4. IDENTIFYING MARKS. ORDERING PROCEDURE
4.1. Every transmitter carries a rating plate containing at least the following
information: CE mark, manufacturer name, transmitter type, serial number,
pressure range, static pressure limit, output signal, power supply voltage.
Version types and the method of specifying the desired product are
described on the catalog page.
4.2. 3400 and 3500 transmitters in Exi version or Exd version have additional
markings as described in Appendix II or Appendix I.
4.3. The transmitters in all versions comply the requirements of the RoHS
Directive in accordance with EN 50581.
5. TECHNICAL DATA
5.1. 3400 and 3500 common parameters
5.1.1. 3400 and 3500 electrical parameters
Output signal 4-20 mA + HART rev.5.1
Communication with the transmitter to check its conguration parameters
is carried out via HART transmission protocol and signal of 4-20 mA.
For this purpose: KAP-03, KAP-03Ex communicator, HART/RS232
converter or HART/USB Converter or another converter, PC computer
and Raport 2 program can be used.
Resistance of power supply cables or resistors for communication, and
output resistance of the power supply can lead to voltage drops on the
way from the power supply to transmitter terminals. Therefore, the
maximum resistance permitted to be included in a series circuit with the
power supply should be calculated (Rmax load resistance). The total
resistance in the Ro current loop must be lower than this value to ensure
the minimum voltage on the terminals of the converter throughout
the current loop operating range (up to 22.5 mA with regard to HART
alarms and communication).
The resistance necessary for communication (HART) min 240 Ω
The maximum values of Rmax permissible load resistance for the supply
voltage of the power supply (Usup[V] DC) should be calculated based on
the following formula:
R
max[Ω] =
When the Ro total load resistance in the current loop is given, the
minimum supply voltage (Usup [V] DC) required for the use of the power
supply can be calculated likewise.
Usup[V] = Umin[V] + 0,0225 [A] x Ro[Ω]
where:
Rmax – maximum permissible load resistance for a specic voltage of
the power supply. Ro – total resistance in the current loop
Usup – supply voltage
The maximum length of the connection cable 1500 m (4921ft)
Output updating time 16…480 ms
(programmable)
150 ms – version Exd
Additional electronic damping 0...60 s
