Series DM-2000 Differential Pressure Transmitter
Specications - Installation and Operating Instructions
Bulletin E-43-DM
The Dwyer Series DM-2000 Differential Pressure Transmitter senses the pressure
of air and compatible gases and sends a standard 4-20 mA output signal. The DM-
2000 housing is specically designed to mount in the same diameter cutout as a
standard Magnehelic® differential gage. A wide range of models are available factory
calibrated to specic ranges.
Pressure connections are inherent to the glass lled plastic molded housing making
installation quick and easy. Digital push-button zero simplies calibration over typical
turn-potentiometers. Single push button allows eld selection of 5 engineering units
(LCD models only). An optional 3.5 digit LCD shows process and engineering.

INSTALLATION
1. Location
Select a clean, dry mounting location free from excess vibration where the
temperature will remain between 20 and 120˚F (-6.7 and 48.9˚C). Distance from the
receiver is limited only by total loop resistance. See Electrical Connections on next
page. The tubing supplying pressure to the instrument can be practically any length
required, but long lengths will increase response time slightly.
2. Position
A vertical position required. That is the position in which all standard models are
spanned and zeroed at the factory.
Pressure Connections
Two integral tubing connections are provided on the side of the gage. They are sized
to t 1/8˝ (3.12 mm) I.D. tubing. Be sure the pressure rating of the tubing exceeds that
of the operating ranges.
Note: The tubing connections on the back of the gage are not to be used as process
connections.
3. Mounting
Panel - Provide a 4-9/16˝ diameter opening in panel. Insert gage and secure in place
with provided screws and adapters.
Surface - Provide three 3/16˝ diameter holes in panel on a 4-1/8˝ diameter bolt circle.
Cut opening for terminal block as shown in diagram to right.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
CAUTION: Do not exceed specied supply voltage ratings. Permanent damage not
covered by warranty will result. This unit is not designed for 120 or 240 volts AC line
operation.
Electrical connections are made to the terminal block located in back of the transmitter.
Terminals are marked + and - (see Fig. B below).
Wire Length
The maximum length of wire connecting transmitter and receiver is a function of wire
size and receiver resistance. Wiring should not contribute more than 10% of the
receiver resistance to total loop resistance. For extremely long runs (over 1000 feet),
choose receivers with higher resistance to minimize size and cost of connecting leads.
Where wiring length is under 100 feet, hook-up wire as small as 22 AWG can be used.
2-Wire Operation
An external power supply delivering 10-35 VDC with minimum current capability of
40 mA DC (per transmitter) must be used to power the control loop. See Fig. C for
connection of the power supply, transmitter and receiver. The range of appropriate
receiver load resistance (RL) for the DC power supply voltage available is expressed
by the formula and graph in Fig. D. Shielded two wire cable is recommended for
control loop wiring. If grounding is required, use the negative side of the control loop
after the receiver.
USER CALIBRATION
The transmitter may be user calibrated with two buttons on the front. The standard
models have buttons labeled “ZERO” and “SPAN”. LCD models have buttons labeled
“ZERO” and “UNITS”. The “UNITS” button on the LCD models has 2 functions. If
pushed for less than 2 seconds and released the pressure units that are displayed on
the LCD will change when the button is released. If pushed and held for 4 - 5 seconds
the “UNITS” button serves the same function as the “SPAN” button on the standard
models.
To calibrate the transmitter you will need three pieces of equipment. You will need
a calibrated pressure source capable of generating a stable pressure value for
the maximum range of the unit under test, an instrument capable of validating the
calibration pressure, and an ampmeter, capable of measuring mA, to measure the
current output from the unit under test. The transmitter is calibrated using the following
procedure.
Preparation – Connect the ampmeter and power supply, being careful to observe
polarities. The transmitter must be calibrated in a vertical position.
Performing ZERO Calibration, SPAN Calibration or Restore Factory
Calibration Coefcients:
1. Press both the ZERO and UNITS/SPAN buttons simultaneously for 6 or more
seconds. Release both buttons. The units indicator on the LCD should blink on
and off. This indicates the gage is ready for calibration or restoration of
coefcients. The units indicator blinks for approximately 10 minutes, then stops
blinking.
2. a) ZERO calibrate the gage by applying no pressure to the gage and
then pressing the ZERO button for 3 seconds.
b) SPAN calibrate the gage by applying full-scale pressure to the gage and
then pressing the UNITS/SPAN button for 3 seconds.
c.) Restore the gage’s factory calibration coefcient by pressing both the ZERO
and UNITS/SPAN buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds.
MAINTENANCE
Upon nal installation of the Series DM2000 Differential Pressure Transmitter and
the companion receiver no routine maintenance is required. The Series DM2000
Transmitter is not eld serviceable and should be returned, freight prepaid, to the
factory if repair is required. Please enclose a description of the problems encountered
plus any available application information.
