The Dynisco PT46xDN is a full-featured, smart digital melt pressure transmitter, combining the reliability of
this industry-standard Dynisco pressure transducer with the added flexibility of DeviceNet digital
communications. The pressure sensing technology is the same as other Dynisco products, proven in such
rugged applications such as Polymer Melt Processing applications. The rugged construction is ideal for
harsh industrial environments.
The PT46xDN is easily integrated into any digital control system with a DeviceNet scanner. Continuous
pressure data is available in real-time at a minimum digital resolution of 0.01% of full scale (14 bits).
Monitoring and configuration of the PT46xDN is accomplished via the DeviceNet network using commercially-
available DeviceNet programming software.
The PT46xDN effectively combines the features of a melt pressure transducer, power regulator, alarm
monitor, and DeviceNet digital signal conditioner into a single, cost-effective package. Wiring the PT46xDN
transmitter is simple and fast by virtue of a standard DeviceNet 5 pin Micro-connector. The PT46xDN is
powered directly by the DeviceNet bus eliminating the need for a separate power supply. Multiple DeviceNet
Pressure Transmitters can be added to a network using a single DeviceNet Master scanner, making this
approach very attractive when an application calls for multiple pressure transmitters.

The mechanical system (filled assembly) consists of a lower diaphragm, a filled capillary tube, and an
upper diaphragm with a strain gage. The filled assembly transmits pressure from the process to the strain
gage diaphragm where it is converted to a digital signal. The filled assembly isolates the electronics from

5
GENERAL
the high process temperatures.
The lower diaphragm is the surface in contact with the media being measured. This diaphragm can be
made from a choice of materials. The standard material is heat-treated 15-5 stainless steel with DyMaxTM
coating. This has average corrosion and excellent abrasion resistance and is similar to 17-4 stainless
steel. Other materials are also available such as Hastelloy C-276 which has excellent corrosion resistant
properties (but is not good for abrasion). For other materials please consult the factory.
Behind the lower diaphragm is a capillary tube filled to the upper diaphragm. As the process pressure
deflects the lower diaphragm, the fill is displaced through the capillary tube to deflect the upper
diaphragm.
The upper diaphragm has a strain gage element in the configuration of a Wheatstone Bridge. The
deflection of the upper diaphragm causes a change in the resistance of the strain gage and hence a
change in the balance of the bridge. The amount of imbalance is directly proportional to the applied
pressure. This completes the translation of pressure applied to the lower diaphragm into a usable
electrical signal.

The low level output signal from the bridge is amplified via an instrumentation amp circuit. The amplified
signal then goes to the input of the analog-to-digital (A/D) converter.

The PT4xxDN utilizes the DeviceNet Predefined Master Slave Connection Set operating as a Group 2 Only
Server. The PT4xxDN supports baud rates of 125K, 250k, and 500k. The node address can be set to any
address between 0 and 63. The default baud rate and node address are 125k and 63, respectively.
Pressure, alarm, and status data are available via polled I/O messages. Alarm, Warning and Scaling
parameters are configured using Explicit messages.

When reading the PV, it is important to understand how the value is scaled by the Engineering Units
parameter and the Unity Gain Reference (UGR) parameter.
The PV can be scaled to a variety of engineering units, e.g. counts, psi, bar, etc., by setting the Data Units
parameter to the appropriate value as listed in Attribute #02 of Section 7.4.
When reporting the PV in any engineering unit other than counts, a decimal scale factor called the Unity
Gain Reference (UGR) is used to convert PV to “real world” pressure. By employing the UGR, the I/O data
is presented in a more efficient integer format rather than a floating point. The UGR is factory-set and
cannot be changed.
To compute the actual pressure, the control system must simply divide the PV by the UGR ( Pressure = PV /
UGR ).

The PT46XDN may contain a very small amount of mercury (Hg) 0.00322 in³ typically with a
6/18 configuration, as its transmission medium. If the diaphragm is damaged, mercury
mayescape. Never transport or store the PT46XDN without the protective cap. Remove the

The PT46XDN series of pressure transmitters can be used in media temperatures up to 400°C. If the
pressure transmitter is used in other applications, the safety and accident prevention regulations
specific to that application must be followed. Maximum ambient temperature for the electronics
housing is +85°C (185°F).
Higher temperature can result in damage and malfunction. Do not install the pressure transmitter in
places where this temperature is exceeded.

The PT contains a small amount of mercury (Hg) as its transmission medium. If the
diaphragm is damaged, mercury may escape.
Never transport or store the PT without the protective shell bolted in place. Remove the shell
shortly before installation.
If mercury is inhaled or swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.If mercury is inhaled or swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
If mercury is inhaled or swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.If mercury is inhaled or swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
If mercury is inhaled or swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
Mercury is hazardous waste and must be disposed of in accordance with applicable laws.

Do not remove the protective cap on the PT until ready to install.
Before mounting the PT, check mounting hole carefully. The PT must only be mounted in holes that
satisfy the requirements below. A hole that does not satisfy these requirements can damage the
Transmitter.
Insure the mounting hole is clear of any frozen polymer or debris and is machined to the proper
dimensions.
For threaded PT transmitters coat the threads with a high temperature anti-seize grease or a suitable
parting agent, this will help prevent the PT snout from sticking permanently in the mounting hole.
Install unit into the process connection. (Do NOT torque transmitter into the hole at this time!) Allow time
for the transmitter snout temperature to equalize to the process temperature. This will help eliminate
thread galling and ease removal later. There should be NO pressure applied at this time.
Always use a torque wrench applied to the designated hexagon collar or mounting bolts while screwing
the transmitter in and out. Do not apply the tool to the housing or housing/sensor connection.
After temperatures have equalized, apply proper torque as described in Section 3.20 of the Manual and
tighten transmitter into mounting hole.
After the correct torque has been applied units with flexible capillary require the electronics to be
mounted away from the process heat using mounting hardware, P/N 200941.
Make sure that the medium is in molten condition during transmitter removal. Removing the transmitter
while the medium is in solidified condition can damage the sensor diaphragm.
When removing the PT, carefully clean the diaphragm of the transmitter with a soft cloth while the
medium is still malleable.

20
INSTALLATION
Always remove the PT prior to cleaning the machine with abrasives or steel wire brushes. Also, do not
clean the PT with hard objects, such as a screwdriver, a wire brush, etc. this will possibly damage the
transmitter.
Before reinstalling the PT, ensure that the mounting hole is free from hardened plastic. A mounting hole
cleaning tool kit is available to aid in removing of the material. (Dynisco Part Number 200100 for ½-20,
200101 for M18 and 200102 for M10 ports.) A gauge plug to check the hole is included in this kit.
The most common causes of transducer damage are: installation in improperly machined or plugged
mounting holes and cold starts. The tip of the transducer consists of a stainless steel diaphragm that
must be protected from severe abrasives, dents and scores.
Burn Hazard!Burn Hazard!
Burn Hazard!Burn Hazard!
Burn Hazard! The PT must be removed with the melt in the molten condition. The PT can be very hot
when removed. WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES!
Careful attention should be paid to correctly machine the mounting port. Failure to use the
recommended mounting port may result in erroneous pressure measurement, difficult transducer
removal, premature sensor failure, process fluid leaks, and personnel hazard. In applications involving
high temperature operation and/or repeated thermal cycling a good high quality anti-seize compound
should be applied to the threaded surfaces.
