Installation and Wiring Guide

Installation Steps

  1. Confirm that the pipeline pressure is within the transmitter range, and close the valve to release pressure.
  2. Screw the transmitter process connection into the pipeline interface, using a suitable gasket.
  3. Tighten the process connection, with torque according to the manual requirements, to avoid over-tightening and damaging the threads.
  4. Ensure the transmitter housing is installed vertically or horizontally to avoid condensation accumulation.

Analog Wiring

The analog version uses two-wire wiring, with power and signal sharing two wires. Please follow the steps below:

  • Connect the positive power supply (+) to the transmitter "+" terminal.
  • Connect the transmitter "-" terminal to the positive analog input terminal of the receiving device (such as PLC).
  • Connect the negative analog input terminal of the receiving device to the negative power supply (-).
  • Check that the wiring is secure to avoid short circuits or reverse connection.

Parameter Settings and Commissioning

Zero and Span Adjustment

The PMP51B analog version is usually adjusted via local buttons or a HART communicator. If there is no display module, a HART475/375 communicator can be used. Before adjustment, ensure the pressure source is stable.

  • Zero adjustment: At zero pressure, perform "zero calibration" so that the output is 4mA.
  • Span adjustment: Apply full-scale pressure, perform "span calibration" so that the output is 20mA.
  • Damping setting: Set the damping time according to the working conditions, typical value 0.5-2 seconds.

Common Problems Troubleshooting

Symptom Possible Cause Solution
No output signal Power not connected or wiring error Check power supply voltage and polarity
Output always 4mA Pressure is zero or sensor failure Check pressure source and sensor
Output fluctuates greatly Damping setting too small or interference Increase damping, check shielding grounding

Maintenance and Precautions

  • Regularly check the process connection for leaks, recommended every six months.
  • Avoid the transmitter being subjected to overpressure exceeding the range to prevent sensor damage.
  • Use a damp cloth to clean the housing, avoid using corrosive solvents.
  • For long-term storage, disconnect power and pack properly, store in a dry environment.
