7.5.2 Venting Gas

1) Gradually open the vent screw to vent gas from

the transmitter pressure-detector section. (See

figure 7.6.)

2) When the transmitter is completely vented,

close the vent screw.

3) Tighten the vent screw to a torque of 10 N·m.

When you loosen the vent screw, the gas

escpes in the direction of the arrow.

7.6 Setting the Range Using the

Range-setting Switch

WARNING

The range setting switch must not be used in the

hazardous area.

When it is necessary to use the switch, operate it

in a non-hazardous location.

When pressure is applied to the transmitter, the low-

and high-limit values for the measurement range

(LRV and URV) can be changed (re-ranged) using

the range-setting switch (push-button) located on

the optional integral indicator plate and the external

zero adjustment screw. This procedure does

not require use of the communicator. However,

changes in the scale range and engineering unit

display settings for the integral indicator require use

of the communicator.
Follow the procedure below to change the LRV and

URV settings.

[Example]
Rerange LRV to 0 and URV to 3 MPa.
1) Connect the transmitter and apparatus as

shown in Figure 8.1 and warm it up for at least

five minutes.

2) Press the range-setting push-button.

The integral indicator then displays “LRV.SET.”

3) Apply a pressure of 0 kPa (atmospheric

pressure) to the transmitter.

(Note 1)

4) Turn the external zero-adjustment screw in the

desired direction. The integral indicator displays

the output signal in %.

(Note 2)

5) Adjust the output signal to 0% (1 V DC) by

rotating the external zero-adjustment screw.

Doing so completes the LRV setting.

6) Press the range-setting push-button. The

integral indicator then displays “URV.SET.”

7) Apply a pressure of 3 MPa to the transmitter.

(Note 1)

8) Turn the external zero-adjustment screw in the

desired direction. The integral indicator displays

the output signal in %.

(Note 2)

9) Adjust the output signal to 100% (5 V DC) by

rotating the external zero-adjustment screw.

Doing so completes the URV setting.

10) Press the range-setting push-button. The

transmitter then switches back to the normal

operation mode with the measurement range of

0 to 3 MPa.

Note 1: Wait until the pressure inside the pressure-detector

section has stabilized before proceeding to the next

step.

Note 2: If the pressure applied to the transmitter exceeds the

previous LRV (or URV), the integral indicator may

display error number “AL.30” (In this case, the output

signal percent and “AL.30” are displayed alternately

every two seconds). Although “AL.30” is displayed,

you may proceed to the next step. However, should

any other error number be displayed, take the

appropriate measure in reference to , “Errors and

Countermeasures” in each communication manual.
