  • Page 2 Do not attempt to loosen or remove flange bolts while the transmitter is in service. Replacement equipment or spare parts not approved by Emerson for use as spare parts could reduce the pressure retaining capabilities of the transmitter and may render the instrument dangerous.
  • Page 3 WARNING Sensor module and electronics housing Sensor module and electronics housing must have equivalent approval labeling in order to maintain hazardous location approvals. When upgrading, verify sensor module and electronics housing certifications are equivalent. Differences in temperature class ratings may exist, in which case the complete assembly takes the lowest of the individual component temperature classes (for example, a T4/T5 rated electronics housing assembled to a T4 rated sensor module is a T4 rated transmitter.) Physical access Unauthorized personnel may potentially cause significant damage to and/or misconfiguration of end users’...

    Reference Manual Remote Seal Systems 00809-0100-4002 May 2020 Remote Seal Systems DP Level and remote seal system measurement DP Level is a reliable measurement solution for measuring level, density, interface, or mass of a process media inside a tank. Remote seal system measurement is unaffected by agitation, foam, or internal obstacles. Remote diaphragm seals extend limitations due to process conditions such as high and low temperatures, corrosive processes, viscous mediums, and hygienic applications.

    Configuration Reference Manual May 2020 00809-0100-4002 DP Level transmitter installation best practices Pressure transmitters have a sensor module with a primary fill fluid. Therefore, the mounting position of a standard transmitter with silicon fill could read approx ±1.25 inH worst case after installation. This is simply zeroed out using a Field Communicator after installation so that it will read zero pressure.
  • Page 83 Reference Manual Configuration 00809-0100-4002 May 2020 4.2.2 Closed tank (non-zero based) For closed tank level applications, this value is most likely too high and cannot be zeroed out due to the applied pressure of the secondary fill fluid. For this reason, the transmitter would simply be re-ranged so that the 0% value (4 mA) would equal the installed value.

  • Page 89: Chapter 5 Fill Fluids

    5.1.2 Testing Emerson’s vapor pressure curves are derived from empirical lab testing in real devices at both vacuum conditions and at the maximum continuous temperature at one atmosphere of pressure. The maximum continuous temperature at one atm of pressure correlates to the thermal stability of the fill fluid, which is the maximum temperature the fill fluid will remain in its original molecular form.

  • Page 90: Fill Fluid Vapor Pressure Curves

    If the fill fluid vaporizes, the seal system is permanently damaged. Emerson offers numerous types of fill fluids for remote seal systems, each fill fluid has a specific vapor-pressure curve.
