Series 644 - Industrial Pressure Transmitter
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
The Series 644 Industrial Pressure Transmitter is a robust transmitter designed
for high accuracy pressure applications. Boasting an accuracy of ±0.05% FS RSS
(<±0.25% TEB), the 644 is intended for precise measurements in the critical
applications of calibration technology, hydraulic/pneumatic controls, and many
more laboratory and industrial settings. The Series 644 offers multiple
measurement options with two output choices (VDC or mA) and ten psig pressure
ranges (optional 0 to 15 psia). The robust and compact all stainless steel Series
644 is available with either a 1/4˝ male NPT, or 7/16˝-20 male SAE process
connections. Each transmitter is provided with an 11 point NIST traceable
calibration certificate.

3. Installation of Pressure Fittings
Your transmitter is designed for most accurate operation when subjected to
pressures within the designated pressure range. Refer to the catalog bulletin
specifications for proof pressure limits.
For the most sensitive pressure ranges, excessive high torquing of a metal
pressure fitting may cause slight zero shift which may be trimmed out using the
zero adjustment. Use of a plastic fitting often shows no noticeable zero shift. The
torquing effect does not appreciably affect linearity or sensitivity. The wrench flat
on the Series 644 must be used when installing the positive pressure fitting.

4. Position: The transmitter is not position sensitive. However, all standard models
are originally calibrated with the unit in a position with the pressure connection
downward. Although they can be used at other angles, for best accuracy it is
recommended that units be installed in the position calibrated at the factory.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
1. Electrical Connections: The 644 is available with cable version or bayonet
connector options having different connector pin outs shown in table below:

2. Voltage Output Units
The Series 644 voltage units are four-wire type circuit with 0 to 10 VDC analog output.
3. Current Output Units
The Series 644 current units are two-wire loop-powered 4 to 20 mA current output and
delivers rated current into any external load of 0 to 800 ohms.
The current flows into the + terminal and returns back to the power supply through the
- terminal (see Diagram 1). The power supply must be a DC voltage source with a
voltage range between 9 and 30 measured between the + and - terminals. The unit is
calibrated at the factory with a 24 VDC loop supply voltage and a 250 ohm load.

MAINTENANCE
After final installation of the pressure transmitter and its companion receiver, no
routine maintenance is required. A periodic check of system calibration is suggested.
The Series 644 transmitter is not field repairable and should be returned if repair is
needed (field repair should not be attempted and may void warranty). Be sure to
include a brief description of the problem plus any relevant application notes. Contact
customer service to receive a return goods authorization number before shipping.
