Series 648B and 648C Differential Pressure Transmitter
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
he Series 648B and 648C Differential Pressure Transmitters are designed to
T
be used with clean, dry air and other non-corrosive gases. Each unit features a
push-activated zero function and an associated LED light indicator. With the
convenient push-button, zero calibration can be performed without any additional
equipment, which significantly reduces time and cost for users. The dual color
ED indicates if the transmitter is at normal operation, overpressure, or in the
L
rocess of zero calibration. The enclosure consists of a flame retardant plastic
p
op cover and a stainless steel bottom plate for ruggedness. The pressure ranges
t
vary from 0.1 in w.c. to 25 in w.c. unidirectional and 0.25 in w.c. to 5 in w.c.
bidirectional. Series 648B comes standard with ±0.8% FS* accuracy, while 648C
models are available in ±0.4% FS* accuracy for more demanding applications.
Wiring time is reduced with the removeable terminal block. Each unit features a
2-wire 4 to 20 mA output that is fully protected against short circuiting and
incorrect wiring.
Mounting
Series 648B and 648C transmitters are designed for mounting by using the two (2)
slots (suitable for #6 screws) that are provided on the mounting plate. For optimum
performance, isolate the instrument from vibration and provide relatively clean, dry
air to the pressure ports.
In most applications, preferred installation is with the baseplate mounted vertically
and located on a flat surface in a junction box or attached to a nearby beam. Quick
and easy field replacement is possible by removing the single case screw that
holds the housing to the baseplate and lifting the housing free. The baseplate will
remain mounted and can be used with the replacement units housing.
NOTICE
Piping
Two (2) 3/16˝ OD barbed pressure fittings are provided for pressure connection
with 1/8˝ ID push on tubing.
The overpressure limit with the new tension diaphragm construction is up to 15 psi
regardless of range.
The axis most sensitive to vibration is the one perpendicular to
the baseplate. Avoid mounting with maximum vibration along
axis.

WIRING DIAGRAM FOR 648B SERIES
Calibration
he 648B and 648C series are factory calibrated and should require no field
T
djustment. However, both zero and span adjustments are provided near the screw
a
erminal strip. Whenever possible, any zero and/or span offsets should be corrected
t
by software adjustment in the user’s control system. Use the zero and span
adjustments only if absolutely necessary. The 648B and 648C transmitters are
calibrated in the vertical position at the factory (baseplate vertical). For use in any
other orientation, position the unit and follow the adjustment procedure listed below.
f a change in range is needed, contact the Customer Service Department for a
I
eplacement in the appropriate range.
r
Zero Adjustment
While monitoring the current output with both pressure ports open to atmosphere, the
zero may be adjusted. Use push-button adjustment on the front of the unit to reset
zero.
pan Adjustment
S
pan or output adjustments should only be done using an accurate pressure standard
S
(electric manometer, digital pressure gage, etc.). With FS pressure applied to the high
pressure port (reference open to atmosphere), adjust span to achieve 20 mA output.
MAINTENANCE/REPAIR
Upon final installation of the Series 648B and 648C, no routine maintenance is
required. The Series 648B and 648C are not field serviceable and should be returned
if repair is needed. Field repair should not be attempted and may void warranty.
WARRANTY/RETURN
Refer to “Terms and Conditions of Sales” in our catalog and on our website. Contact
customer service to receive a Return Goods Authorization number before shipping the
product back for repair. Be sure to include a brief description of the problem plus any
additional application notes.
