Leveling Transmitters with Small Absolute or Differential Pressure Spans
Mounting position of these
transmitters is critical due to
the smaller transmitter spans.
To minimize these positional
effects on calibration (zero
shift), take the appropriate
mounting precautions that
follow for the given transmitter
model.
See Figure 5 and 5a for
suggestions on how to level
the transmitter using a spirit
balance.
To perform a Zero Trim after
leveling, refer to Section 2.
Models STA122 and STA922
Center
Section
Process
Head
Position spirit balance on
center section of meter
body only.
For a model STA122 or STA922 transmitter, you must ensure that the
transmitter is vertical when mounting it. You do this by leveling the
transmitter side-to-side and front-to-back.
Mount transmitter vertically to assure best accuracy. Position spirit
balance on pressure connection surface of AP body.
Figure 5a
To mount a flange mounted
transmitter model, bolt the
transmitter’s flange to the flange
pipe on the wall of the tank.
On insulated tanks, remove
enough insulation to
accommodate the flange
extension.
It is the End User’s
responsibility to provide a flange
gasket and mounting hardware
that are suitable for the
transmitter’s service condition.
To prevent degradation of
performance in Flush-Mounted
Flanged Transmitters, exercise
care to ensure that the internal
diameter of the flange gasket
does not obstruct the sensing
diaphragm.
To prevent degradation of
performance in Extended Mount
Flanged Transmitters, ensure
that there is sufficient clearance
in front of the sensing
diaphragm body.
