PRTXAL Series RTD Process Temperature Alarms
Precautions
Read these instructions before installation. Configuration may be
easier before installation.
Avoid shock hazards! Turn power off before connecting or
disconnecting wiring. All wiring must be performed by a qualified
electrician or instrumentation technician. See diagrams on other
side for wiring examples. Consult factory for assistance.
Install or remove thermometer using a wrench on the hex fitting
only. Do not attempt to turn by forcing the housing.
Do not exceed maximum allowable housing temperature.
The spring-loaded design must be used with a thermowell. The non-
spring-loaded design can be used in non-pressurized applications
or applications with no flow. Due to the hardness of 316 stainless
steel, it is recommended that a thread sealant be used to ensure
leak-free operation.
Normal Operation
The factory default configuration is °F, downscale burnout, Setpoint
1 High Alarm, Setpoint 2 Low Alarm, 1.0 degree alarm deadband,
normal acting relays, no pass code required for configure/test
alarms mode.
To turn the unit on, apply power. If so equipped, the optional display
backlighting will be on. The display backlighting will not be apparent
under bright lighting conditions.
The display segments are tested for approximately 1 second. During
the startup sequence, the alarm relays are de-energized and the
alarm status LEDs are off.
After power-up the RTD temperature and units are displayed along
with the alarm relay states as indicated by the LEDs. The display
and alarm status are updated approximately 4 times per second,

button.
Viewing Alarm Trip Points
The RTD temperature, the value of Trip
Point 1, and the value of Trip Point 2 may be
selected for display as follows.
When the RTD temperature is being
displayed, press and release the SEL
(select) button. The Trip Point 1 value will be
displayed with TRIP1 on the lower display.
When the Trip Point 1 value is being
displayed, press and release the SEL button.

Alarm Test Mode
This mode allows testing of the alarms
regardless of the alarm trip points or the
temperature reading.
From the normal mode with temperature
being displayed, press and hold the TEST
button and then press the SEL button.
Release both buttons when the display
indicates - - - - .
- or If pass code protection is enabled, before
the unit enters the Alarm Test Mode, the
display initially indicates _ _ _ _ with the
left-most underscore blinking, and with
TSTPC on the lower display. Enter the userdefined pass code (3510 factory default) as
described in the Pass Code Entry section.
Note: During pass code entry the LEDs will
turn off and the unit will not respond to
changes in RTD temperature. The alarm
relays will maintain their prior states. The
unit will automatically revert to normal
operation if no buttons are operated for
approximately 15 seconds.
While in the Alarm Test Mode
with no buttons pressed,
the display will indicate the
temperature with DEG C or DEG
F slowly blinking on the lower
display.
While the TEST button is pressed
and held, both LED indicators
and alarm relays will toggle to
their opposite state. The display
will continue to indicate the
temperature.
To exit the Alarm Test Mode,
press and release the SEL
button. The display briefly
indicates - - - - and then returns
to normal operation.
Adjusting Set Points
Go to the User Configuration Mode to set up the alarm parameters
before setting up the alarm setpoints. Whenever the user
configuration mode is entered, even if no changes are made, all
alarm set points will be reset to the factory default maximum and
minimum values.
Alarm 1 factory default: HI alarm, 392.0°F trip point.
Alarm 2 factory default: LO alarm, –58.0°F trip point.
“Set Point” is defined as the temperature that will result in a change
of state only from a normal to an alarm condition.
“Trip Point” is defined as the temperature value that will result in
a change of state of alarm condition, and includes the effect of
deadband when returning from an alarm to
a normal condition.
The instructions illustrate how to change
Trip Point 1. The procedure is the same for
Trip Point 2.
From the normal mode press and release
the SEL button to display Trip Point 1. If
you want to change Trip Point 2, press SEL
again until TRIP2 is displayed.
While TRIP1 is displayed, press and hold the
TEST button and then press the SEL button.

Pass Code Entry
Pass codes are used to prevent unauthorized changes to settings.
Up to three different pass codes can be used to allow access to the
configuration, alarm settings and output test, or calibration.
During pass code entry the LEDs will turn off and the unit will not
respond to temperature changes. The alarm relays will maintain
their prior states. The unit will automatically revert to normal
operation if no buttons are pressed for 15 seconds.

status LEDs are off.
Calibration
Temperature calibration is performed at two points: ice point and
t
at a temperature above ice point. For general service, the full scale
temperature is normally used for the second point. However, if a
particular temperature is of critical interest, it may be used instead
for greatest accuracy at that point. When the applied temperature
is below approximately 12 °C (or 54 °F), the unit will automatically
select the ice-point calibration mode.
