OMEGA’s PX921 Series wireless
transmitters are designed for safe
operation in tough industrial
installation—without the need for
hard wiring! The PX921 operates by
radio telemetry. A low power RF
transmitter safely transmits the
signal up to 152 m (500') to a
receiver / retransmitter where it is
converted into a 4 to 20 mA signal.
Rugged stainless steel constructed
and featuring S.O.S. technology
with a custom IC amplifier give the
PX921 series high stability, low drift
and long life.
SOS construction uses very stable
solid state silicon strain gages on a
Sapphire carrier which is glass
bonded to a titanium diaphragm. This
combination provides a very durable
transducer which
has excellent
stability over a wide
temperature range.
Additionally, the
titanium diaphragm
and Stainless Steel
wetted parts provide
maximum durability
and corrosion
resistance to harsh
industrial chemicals.

OPERATION:
The PX921 pressure transmitter converts pressure
measurements to a digital code which is processes by the
onboard microcontroller. The microcontroller generates a
coded data frame in accordance with the protocol. This frame
is then transmitted by UHF to the PX921-R where it is
decoded, validated and converted to an analog 4 to 20 mA
signal. This signal can then be transmitted and interface with
all standard 20 mA loop instruments.
DATA TRANSMISSION:
Data is transmitted as a bit stream data frame using
asynchronous protocol. a random delay between
transmissions minimizes collisions between adjacent streams.
Data error detection is employed to allow error free operation
in high interference environments. Indication of receipt of
uncorrupted data is provided on the PX921-R unit.
RADIO LICENSE:
No license is required with this equipment.
Data transmission is via a radio transmitter operating at a
designated low power UHF telemetry frequency. It operates in
the 418 MHz region @ 0.25 mW.
INSTALLATION:
The PX921 is simple to install and does not require additional
configuration tools. Once the PX921 has been connected to
the process fitting, configuration is easily carried out by setting
a series of miniature switches which are under the cover of
the transducer. At this stage it is possible to check the
calibration of the unit locally by measuring the voltage across
tow test points, which can then be adjusted with the zero and
span trimmers if required.
POWER SUPPLY
Units may be powered by either an internal battery (10.5 to
15 Vdc) or by an external supply voltage (10.5 to 30 Vdc). In
battery mode, a duty cycle power saving system is employed
to extend battery life.
