The PD663 is a loop-powered field meter that is
FM Approved and CSA Certified as ExplosionProof, Dust-Ignition Proof, and Flame-Proof, and
ATEX & IECEx Certified as Flame-Proof and
Protection by Enclosure. The PD663 is easy to
install and program and it can be seen in a
variety of lighting conditions and even in bright
sunlight. The fact that this meter is loop-powered
means that there is no need to run additional,
costly power lines into a hazardous area. The
meter gets all of the power it needs from the
4-20 mA loop and its 1.7 V drop results in a
minimal burden on the loop.
The meter features a wide -40 to 75°C operating
temperature range and comes with two 1/2" NPT
threaded conduit openings and flanges for wall
or pipe mounting. Calibration is a quick process
involving the four internal push buttons. The
PD663’s display will read up to 2999; we call this
3½+ digits!

Information Menu (info)
The Information menu is located in the
Advanced features menu, to access Information
menu see Advanced Features Menu, page 11.
It shows software identification number, version
number, and calibration temperatures. To
determine the software version of a meter:
Go to the Information menu (info) and press
Enter button.
The meter will automatically scroll through the
software release number and software version.
The meter temperatures at the time of last

information display.
Following the information display, the meter will
exit the Advanced features menu and return to
run mode.
Internal Calibration (
The internal calibration allows the user to scale
the meter without applying a signal. The use of a
calibrated signal source is necessary to perform
the internal calibration of the meter. Check
calibration of the meter at least every
12 months.
The Internalcalibration menu is part of the
Advanced features menu.
Press and hold the Menu button for 5 seconds

20.00 mA. Apply a 20.00 mA signal and press
Enter. The display flashes for a moment while
the meter is accepting the signal.
ICal
)
Input Signal Filter (
The noise filter is available for unusually noisy
signals that cause an unstable process variable
display. The noise filter averages the input
signal over a certain period. The filter level can
be set to low (LO), high (HI), or off (OFF). The
higher the filter setting, the longer the averaging
time and so the longer the display may take to
find its final value.
The filter contains a noise filter bypass feature
so that while small variations in the signal will be
filtered out, large, abrupt changes to the input
signal are displayed immediately.
An error message indicates that the calibration
process was not successful. After the error
message is displayed, the meter will revert to
input 2 calibration settings. The error message
might be caused by inadvertently leaving the
signal at the previous level or not maintaining a
0.40 mA minimum span. Press the Menu button
to cancel the current calibration process if
necessary.
