Model ASM pressure transducer is a high performance pressure transducer

1.0 General information

Every Model ASM has been tested and calibrated before shipment. Specic performance
specications are shown on page 3 of this Guide. Setra Systems ASM pressure transducers

sense gauge, absolute, or vacuum gauge pressure and convert this pressure difference to
a proportional high level analog output. Voltage outputs of 0 to 5 VDC or 0 to 10 VDC, and
current output of 4 to 20 mA are offered.

2.0 Electrical installation

2.1 Media Compatibility

Model ASM transducers are designed for use with gases and liquids compatible with 17-4PH
stainless steel.

2.2 Environment

The operating temperature limits of the ASM are -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F)
The compensated temperature range is -20°C to +60°C (-4°F to +140°F)

2.4 Installation of Pressure Fittings

Your transducer is designed for the most accurate operation when subjected to pressures
within the designated pressure range. Refer to page 4 for proof pressure limits.

Standard sealants such as Teflon pipe tape generally are satisfactory on NPT threads. For

the most sensitive pressure ranges, excessive high torquing of a metal pressure tting may

cause slight zero shift which may be trimmed out using the zero adjustment. Use of a plastic

tting often shows no noticeable zero shift. The torquing effect does not appreciably affect
linearity or sensitivity. The 3/4 in. wrench flat (Hex) on the unit must be used when installing
the positive pressure tting.

CAUTION:

Connecting -EXC to positive excitation and +SIG to negative excitation at the same time may

damage the unit.

3.2 Voltage Output Units

The Model ASM voltage units are a four-wire type circuit energized thru +EXC and -EXC ter-

minal with 0-5 VDC or 0-10 VDC analog output through the +SIG Out and -SIG Out terminals.

3.3 Current Output Units

The Model ASM current units are a two-wire loop-powered 4 to 20mA current output and
deliver rated current into any external load of 0 to 800 ohms.

2

The current flows into the +EXC terminal and returns back to the power supply through the

-EXC terminal (See Diagram 1). Note: The +SIG Out and -SIG Out terminals are not used.
The power supply must be a DC voltage source with a voltage range between 9 and 30 VDC

measured between the + and - terminals. The unit is calibrated at the factory with a 24 VDC
loop supply voltage.

3.4 Cable for Bayonet Connectors

For good EMC performance, shielded cable shall be used and grounded to earth ground. Cable

shall only be used within a building and not be longer than 30 m (100 ft.).

4.0. Calibration

The ASM transducer is factory calibrated and should require no eld adjustment if mounted

in a vertical position. Whenever possible, any zero and/or span offsets should be corrected by

software adjustment in the user’s control system. However, ne zero and span adjustments

can be made through use of Secure-CalTM accessory (purchased separately) for calibration
access. The Model ASM transducer zero offset is trimmed in the vertical position (pressure
port pointing downward) prior to shipping from factory.

4.1 Zero/Span Adjustments with Secure-Cal

To make secure zero and span adjustments, attach SecureCal
transducer. (See Diagram 2).

4.2 Zero Adjustment

While applying zero pressure, zero offset may be adjusted by pressing the send button to

tare zero. If ne adjustment is needed on analog output, turn the encoder wheel until desired

compensation is seen on display.

Example for Voltage Output:

If 0.0025 VDC is measured, where 0 VDC is desired, turn wheel until -2.5 mV is attained, then
press send button.

Example for Current Output:

If 3.990 mA is read on current meter, turn wheel until +0.01 mA is attained, then press send

button.

Zero adjustment should be done prior to span. To get better results, always wait until unit has
warmed-up before making any adjustment.

4.3 Span Adjustment

Span or full scale output adjustments should only be performed by using an accurate pressure
standard (electronic calibrator, dead weight tester, digital pressure gauge, etc.) with greater or
at least comparable accuracy to the ASM transducer. With full range pressure applied to the

high pressure port, the span may be adjusted by pressing the send button to set span. If ne

adjustment is needed on span, and control pressure is applied at full pressure range, turn
encoder until target correction is achieved on LCD then press send button.
