Introduction to the characteristics of WIKA intelligent pressure transmitter
Today's
WIKA smart
transmitters are usually hybrid smart
transmitters that have both digital and analog signals. Smart pressure
transmitters have the following features in their applications:
1 Wide range and large range ratio
WIKA smart
transmitters are typically available in a wide range of scales with a wide range ratio from 30:1 to 100:1, and some even reach 400:1. The smart
transmitter range is compared with the conventional analog
transmitter. The biggest advantage is that it can reduce the inventory. Together with the skill request, the range can be changed at any time without replacing the
meter. It is very convenient to use a smart
transmitter, and you can adjust the range online. If it is a routine to imitate the
transmitter, it will replace the new table with a larger range.
2 protection is simple and convenient
The location where the handheld communicator communicates with the intelligent pressure
transmitter can be used at the field
transmitter terminal block or at the terminal block in the main control room control cabinet. In this way, the external maintenance personnel can perform range correction, para
meter setting, and appearance protection on the
transmitter in a relatively safe and well-controlled operating room. It should be noted that the handheld communicator cannot be directly connected to the power supply that supplies power to the
transmitter in the external control loop. The reason is that the power supply is low impedance, and the handheld communication device cannot read information at both ends. Usually, the loop resistance is requested at 250~. 600Ω, the resistance is too small to communicate, and the pressure
transmitter will not work properly.
3 with high and low voltage side conversion function
WIKA smart
transmitters usually have the function of high and low voltage side of the
sensor, and the internal para
meters can be adjusted by the handheld communicator. In the production, I have encountered such a problem, because the appearance has been running for many years, the pressure guiding tube connected to the
transmitter needs to be replaced in time due to leakage, and the positive and negative phase pressure guiding tube is reversed when the external surface is used for replacement. If the two pressure guiding tubes are interchanged, the amount of work is large. The smart
transmitter has high and low voltage side conversion function, and the para
meter "D45:H/L SWAP" in the table can be changed from NOR
OMAL (right high voltage, left low voltage) to REVERSE (right low voltage, left high voltage).
4 Smart
transmitter's fixed output function
This function is convenient to use in the following situations: 1 When the transmitter is faulty, to ensure the production equipment and personal safety, or to ensure the quality of the product, the transmitter output is at a fixed value. 2 After the annual overhaul, because all the links in the external control circuit have been repaired, it is necessary to connect all the circuits before driving. At this time, the fixed output function of the smart transmitter can be used by the handheld device to find the menu. The "OUTPUTSET" item can usually set any value between 3.8 and 21.6 mA, and it is normal whether all the circuits in the location are connected.
