  Measuring setups with remote seals

  The following pages show examples of typical measuring setups for using SITRANS P pressure transmitters with and without remote seals.

  Installation

  Remote seals of sandwich design are fitted between the connection flange of the measuring point and a dummy flange.

  Remote seals of flange design are fitted directly on the connection flange of the measuring point.

  The respective pressure rating of the dummy flange or the flanged remote seal must be observed.

  The pressure transmitter should always be installed below the connection flange (and always below the lower connection flange in the case of differential pressure transmitters). When measuring at pressures above atmospheric, the pressure transmitter can also be installed above the connection flange. When measuring at pressures below atmospheric, the transmitter must always be installed below the connection flange (and always below the lower connection flange in the case of differential pressure transmitters).

  Offset of measuring range

  If there is a difference in height between the two connection flanges when measuring with two remote seals, an additional differential pressure will result from the oil filling of the remote seal capillaries. This results in a measuring range offset which has to be taken into account when you set the pressure transmitter.

  An offset of the measuring range also arises when pressure transmitters and remote seals are not installed at the same height

  Pressure transmitter output

  If the level, separation layer or density increase in closed vessels, the differential pressure and hence the output signal of the pressure transmitter also increase.

  If the output signal is to fall as the differential pressure rises, you must swap the start of scale with the end of scale.

  With open vessels, a rising pressure is usually assigned to an increasing level, separation layer or density.

  Influence of ambient temperature

  The capillaries between the remote seal and the pressure transmitter should be kept as short as possible to obtain a good transmission response. Steps should also be taken to avoid temperature differences between the individual remote seals.

  If the complete setup is exposed to temperature variations, temperature errors will result from the thermally induced change of volume of the filling liquid in the capillaries, in the remote seals and in the connection parts.

  Notes

  When measuring separation layers, ensure that:

  • The separation layer is positioned between the two spigots.
  • The level in the vessel is always above the top spigot.
