Precautions for Using A Pressure Transmitter

Before using our popular UPB1 pressure transmitter, you can find precautions for using a pressure transmitter as following:

(1) Do not use a voltage higher than 36V on the transmitter, it will easily cause damage.

(2) The transmitter should not touch the diaphragm with hard objects, which will damage the diaphragm.

(3) The measured medium must not freeze, otherwise the sensor element isolation diaphragm is easily damaged, resulting in damage to the transmitter.

(4) When measuring steam or other high-temperature media, the temperature should not exceed the limit temperature when the transmitter is used, otherwise a heat sink must be used.

(5) When measuring steam or other high-temperature media, in order to connect the transmitter and the pipeline together, a cooling pipe should be used, and the pressure on the pipeline should be used to transmit it to the transformer. When the measured medium is water vapor, an appropriate amount of water should be injected into the cooling pipe to prevent the superheated steam from directly contacting the transmitter, resulting in damage to the sensor.

(6) In the process of pressure transmission, several points should be noted: the connection between the transmitter and the heat pipe must not leak; be careful when opening the valve, so as not to directly impact the measured medium and damage the sensor diaphragm; the pipeline must be kept unobstructed, to avoid deposits in the pipe from popping out and damaging the sensor diaphragm.
