FAQs of Sensocon USA Differential Pressure Transmitter Series DPT10-R8 - Range -1250 - 1250 Pa:
Q: How do I adjust the zero and span on the Sensocon DPT10-R8 differential pressure transmitter?
A: Zero and span adjustments are easily accomplished via the dedicated front button on the transmitter. Follow the step-by-step guidance in the supplied instruction manual to ensure precise calibration tailored to your specific application needs.
Q: What types of gases can the DPT10-R8 measure, and is it suitable for corrosive media?
A: The DPT10-R8 is designed to measure the differential pressure of air and non-corrosive gases. It is not recommended for use with aggressive or corrosive media, as it is constructed with ABS, anodized aluminum, and a silicone seal that may degrade with incompatible substances.
Q: Where is the best location to install this differential pressure transmitter?
A: For accurate measurement, mount the transmitter on a wall using the included bracket, in a location free from vibration and direct moisture exposure. Its IP54 rating makes it suitable for many indoor industrial environments that require dust and splash protection.
Q: What output options does the Series DPT10-R8 offer, and how do I select between them?
A: This device provides selectable output signals4-20 mA (2-wire) or 0-10 Vto accommodate a variety of control systems. Selection can typically be made via onboard jumpers or switches, as detailed in the instruction manual that comes with your transmitter.
Q: When is it necessary to use overpressure protection, and how does the DPT10-R8 handle this?
A: Overpressure protection is crucial in applications where transient spikes can occur. The DPT10-R8 is equipped to withstand up to 10 kPa, safeguarding internal components and ensuring reliable operation even during occasional pressure excursions above its rated measuring range.
Q: What are the main benefits of choosing the Sensocon Series DPT10-R8 for industrial pressure measurement?
A: Key benefits include high accuracy (1% FS), fast response time (1 second), robust construction, dual selectable output signals, easy wall-mount installation, and clear digital display.
