FAQs of Dwyer MS 711 Magnesense Differential Pressure Transmitter:
Q: How do I select between the 4-20 mA and 0-10 VDC output signals on the Dwyer MS 711 transmitter?
A: You can select your preferred output signal (4-20 mA or 0-10 VDC) using the devices configuration options during installation. Refer to the installation manual for step-by-step instructions and wiring guidance.
Q: What types of media can be measured by the MS 711 differential pressure transmitter?
A: The transmitter is designed to measure the differential pressure of air or non-combustible, compatible gases. It is not suitable for use with flammable gases or liquids.
Q: When is it necessary to perform zero and span adjustment on this device?
A: Zero and span adjustments are recommended upon initial installation, after major maintenance, or if you observe any drift in readings. The device offers a push-button feature to make calibration quick and convenient.
Q: Where should the Dwyer MS 711 be installed for optimal performance?
A: Install the transmitter on a stable, vibration-free wall or surface close to the pressure source, using the provided mounting screws. Ensure the location is within the specified operating temperature range (-10C to +50C) and protected from extreme environmental conditions.
Q: What is the process for connecting the electrical wiring to the unit?
A: Electrical connections are made via a terminal block inside the enclosure. After routing your wiring, simply loosen the housing, connect each wire as indicated in the manual, and tighten the terminal screws securely before resealing the enclosure.
Q: How does the device ensure measurement accuracy and signal stability?
A: The MS 711 offers 1% full-scale accuracy, a fast 250 ms response time, and utilizes a silicon sensor to deliver reliable, stable output even in rapidly changing conditions. Factory calibration and push-button adjustments further support sustained accuracy.
Q: What are the main benefits of choosing the Dwyer MS 711 for industrial applications?
