Figure 3-3. Power Supply Load Limitations, 4–20 mA Transmitters
Surges/transients
The transmitter will withstand electrical transients of the energy level usually encountered
in static discharges or induced switching transients. However, high-energy transients, such
as those induced in wiring from nearby lightning strikes, can damage the transmitter.
Optional transient protection
Transient protection can be ordered as a factory installed option (Option Code T1 in the
transmitter model number). Transient protection can not be added to units ordered
without the T1 option.
3.5.4
Zero the transmitter
Performing a zero adjustment is a recommended step for sealed gauge transmitters.
Note
Do not re-zero absolute transmitters.
Re-zeroing the transmitter allows for a single point adjustment to compensate for any
mounting position and sealed gauge effects. This can be done with a zero trim (See
), 4-20 mA rerange or with the zero and span adjustments.
