Description

Paroscientific Intelligent Transmitters consist of a Digiquartz® Pressure Transducer and a digital interface board in an integral package. Commands and data requests are sent via two-way RS-232 or RS-485 serial interfaces. Direct digital outputs in engineering units are provided with parts-perbillion resolution using the built-in, anti-aliasing IIR filter mode. Typical accuracy is 0.01% even under harsh environmental conditions. All intelligent transmitters are preprogrammed with calibration coefficients for full plug-in interchangeability.

Intelligent transmitters are available in 20 absolute pressure ranges from 15 psia (0.10 MPa) to 40,000 psia (276 MPa), and 7 gauge pressure ranges from ± 2 psig (±0.015 MPa) to 200 psig (0.15 MPa). Dual RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces allow complete remote configuration and control of all operating parameters, including resolution, sample rate, choice of engineering units, integration time, and sampling requests. Commands include: Single sample and send, synchronized sample and hold, continuous sample and send, and special burst sampling modes.

Features include support for both serial loop and multi-drop networking, high-speed continuous pressure measurements, selectable baud rates up to 115,200 baud, synchronization of measurements with time based integration, 2 or 4 wire RS485 transmission distances greater than 1 kilometer, a power management “sleep” mode, data formatting features, and unit identification commands.

Free software is included for setup, configuration, sampling, display, data logging, and plotting.

All Digiquartz® Transducers come with a limited 5-year warranty with the first 2 years covered at 100%.

The Model 715 displays pressure and temperature data from all Paroscientific Intelligent transmitters that have Dual RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces. The two-line, 16 character, alphanumeric, backlit, liquid crystal display is user configurable with included software. Display functions include pressure and temperature values with engineering units, over pressure warning, tare indicator, user defined text messages, and a horizontal analog bar graph showing percentage of full-scale pressure. The Model 715 Display will respond to display commands from the transmitter, a computer, or other serial host on either the RS-232 or RS-485 port. For stand-alone operation, it displays data whenever power is applied to the transmitter.
