DESCRIPTION
Differential Pressure Transmitter with MODBUS Interface DPT-MOD

DPT-MOD (-IN)

Differential Pressure Transmitter with MODBUS Interface - Optional Input module

Applications

The DPT-MOD differential pressure transmitter for air is designed to Modbus communication network (RTU).
The digital signal can be sent as an output over Modbus communication network.

Usage & Applications

The Modbus transmitter can be used in all the in the same applications as the standard transmitters.

Reduce costs

Reduce the installation costs and costs of wiring work with new Modbus transmitters. Modbus transmitters can do with much less wiring than the traditional 3-wire transmitters, since one or several Modbus devices can be connected on a serial line.

Each device is individually temperature compensated.

Settings

Differential Pressure Transmitter with MODBUS Interface DPT-MOD (-IN) Settings

Zero-point adjustment

Note! Supply voltage must be connected one hour before the 0-point adjustment is carried out.
1) Loose both tubes from the pressure inlets + and – or ensure that the existing differential pressure is zero. (eg. air handling unit switched off)
2) Send the zeroing command via modbus or press the push button. The red led turns ON.
3) Wait until LED turns off and then install tubes again to the pressure inlets
It is recommended to adjust the zero point every 12 months during normal operation
• If the transmitter is equipped with automatic zero element the manual zeroing is not required.
• If the differential pressure in the measurement point is controlled to be zero (etc. air handling unit switched off), the zeroing can be done via modbus.

Optional auto zero element *

Optional auto zero element makes the transmitter maintenance free for periodical manual zeroing. The element automatically adjusts the transmitters zero point from time to time, this eliminates the zero point long term drift of the piezoresistive sensing element.
Zero point adjustment is carried out every 10 minutes. During zero point adjustment the output and display values will freeze to the latest measured value. The automatic zero point adjustment takes 3,5 seconds.

Modbus functions

The device supports to the following functions and registers:
FUNCTION 04 - Read input Register
Register Parameter Description Data type Value Range
3x0001 Program version 16 bit 0 ÷ 1000 0,00 ÷ 99,00
3x0002 Pressure in Pascals 16 bit 0 ÷ 2000 0,00 ÷ 2000(Pa)
FUNCTION 05 - Write Single coil
Register Parameter Description Data type Value Range
0x0001 Zeroing function 0 bit 0 ÷ 1 On - Off
To zeroing, write 1 to register 0x0001. The register 0x0001 state returns back to 0 automatically after zeroing.

Input Modules for Differential Pressure Transmitters

Input module is a plug-in module for DPT-MOD that converts external field signals into Modbus RTU network. It can be assembled into DPT-MOD afterwards, even in the field and on site.

Usage & Applications

Enhanced with input module, the Differential Pressure Transmitter with Modbus interface can be used as a Temperature Transmitter as well.

Reduce costs

Installation costs are significantly reduced when you do not need to use separate temperature transmitters or Modbus converters. Simply connect the temperature sensors into the input module and read the signal over Modbus RTU interface.

Input signals can be read over MODBUS via DPT MOD RS484 interface.
