3.5.17 Capillary Fill Fluid Density
Compensation
For transmitters with diaphragm seals, this function
is used to compensate the zero shift caused by the
ambient temperature effect on the capillary tubes.
The following equation indicates the relationship
between the calculated output value and the
compensating constant K (%/°C) with the measured
ambient temperature at the capsule module.
Compensated output = output + K × Tamb
(1) Temperature Compensation Mode Setup
When using this function, set
T.Z. Cmp mode
to ON to enable or OFF to disable. To set to ON,
follow the procedure below.

where,
B: Constant value of fill fluid (See Table A.)
span: |URV – LRV|
h: Distance from high pressure side to low
pressure side (m)
EJX118A: Distance from high side of
diaphragm seal to low side of diaphragm
seal.
EJX438A: Distance from diaphragm seal
(high side) to position of transmitter (low
side).
