The Display PCB may be removed from the enclosure

for bench calibration. Loop Jumper must be installed

on Input Signal PCB to maintain loop,

refer to procedures below.

Calibrator Connected to Display PCB

Note: To maintain hazardous area protection, the input signal must always be connected to the Input Signal PCB, and not directly to the Display PCB.

Warning: Electrostatic hazard. Clean only with a moist cloth. Protect enclosure from exposure to chemical solvents and excessive ultraviolet (UV) light (e.g. sunlight).

Note 1: If any of the following operations are performed in the

hazardous area, all appropriate hazardous area procedures must be

followed.

Note 2: to prevent damage to electronic components caused by

electrostatic discharge, a grounding strap should be worn when

servicing the display.

SetuP

The only tools needed for calibration are a calibrated current source and a

screwdriver.

Calibration Connections

To access the input terminals it is necessary to remove the enclosure cover and the

Display PCB. This is done by loosening the four screws on the enclosure cover and

removing the cover. Completely loosen the left screw that holds the Display PCB to

the enclosure and loosen the right screw about four turns so the Display PCB remains

attached to the enclosure. Rotate the Display PCB 90° to gain access to the Input

Signal PCB. Next, connect a calibrated current source per Figure 1.

decimal Point Selection

The decimal point jumper array is located in the lower right corner of the Display PCB

next to the display. It is labeled DP1, DP2, DP3. Place a jumper over both pins of DP1

for a display of 199.9, DP2 for 19.99, or DP3 for 1.999.

Calibration

LO and HI calibration controls are located to the left of the display

(see Figure 1). Apply a signal equal to 4 mA and adjust the LO control to display the

desired reading. Apply a signal between 16 and 20 mA and adjust the HI control to

display the desired reading. Complete the calibration procedure by making any minor

adjustments to the LO and HI controls.

installation

Installation of the meter involves removing the Display PCB from its enclosure and

connecting a

1

/2″ conduit fitting to the hole provided. Refer to PD686 FM Approved

& CSA Certified Loop-Powered Meter Intrinsic Safety Barrier Connections diagrams

(LIM686-2) for further details. Wall mounting holes are located in each corner of the

enclosure (see Figure 4).

loop Connections

Disconnect power to the loop and install the meter as illustrated in Figure 2 and the

PD686 FM Approved & CSA Certified Loop-Powered Meter Intrinsic Safety Barrier

Connections diagrams (LIM686-2) supplied with the instrument. Replace the enclosure

cover.

Removing display PCB From the loop

The Display PCB and Input Signal PCB are connected together with one black and

one red wire. The wires are soldered to the Display PCB and connected to a screw

terminal connector on the Input Signal PCB.

To remove Display PCB:

1. Loosen the four screws on the enclosure cover and remove the cover from the

enclosure base.

2. Completely loosen the left-side screw holding the Display PCB to the enclosure and

loosen the right-side screw four turns so the Display PCB remains secure to the

enclosure.

3. Rotate the Display PCB 90° to gain access to the Input Signal PCB.

4. Install Loop Jumper over both pins to bypass Display PCB and allow the signal to

flow through the Loop Jumper. The display turns off when jumper is installed.

5. Disconnect the black and red signal wires from the screw terminal connector.

6. Loosen completely the right-side screw and lift Display PCB from enclosure. Care

should be taken to prevent static electricity from damaging the electronic circuitry.

7. Restore enclosure cover to the base to prevent contamination of components.

Restoring display PCB to the loop

1. Remove enclosure cover as described above in step 1.

2. Secure Display PCB to enclosure using right-side screw; do not tighten screw to

allow rotation of Display PCB while accessing Input Signal PCB.

3. Connect red wire to S+ terminal and black wire to S- terminal, as shown in Figure 1.

4. Remove Loop Jumper to allow the signal to flow through Display PCB (save push-

on jumper by placing over one pin only).

5. Tighten screws holding Display PCB and install enclosure cover.

Servicing display PCB outside the loop

Two modes of input signal allow the user to remove the Display PCB for service

without interrupting the loop as indicated above and operate the Display PCB at

another location in a non-hazardous area. The loop remains connected to the Input

Signal PCB while the Display PCB is absent for service. The user may operate the

Display PCB at another location by connecting a signal to “S+” and “S-” wires on the

Display PCB. Refer to Figure 3.
