SPX 1000 PROCESS PRESSURE TRANSMITTER
SPX 1000 Process Pressure Transmitters

SPX 1000 Series scalable pressure transmitter.
The SPX 1000 Series scalable pressure transmitter offers a cost effective solution to gauge and absolute pressure measurement with outstanding performance. Any span within a 1:1 to 10:1 ratio of the pressure module upper range limit can be configured via a simple setup routine using push-buttons located on the electronics board. When calibration is complete, a switch locks the push-buttons out of the main circuit, eliminating this potential source of drift to ensure optimum long term stability.

  • Ranges from 1 psi to 15,000 psi

  • Gauge and absolute pressure ranges

  • 10:1 scalability

  • Push button zero and span adjustment

  • ±0.15% FS accuracy, 400% overpressure

  • Higher performance and lower cost

  • Hazardous-area approvals are pending

The electronics are housed in a compact and lightweight aluminum alloy housing with an environmental seal between the terminal/conduit section and the electronics compartment, thus eliminating failures due to ingress of condensate. The lightweight design enables direct mounting to the process, eliminating the need for additional mounting hardware. An alternate housing of 316L SS is available with aluminum bronze end caps. A Hastelloy media isolation diaphragm is fitted as standard enabling the SPX 1000 to be used across a broad range of industrial applications.
The basic sensor is housed within a high integrity glass-to-metal seal, providing both electrical and physical isolation from the pressure media. The Hastelloy isolation diaphragm is electron-beam welded to this seal and transmits applied pressure to the sensor via a silicone fluid filling.
The electronics assembly utilizes microprocessor and surface-mount technology to create a compact circuit with the minimum of components. Temperature compensation coefficients are stored within the microprocessor during manufacture to minimize any errors caused by changes in ambient temperature. The optional display module provides local LCD readout.

Standard Ranges The transmitter is supplied calibrated in the following
standard ranges or calibrated to any acceptable intermediate
span specified. Please discuss your requirements
with an engineer.
0-1 psi to 0-10 psi
0-3 psi to 0-30 psi
0-10 psi to 0-100 psi
0-30 psi to 0-300 psi
0-100 psi to 0-1000 psi
0-300 psi to 0-3000 psi sealed
0-1000 psi to 0-10,000 psi
0-1500 psi to 0-15,000 psi
Range Adjustment
Span setting: The transmitter can be ranged to give a full 4-20mA
change for any span down to 10% of the Full Scale (FS),
e.g. a 30 psi device can be adjusted down to a minimum
span of 3 psi (10:1 turndown)
Zero offset: 0 to +90% FS for absolute configuration.
For gauge configuration, the zero (4mA) output of the
transmitter can be set anywhere within the pressure range
-15 psig to +90% FS, e.g. a 30 psig device can be
adjusted to give 4-20mA for -15 to +15 psig. If downranged
10:1 to 3 psig, the 4-20mA can be set anywhere
within the pressure measurement range up to a maximum
zero offset of 27 psi, allowing the calibrated range of 27
to 30 psig
Overpressure The rated pressure can be exceeded by the following
multiples without degrading performance:
6 x FS for 10 psi range
4 x FS or 2,100 psi maximum, for ranges up to 1000 psi
2 x FS or 13,000 psi max., for ranges up to 10,000 psi
30,000 psi for 15,000 psi range
Pressure Containment Application of high pressure up to the following may
damage the sensor but process leakage will not occur:
10x FS for 10 psi range
6x FS (3000 psi maximum) for ranges up to 1000 psi
20,000 psi for absolute and sealed gauge versions 1000
psi and up.
30,000 psi for 15,000 psi range
Transmitter Supply
Voltage
If installed, the LCD indicator will flash to signify an “out
of range” reading. In the event of a transmitter failure, the
output will be driven to <3.6mA or >21mA (user configurable)
and, if installed, the LCD indicator will display
“ALA” to signify alarm state
Process Media Any liquid, gas or vapor compatible with a welded
assembly of a Hastelloy C276 diaphragm with either
316 stainless steel or Hastelloy C body. NACE MR-01-75
compliant. For 15,000 psi range only: Any liquid or gas
compatible with Inconel 625
Output Current 4-20mA (2 wire configuration) proportional to the
calibrated pressure range
