Setting Siemens Pressure Transmitter
Used on Heatec Vertical Asphalt Tanks
This document provides information on setting Siemens pressure transmitters used on Heatec vertical asphalt tanks TAV-10, TAV-15, TAV-20, TAV-25, TAV-30 and TAV-35 (Figure 1). It applies to Siemens Sitrans P, Series DSIII pressure transmitter 7MF4033-1CY10-1NC6-Z+B21Y01 (Figure 2) (fitted with remote seal (sensor) 7MF4810-2QA02).
These tanks are used to store liquid asphalt. The transmitter indicates the level of liquid material in the tank.
This document also provides information for converting levels to gallons.
In addition to this document, Siemens User’s Manual UMSITRPDS3-1 is also furnished.
The information in these two documents should enable users of Heatec tanks to reset the transmitters in the field. Although the transmitters are preset at the Heatec factory before the tanks are shipped, users may need to change their settings for different liquid materials.
