Re-ranging a Pressure Transmitter

Dear All,

I need help regarding Re-ranging of pressure transmitter.

The Pressure transmitter is of Siemens make and is SMART type and is calibrated for 0-60mbar. My process requirement is to measure -30 to 30 mbar pressure.

So, can I re-range my transmitter as per my requirement as re-calibration is not required in case of SMART type transmitters and also I have no option for re-calibration of the transmitter.

thanks...

How can we answer if we don't know the model number

My guess is yes you can since you are not changing the span, just the offset, but read the manual it will tell you for sure. If you don't have the manual just hook it up to the configuration device and try, if it let's you the answer is "Yes"

Is that a Siemens SITRANS P DS III?

Product web page says measuring range of the series is 0 - 10 mbar to 0 - 400 bar.

The range should be noted on the nameplate.

And ultimately, you can't re-range the sensor.
