4. Function
4.1 Construction
4.2 Description of functions
4.3 PT series

4.1 Construction
The PTs of series MDT 420 x/460 x are industry standard.
The main advantages are:
- manufactured under ISO 9002
- thermal stability
- resistance to aggressive media
- insensitivity to electromagnetic radiation (EMC)
- liquid-filled transmission system (mercury)
- pressure measurements in plastic melt up to a temperature of 400°C (750°F)
- maximum pressure 2000 bar
4.2 Description of functions
Through a closed, liquid-filled pressure transmission system, the PT furnishes
an electrical signal that is proportional to the pressure of the melt.
The pressure applied by the medium is forwarded to the measuring diaphragm via the
separating diaphragm and the transmission medium (standard configuration:
mercury) in the capillary. The deflection of the measuring diaphragm changes the
resistance of the strain gauge bonded to the measuring diaphragm. The strain gauge
is a Wheatstone bridge.
An electric signal proportional to the pressure is generated via the supply voltage.

4.3 PT series
Fig. 05: Functioning
The MDA/LDA/TDA series PTs are also principle of the PT
available as PT series. The PT types of the MDT 420/460
correspond to the MDA models, and the series
TPT types correspond to the TDA models;
the number codes are identical. The PT
series differs from the MDA series in that
all specifications are given in US American
units of measure.
E.g.: 1 bar = 14,5 PSI
(PSI value is rounded)
2,54 cm= 1" (inch)

All other specifications are the same as in


the MDT series.

When reworking the mounting hole, pay particular attention to the


centricity of:
- the hole,
- the thread and
- the sealing surface.

Pressure sealing takes place on the 45° beveled sealing surface and on the front
cylindrical section of the PT (see figures 06 and 07).
The sealing surface must be:
- correctly machined
- free from marks and rough edges
- free from solidified plastic residue.

6.2 Checking the mounting hole


- Paint the test bolt DYNISCO on the marked area
(figure 08, item 1) with marking ink up to the
thread.
Fig. 08: test bolt with marking ink

- Insert the test bolt in the mounting hole


- Twist it in by hand until the two sealing surfaces make contact.
- Remove and examine the test bolt.

The only acceptable abrasion of marking ink is at the sealing edge (45°), evenly (!)
over the entire circumference.

If the ink has been rubbed off in other places too:


- rework the mounting hole.

7.2 Calibration

PTs of series MDT 420/460 have an internal calibration signal. Connecting


terminals E and F switches the calibration signal to the signal output. It is 80% of the
full scale pressure of the transmitter.

Calibrate in pressureless state and at room temperature. Other


ambient temperatures will corrupt the signal.
Do not change the installed position of the PT after calibration. If
the position is changed you must re-calibrate the PT.

- Connect a meter or suitable display unit to the signal output.


- Set the display unit or external amplifier to pressureless state (zero point).
- Connect terminals E and F. The calibration signal is connected to the output.
- Set the calibration value (80% of nominal pressure) on the display unit or
external amplifier.
- Check the zero point setting on the display unit once again.

7.3 Zero adjustment


For PTs of series MDT 420 x/460 x, adjust zero at operating temperature!

- Wait until a steady operating temperature is reached at the pressure sensor.


- Set the zero point on the display unit or external amplifier.

7.4 Operation

Before starting the machine, wait until the melt medium at the
diaphragm of the PT has reached its operating / processing
temperature. If the machine is started before the medium reaches
its operating temperature, the PT will be damaged. If it is hard to
tell when the operating temperature has been reached, use a
combined TDT PT with thermocouple.
