ABB MEASUREMENT & ANALYTICS | OPERATING INSTRUCTION
PGS100 and PAS100
Gauge and absolute pressure transmitters
Engineered solutions for all
applications
Measurement made easy
Introduction
The present manual provides information on
installing, operating, troubleshooting the PGS and
PAS pressure transmitter models. Every section of
the present manual is specifically dedicated to the
specific phase of the transmitter lifecycle starting
from the receipt of the transmitter and its
identification, passing to the installation, to the
electrical connections, to the configuration and to
the troubleshooting and maintenance operations,
as applicable.
The pressure transmitters model PGS and PAS are
field mounted, microprocessor based electronic
transmitters. Accurate and reliable measurement of
gauge and absolute pressure is provided, in the even
most difficult and hazardous industrial
environments. These models can be configured to
provide specific industrial output signals according
to 4 to 20mA with HART digital communication.
