Appendix MID
6.2. Measurement error (according to EN12405-1:2005+A2:2010) in relation to the measured value:
at the rated temperature range (-25 ÷ 55ºC) ≤ 0.5%
at reference conditions ≤ 0.2%
6.3. Long term stability / 5 years ≤ 0.5%
The manufacturer recommends a vertical mount transmitter APC-2000ALW during the pressure measurements
in MID applications.
7. APC-2000ALW in MID application. Electronic display
Electronic indicating device (display), built-in the APC-2000ALW transmitters, are not controlled metrologically
and as such cannot be used for clearing in accordance with EN12405-1:2005+A2:2010.
8. APC-2000ALW in MID application. Protection against unauthorized
manipulation
8.1. Blocking by the transmitters manufacturer. Access to the local configuration buttons and to the
transmitter internal components is blocked by the sealing of the display cover and a measuring head locking
screw to the housing of the transmitter. The transmitter rated plates are made of materials self-destructive
during detachment, or alternative used metal rated plates have one of the screws sealed to the casing. Access
“spec MID locking” protects against unauthorized interference to transmitters from a HART system.
APC-2000ALW series transmitter manufacturer is using with a plastic seal in its MID realization. Change of the
"spec MID locking” status ("ON" or "OFF") is possible after removing of the manufacturer sealing from the local
buttons side cover only.
8.2. Blocking by the gas volume conversion manufacturer. Turn on the "spec MID locking" with local
buttons using local menu of transmitter (p.10.2.5.2 DTR.APC.APR.ALW.03(ENG), MID_WP – “ON”). Put the
seals of the gas volume conversion producer on the cover, screw of a sensor head and a label if it is metal
made. Places of seals application is shown by the arrows at Fig. 1c. Seal should be made in accordance with
the documentation of gas volume conversions in the place/country their use.
