3.5 Piping the ST 800 Transmitter

3.5.1 Piping Arrangements

Piping arrangements vary depending upon process measurement requirements and the transmitter model.
For example, a differential pressure transmitter comes with double-ended process heads with ¼-inch NPT
connections, which can be modified to accept ½-inch NPT through optional flange adapters. Gauge
pressure transmitters are available with various connections for direct mounting to a process pipe.
A ½-inch, schedule 80, steel pipe is commonly used for transmitter integration into a process system.
Many piping arrangements use a three-valve manifold to connect the process piping to the transmitter. A
manifold makes it easy to install and remove or re-zero a transmitter without interrupting the process. A
manifold also accommodates the installation of blow-down valves to clear debris from pressure lines.
Figure 12 represents a typical piping arrangement using a three-valve manifold and blow-down lines for a
differential pressure transmitter being used to measure flow.
