DewPro MMY31

1.2 Introduction

Unit descrip-
The DewPro MMY 31 is a loop powered dew point transmitter for the trace moisture
tion
range. The transmitter includes an aluminum oxide planar sensor element, a stainless
steel probe, a weather proof enclosure, and microprocessor electronics. It is designed to
be installed "in-line". Various mounting hardware such as flange and compression fittings,
are available for mounting into a process chamber, process pipe, etc. The DewPro
MMY31 measures dew point temperature in
Fig. 2

1.3 Theory of Operation

4 to 20 mA
The DewPro MMY 31 microprocessor controlled electronics operate with a voltage supply
Loop
of 12 to 32 V DC. At the nominal 24 V DC supply, the maximum loop resistance is 750
Ohm. The signal is represented by the 4 to 20 mA loop current and is directly proportional
to the dew point temperature range of -90
Planar Sensor The heart of the MMY31 is the newest Planar sensor element. It incorporates a new,
superior aluminum oxide sensor that provides longer calibration stability, improved
corrosion resistance, and faster speed of response. The sensor, mounted on a ceramic
substrate, also has a reduced temperature coefficient.
Calibration
Each DewPro is factory calibrated against precise NIST certified moisture references and
has an accuracy of +/- 2
once a year, depending on application and the required accuracy. GE General Eastern
has multiple calibration facilities world wide providing trace ability to national and
international standards.
