T550X Miniature I/P, E/P Transducer

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Type 550X is a compact electronic pressure regulator designed for converting variable signals into proportional pneumatic outputs. It is ideal for space-constrained applications and provides precise air pressure regulation for actuators, valves, and other control elements. The device features an integral volume booster for high flow capacity, enhancing control speed in critical applications.
Key Features:
  • Compact size suitable for high-density mounting.
  • Easy wiring options including conduit, terminal block, or DIN 43650 connections.
  • Multiple mounting options: wall, panel, DIN rail, pipe, or manifold.
  • Input/output ports on both front and back for flexible connections.
  • External zero and span adjustments for convenient field calibration.
  • Intrinsic safety approvals for 4-20mA units, including FM, CSA, and optional ATEX.
Principles of Operation: The Type 550X operates as a force balance device with a coil suspended in a magnetic field. Current through the coil causes movement, creating backpressure that acts as a pilot to an integral booster relay. Adjustments for zero and span are made via screws on the unit's front face.
Functional Specifications:
  • Input ranges include 4-20 mA, 0-5 VDC, 0-10 VDC, 1-5 VDC, and 1-9 VDC.
  • Output ranges vary from 3-15 psig to 0-120 psig, with specific BAR equivalents.
  • Air consumption is 1.8 scfh at mid-range, with supply pressure up to 150 psig.
  • Flow capacity ranges from 4.5 scfm to 20.0 scfm depending on supply pressure.
  • Temperature limits are -20° to +150° F (-30° to +65° C).
Performance Specifications:
  • Linearity is less than ±0.5% of span.
  • Hysteresis and repeatability are less than 0.5% of span.
  • Supply pressure sensitivity is less than 0.1% of span per 1.0 psig.
Mounting and Accessories: The Type 550X offers various mounting options, including direct wall, panel, pipe, DIN rail, or manifold. The Type 925 Multifunction Manifold allows for a common air supply to multiple units, with individual shut-off valves for safe service or modification.
Ordering Information: The document provides detailed ordering codes for different output ranges, input signals, and electrical connections. Accessories such as DIN rail mounting kits and pipe mounting kits are also available.
Compliance and Approvals: The Type 550X complies with standards such as EN 50082-1:1998 and EN 55011:1999. It has ATEX approvals and is rated for various hazardous area classifications, including intrinsically safe and non-incendive environments.
