CAUTION ON SAFETY
First of all, read this “Caution on Safety” to ensure correct operation of the transmitter.
• The cautionary descriptions listed here contain important information about safety, so they should be
observed without fail. Those safety precautions are classified into ranks "DANGER" and "CAUTION".
On items listed under “ CAUTION ”, they may also lead to serious accidents depending on circum-
stances, and must be fully observed.
DANGER
• Non-explosion-proof transmitter must not be used in a place with explosive gases to prevent serious
accidents such as explosion, fire, etc.
CAUTION
• The transmitter is heavy. Be careful when handling it.
• The transmitter should be installed in a place that meets the operating conditions shown in DS sheet
or this instruction manual.
• Install the transmitter according to the instruction manual. Improper installation may lead to the
cause of fall, trouble or incorrect operation.
• When installing, make sure that the transmitter interior is free from cable chips and other foreign
objects to prevent fire, trouble, or incorrect operation.
• When power is ON, do not change the position of the field indicator in an explosion-proof area.
• When power is ON, do not change the position of the transmission unit in an explosion-proof area.
• When power is ON, do not change the angle of the indicator.
• Main valve used for piping should be selected with the maximum pressure of the process taken into
account (piping parts such as main valve, etc. should be furnished by user). If the main valve and
other parts do not meet the rating, it may result in leakage of gas or liquid which could lead to hazard.
• Pressure pipes to be used must meet the temperature/pressure rating.
ii
Wiring
DANGER
• On explosion-proof type transmitter, its wiring work must be performed according to the required
laws and regulations. Incorrect wiring may cause explosion, fire or other serious accidents.
CAUTION
• Before making wiring work, be sure to turn OFF the main power to prevent electric shocks.
• Use wiring materials of correct rating to prevent fire accidents.
• Connect a power source of correct rating to prevent fire accidents.
• The transmitter should be grounded as specified to prevent electric shocks or incorrect operation.
• After installing the transmitter, firmly close the covers of the transmission unit and terminal box. If
not, rain water enter the transmitter which may result in trouble or incorrect operation.
Adjustment
DANGER
• When using a flame-proof transmitter, do not connect HHC to the transmitter terminals and junction
terminals.
DANGER
• When removing an explosion-proof transmitter, turn OFF the main power, then disconnect the piping
and wiring. Do not remove it when the power is ON to prevent serious accident such as explosion,
fire, etc.

1. OUTLINE
The FCX-A2 series transmitter detects the differential pressure or pressure of various fluids, converts it
into a current signal of 4 to 20mA DC and transmits it.
All the adjustment functions are incorporated in the transmission unit for making adjustments easily and
exactly.
Transmitter settings (such as range and damping time constant, etc.) can be changed from an HHC (Hand
Held Communicator).
Principle
The operating principle of the FCX-A2 series transmitter is shown in the block diagram below.
The input pressure is changed into an electrostatic capacitance in the detecting unit. The change
proportional to the pressure undergoes conditioning and amplification in the transmission unit, and is
then output as a current of 4 to 20mA DC.

6.2 Piping
It is generally recognized that there are appropriate positioning relationship between the transmitter
and main process piping for accurate measurement to avoid harmful gas or liquid accumulation.
General recognizations are;
1 Mount transmitter below main process piping for liquid or steam measurement.
2 Mount transmitter above main process piping for gas measurement.
The standard style of FCX-A2 series transmitter correspond to the piping procedure 1 mentioned
above. Change the vent/drain plug to correspond to the piping procedure 2.
Main valve used for piping should be selected with the maximum pressure of the pro-
cess taken into account (piping parts such as main valve, etc. should be furnished by
CAUTION user). If the main valve and other parts do not meet the rating, it may result in leakage
of gas or liquid which could lead to a hazard.

(1) Protection is required to prevent dust from entering through the atmospheric
Important air inlet after installation of the manifold valve.
(2) If process pressure range is narrow (below 10kPa (1000mmH2O)), the follow-
ing should be considered.
• Pressure variation due to wind around atmospheric air inlet
• Temperature variation near process taps
• Difference in atmospheric pressure between process tap and transmitter location
To overcome this, provide atmospheric pressure-side pipe with a proper orifice
and consider accommodating the transmitter and atmospheric air inlet in a box.

Cautions on impulse piping
• For liquid, the impulse pipes should have an upward slope of 1/10 or more between the
process connection and the transmitter to prevent accumulation of gas, etc. in the detecting
unit.
• For gas, the impulse pipes should have a downward slope of 1/10 or more between the
process connection and transmitter to prevent accumulation of moisture, etc. in the detecting
unit.
• Avoid any sharp bends in impulse pipe which may cause gas or moisture to accumulate in
the impulse pipe.
• In order to prevent vibration of the transmitter body and capillary from interfering with
output, the transmitter body should be installed at a vibration-free place and the capillary
should be fixed to a stable support.
• Take care not to apply an excessive force to the transmitter during its connection.
• The impulse pipes used should be suitable for the working temperature, pressure, etc.
• When the measuring fluid is likely to freeze in the cover of the measurement chamber, the
cover needs to be warmed up with steam or a heater.

6.2.2 Piping of pressure and absolute pressure transmitters
(types: FKG, FKA)
Removal of protective cap
The process connection port of the transmitter is fitted with a protective cap. Before piping,
remove the cap carefully. When removing the cap, carefully protect the threaded portion and
sealing face from damage.
Connection of transmitter and impulse pipe
• Impulse pipe should be connected with an oval flange. Also, the pipe can directly be
screwed into the transmitter. Tightening torque of 7/16-20UNF mounting bolt in an oval
flange should be 30 to 40 N·m (3 to 4 kgf·m).
• After connection, close the stop valve of transmitter in order to prevent foreign materials
from entering the inside.
Position of process taps (Horizontal main process piping)
The position of the process tap is determined by the relationship between condition, characteris-
tics and measurement point of process fluid. Note the following figures when planning and
installing the piping.

Connecting method of the mounting flange
Tighten bolts of mounting flange and process flange in a diagonal order and about three cycles.
Removal of protective cap from process connection port
The process connection port on the low pressure side is fitted with a protective cap. Before
piping, remove the cap carefully. When removing the cap, carefully protect the threaded portion
and sealing face from damage.
Connection of transmitter and impulse pipe
• The pipe on the low pressure side can be connected with an oval flange. Also, the impulse
pipe can directly be screwed into the transmitter. Tightening torque of 7/16-20UNF mount-
ing bolt in an oval flange should be 30 to 40 N·m (3 to 4 kgf·m).
• After connection, close the stop valve of transmitter in order to prevent foreign materials

should be fixed to a stable support.
• Do not shock the seal diaphragm by hitting hard object against it, for example.
• Take care not to apply an excessive force to the flange during connection.

• In order to prevent vibration of the transmitter body and capillary from interfering with
output, the transmitter body should be installed at a vibration-free place and the capillary
should be fixed to a stable support.
• For minimizing the influence by a difference in the ambient temperature, the capillaries on
the high and low pressure sides should be laid together.
• Do not shock the seal diaphragm by hitting a hard object against it, for example.
• Water head pressure due to difference in the height of flange
When there is a difference (D) in flange mounting position between the high-pressure side
and the low-pressure side, a water pressure head “–ρ’D” is applied to the transmitter, so a
zero point shift for the water head pressure (–ρ’D) due to difference in height of flange is
required at range setting as shown in the example of typical piping.
On the FCX-A2 series transmitter, it is made by setting LRV, URV and –ρ’D with HHC (for
details, refer to Item 4 “Adjustment”, 4.1 Adjustment with HHC and operation procedure,
range change).

7. WIRING
Cautions on wiring
Use sealing tape, if using metal pipe screw coupling or rubber gasket and fastening gland in the case
of cable (outside diameter ø11) <0.43"> to ensure airtightness of the connection box.
1. If the connection box is located above the transmitter when using a protective tube
Important for the wiring, then moisture may enter the protective tube and have an adverse ef-
fect on the transmitter. So maintaining airtightness of the connection box is an im-
portant practice.
2. The thread of conduit tube should meet the selected size and a seal fixture should be
used.

A1 BUILT-IN ARRESTER
General
An arrester is used to protect a transmitter or receiver from an abnormal voltage such as lightning
surges induced into signal lines. A built-in type arrester is mounted behind the terminal unit. A
nameplate marked “with arrester” is attached to the terminal unit of transmitter with a built-in arrester.
Installation
The built-in arrester should be used in combination with panel mounting type arrester (type PXC) for
distributor protection.
+ 1 2 –
PXC PTL
– 5 E 6 + E
Grounding
Since transmitter and arrester groundings are internally connected together, user have only to connect
the external grounding terminals to ground.
Grounding terminal must be used, in case of the explosionproof or intrinsic safety type transmitter.

68
Maintenance
Check of arrester
• Measure output current from the transmitter check terminals and output current to flow into
transmitter (see figure below).
When current is measured with an ammeter connected to CK+ and CK– terminals, the inter-
nal resistance of the ammeter should be 12Ω or less.
• If the measured two output current are the same, the arrester is normal.
• In case the measured values have a difference of 0.1% (0.016mA) or more, the arrester is not
functioning.
• In the above case, the arrester unit (terminal unit) should be replaced with a new one.
Limitation of insulation resistance and dielectric strength test
An insulation resistance and dielectric strength test should be avoided as a rule, since it may
damage the arrester.
