The Panametrics XDP display package provides a microprocessor-based, explosion-proof control platform for the XMO2 thermoparamagnetic oxygen transmitter, the XMTC thermal conductivity transmitter or any other 4-20mA output transmitter.
The rugged XDP display/controller is microprocessor-based and certified to Class 1, Division1, Groups B,C,D and ATEX EEx d IIC T6. Most importantly, the unit features an infrared, thru-glass touch keypad, which allows complete access to all of the XDP user programmable features including output type, range selection, automatic calibration, and error handling. The IR keypad feature allows field engineers to interact with the analyzer through the front display without the need of opening the enclosure and thus avoiding the need for traditional hot work permits.
The Panametrics XDP provides long-term, hands-off operation with auto-verification/auto-calibration feature. When initiated, the XDP controls solenoid valves in the sample system to bring zero and span gases to the transmitter. Then the XDP software compares calibration gas readings with factory data to verify proper calibration. If an adjustment is necessary, the XDP makes corrections automatically and notififes the user via the front panel display and alarm contacts.
