SENSOR ASSEMBLY
Using the sensor assembly, integrated in the instru-
ment package is the easiest implementation for a
single meter run; however, the standard application
program also allows use of external transmitters,
with or without the integrated sensor assembly.

Bristol’s DP/P Multivariable (MVT) Sensor Assembly
Most two-run systems use the integrated sensor
assembly for the rst run and an external, smart
multivariable transmitter, such as the Bristol 3808
MVT (which includes the exact same sensor assem-
bly), for the second meter run.
If the sensor assembly requires a repair, the user
can change it out and continue operating with the
electronics, including ow information, alarms and
historical archives, all intact.
Emerson recommends that users practice “depot
level” service, in other words, that the sensor as-
sembly be removed and replaced at the shop rather
than out at the site.
Each sensor assembly has a nine-digit part number,
which can be used to specify a replacement part
(a listing is included at the end of this product data
document).
