ATM/GR analog output versus electronic switching

ATM/GR combines pressure measurement with configurable switching thresholds, a materially different application from a transmitter used only for continuous process monitoring. Determine whether the host expects analog process feedback, a discrete switch signal or both; validate contact type, electrical load, hysteresis and reset behavior using the exact manufacturer ordering code. Controller logic should account for transients and sensor faults, not treat a programmable threshold as an independently rated overpressure safety relief device. The STS ATM/T picture on the site is a related example rather than an exact ATM/GR image. Do not transfer hazardous-area approvals from a differently named transmitter family.

Source and final unit approvals

Use ATM/GR for combined monitoring and supervisory setpoint logic when the host requires a continuous analogue reading and local switch. Set hysteresis, fail-safe state, trip and output electrical contact limits based on the exact STS manual.
