Features
• Very low power consumption, less than 2 mA at
5 Vdc, is perfect for remote sites
• High reference accuracy for DP and pressure
measurements: ±0.075% URL - plus, the
3808 MVT holds this specification over the full
temperature range!
• Excellent DP and pressure measurement over
operating temperature: ±0.21% URL over 60° C
(108° F) combined zero and span effects The Bristol® 3808 MVT P/T version excels
in applications such as ultrasonic meters,
• Excellent DP performance over operating
for which both pressure and tempera-
pressure: ture measurements are very important.
±0.1% URL zero effect
±0.1% Reading span effect over 1000 psi
• Excellent temperature measurement ±0.1° C
• Approved for operation in hazardous areas
– Intrinsically safe, explosion proof and non-
incendive for Class I, Division 1 and Division 2
installations
Typical Applications
• Custody transfer/fiscal metering – DP/
P/T measurement for orifice meters, P/T
measurement for ultrasonic or turbine meters
• Oil or gas wells - flow measurement or meter
corrections
• Coal seam gas wells – measurement at each
orifice or V-cone meter with networking to a
common PLC or RTU
• Injection wells – measurement at both injection
and production meter runs
• Tank farms: level measurement using DP or
pressure and multi-drop networking
• Water distribution and irrigation: flow correction
and reservoir level measurement

Performance
The 3808 MVT has been designed not only to pro-
vide excellent reference accuracy but also excellent
measurement performance over the full range of
operating pressure and temperature conditions.
