3.1 Mounting and safety instructions
WARNING! Install the device only when depressurized and currentless!
WARNING! This device may only be install ed by qualified technical personnel who has read and under­stood the operating manual!
DANGER! Explosion hazard, with devices for oxygen applications, when used improperly. To ensure a usage without danger, the following points must be adhered to:
- Make sure, your device has been ordered and de­livered as a special version for oxygen applica­tions. You can check the manufacturing label (see figure 1). If the ordering code ends with "007", then the device is suitable for oxygen applications.
- At time of delivery the device is packed into a plas­tic bag in order to prevent it from impurity. Please observe the indication label "Device for oxygen, unpack only directly before assembling". Also, avoid any skin contacts during unpacking and as­sembly, in order to prevent greasy residues on the device.
- During installation, the respective explosion protec­tion regulations have to be met. Check, if ATEX­approval is necessary for this type (oxygen) device. (the delivered device has no ATEX-approval)
- Note the entire design requirements meet the standard demand of BAM (DIN 19247).
- For devices with oxygen capability up to 50 bar, o­rings V747-75 with BAM-approval are being used. The max. capabilities allowed, are 40 bar/130° C and 50 bar/100° C.
- For devices with oxygen capability over 50 bar, o­rings FKM 90 are being used. These have been tested up to 95° C and 215 bar in the scientific coal research institute in Ostrava – CZ.
!
Handle this high-sensitive electronic precision measuring device with care, both in packed and unpacked condition!
!
There are no modifications/changes to be made on the device.
!
Do not throw the package/device!
!
To avoid damaging the diaphragm, remove packaging and protective cap only directly before starting up the device. A delivered protective cap must be stored!
!
Place the protective cap on the pressure port again immediately after disassembling.
!
Handle the unprotected diaphragm very carefully - it is very sensitive and may be easily damaged.
!
Do not use any force when installing the device to pre­vent damage of the device and the plant!
!
For installations outdoor and in damp areas following these instructions:
- To prevent moisture admission in the plug the de­vice should be installed electrically after mounting, at once. Otherwise a moisture admission has to be blocked e.g. by using a suitable protection cap. (The ingress protection in the data sheet is valid for the connected device.)
- Choose an assembly position, which allows the flow-off of splashed water and condensation. Avoid permanent fluid at sealing surfaces!
- When using a cable gland device, turn the outgoing cable downwards. If the cable has to be turned upwards, then point it downward so the moisture can drain.
- Install the device in such a way that it is protected from direct solar irradiation. Direct solar irradiation can lead to the permissible operating temperature being overstepped in the worst case. By this the operability of the device can be affected or dam­aged. If the internal pressure i ncreases due to so­lar irradiation, measurement errors may be caused.
!
For devices with gauge reference in the housing (small hole next to the electrical connection), install the device in such a way, that the gauge reference is protected from dirt and moisture. Should the device be exposed to fluid admission, the functionality will be blocked by the gauge reference. An exact measurement in this condi­tion is not possible. Furthermore this can lead to dam­ages on the device.
Take note that no assembly stress occurs at the pressure port, since this may cause a shifting of the characteristic curve. This is especially important for very small pressure ranges as well as for devices with a pressure port made of plastic.
In hydraulic systems, position the device in such a way that the pressure port points upward (ventilation).
Provide a cooling line when using the device in steam piping.
If installing the device outdoor and there is any danger of lightning or overpressure we suggest putting a overpressure protection unit between the supply/switch cabinet and the device to prevent damage.
3.2 General installation steps
- Carefully remove the pressure measuring device from the package and dispose of the package properly.
- Go ahead as detailed in the specific instructions below.
3.3 Installation steps for DIN 3852
- Check to ensure the proper groove fitting of the o-ring and additionally to ensure no damage to the o-ring.
- Ensure that the sealing surface of the taking part is perfectly smooth and clean.
- Screw the device into the corresponding thread by hand.
- If you have a device with a knurled ring, the transmitter has to be screwed in by hand only.
- Devices with a spanner flat have to be fully tightened with an open-end wrench (wrench size of steel: G1/4": approx. 5 Nm; G1/2": approx. 10 Nm; G3/4": approx. 15 Nm; G1": approx. 20 Nm; wrench size of plastic: max. 3 Nm).
3.4 Installation steps for EN 837
- Use a suitable seal, corresponding to the medium and the pressure input (e. g. a cooper gasket).
- Ensure that the sealing surface of the taking part is perfectly smooth and clean.
- Screw the device into the corresponding thread by hand.
- Tighten it with a wrench (for G1/4": approx. 20 Nm; for G1/2": approx. 50 Nm).
3.5 Installation steps for NPT

- Put the seal onto the corresponding mounting part.
- Centre the Clamp or Variventconnection on the fitting counterpart with seal.
- Then fit the device with a suitable fastening element (e. g. semi-ring or retractable ring clamp) according to the supplier’s instructions.
3.8 Positioning of the display module
The display and operating module is continuously rotatable so that clear readability i s guaranteed even in unusual installation positions. To change the position, go ahead as follows:
- Screw off the metal cap by hand.
- Turn the display and operating module carefully into the desired position by hand. The module is equipped with a rotational limiter.
- Before screwing on the cap again, the o-ring and seal­ing surfaces of the housing have to be checked for damage and if necessary have to be changed!
- Afterwards screw the metal cap on by hand and make sure that the housing is firmly locked again.
!
Pay attention that no moisture can enter the device. Moreover, the seals and the sealing surfaces should not get dirty, as this may cause a reduction of the degree of protection depending on the case of application or place of installation. This can lead to a breakdown of the de­vices or to irreparable damages on the device.

6. Operation
6.1 Operating and display elements
LED contact 1
-button -button
Fig. 2 touchpad for device with two contacts
The device has, according to the order max. two LEDs which are allocated to the resp. contacts. The LEDs will light up when the respective set point has been reached and the contact is active. The display of the measured value as well as the configuration of the individual parameters occurs menu-driven via the seven-segment display.
6.2 Configuration
The menu system is a closed system allowing you to scroll both forward and backward through the individual set-up menus to navigate to the desired setting item. All settings are permanently stored in an EEPROM and therefore available again even after disconnecting from the supply voltage. The structure of the menu system is the same for all types of devices, regardless of the number of contacts. However, they only differ by the number of menus. Following figure and the menu list shows all possible menus. On devices with 3-wire output 4 ... 20 mA and 0 ... 20 mA, the menus ZP and EP have special functions. The menu DP is not applied, as the decimal point is already factory set during production.

Please follow the manual meticulously and remember that changes of the adjustable parameters (switch-on point, switch-off point, etc.) become only effective after pushing both buttons simultaneously and leaving the menu item.
!
Pay attention that no moisture can enter the device during configuration. Moreover, the seals and the seal­ing surfaces should not get dirty, as this may cause a reduction of the degree of protection depending on the case of application or place of installation. This can lead to a breakdown of the device or to irreparable damages on the device. Right after configuration, the metal cap has to be screwed on again.
6.3 Password system
To avoid a configuration by unauthorized persons, the possibility is given to lock the device by an access protection. More information is given in menu 1 of the menu list.
6.4 Configuration example of the analogue output for 3-wire devices
By the menus ZP and EP, the analogue output for 3-wire devices (4...20 mA and 0...20 mA) can be configured. In the following, the function of these menus shall be made clear by an example: assuming you have a pressure switch with a nominal pressure range 0 ... 400 bar with an analogue signal of 4...20 mA / 3-wire. By factory the following performance is set:
0 bar = 4.00 mA 200 bar = 12.00 mA 400 bar = 20 mA If you change the value in the menu ZP from 0 to 20 and the
value in the menu EP from 400 to 300, the following per­formance will appear:
20 bar = 4.00 mA 160 bar = 12.00 mA 300 bar = 20 mA
The values of ZP and EP are adjustable up to 1:6 of the nominal pressure range.
6.5. Description of hysteresis and compare mode
To invert the respective modes, you have to exchange the values for the switch-on and switch-off points.

no configuration is possible
menu 2b – indication of the end point, which was defined with the order (only 3-wire-system)
no configuration is possible
the device has been configured correctly before delivery, so a later setting of a 2-wire device is only necessary, if a differing displayed value is desired (e. g. 0 ... 100 %)
For devices with 3-wire output 4 ... 20 mA and 0 ... 20 mA this menu has a different meaning: The configura­tion of the zero point causes a changing of the analogue output, whereas the display value remains un­changed. (zero and end point can be configured within the limits of the nominal pressure range, according to the manufacturing label); for more information see "6.4 Configuration example of the analogue output for 3­wire-devices"
this function allows getting a constant display value although the measuring values may vary considerably; the time constant for a simulated low-pass filter can be set (0.3 up to 30 sec permissible)
set "on" or "off"
set the particular values, for the activation of contact 1 (S1on) or 2 (S2on)
set the particular values, for the deactivation of contact 1 (S1oF) or 2 (S2oF)
select the hysteresis mode (HY 1/2) or compare mode (CP 1/2) for the contacts 1 or 2 (no. corresponds to the contact)
compare "6.5. Description of hysteresis and compare mode"
set the particular value of the switch-on delay after reaching contact 1 (d1on) or 2 (d2on) (0 up to 100 sec permissible)
set the particular value of the delay after reaching the switch-of point 1 (d1oF) or 2 (d2oF) (0 up to 100 sec permissible)
view high pressure (HIPr) or low pressure (LoPr) during the measurement process (the value will not remain stored if the power supply is interrupted)
to erase: push both buttons again within one second
set the length of the update cycles for the display (0.0 up to 10 sec permissible)
with the - or -button the contacts 1 (tES1) or 2 (tES2) can be activated or deactivated
select one of the following settings: "oi 4" (4 mA or 2 V), "oi12" (12 mA or 6 V) and "oi20" (20 mA or 10 V)
(to access a special menu, select the menu item "PAof" with the - or -button and confirm it; "1" appears in the display)
set the desired error signal (this is given out in case of a defect); permissible settings are "OFF" (no error signal output), "C 0" (0 mA or 0 V), "C L0" (3.5 mA or 1.75 V) and "C HI" (23 mA or 11.5 V)
an output of the error signal is only given when menu 6 is set on "on"
confirm menu item "P0SI"; if offset ambient pressure it is necessary to place the device under pressure (pressure reference has to corresponding to the zero point of the pressure measuring range); push both buttons to store the signal being emitted from the pressure switch as offset; in the display the set zero point will appear although the sensor signal in the offset is displaced
a position correction is necessary, if the installation position differs from the calibration position (otherwise this can cause a little deviation of the signal, which gives a wrong value indication)
the analogue output signal (for devices with analogue output) is not affected by this change; when displacing the offset, the full scale will also be displaced
to load the defaults, push both buttons simultaneously, after confirming the menu item
any changes carried out will be reset (password will be set on "0005")
to load a stored configuration (via menu 39), set the desired number 1 up to 5
to store a configuration, set the desired number 1 up to 5
for full scale compensation, which is necessary if the indicated value for full scale differs from the real full scale value in the application (a compensation is only possible with a respective reference source, if the deviation of the measured value is within defined limits); set "0238"; confirm with both buttons; "FS S" will appear in the display; now it is necessary to place the device under pressure (the pressure must correspond to the end point of the pressure measuring range); push both buttons, to store the signal being emitted from the pressure switch as full scale; in the display the set end point will appear although the full scale sensor signal is displaced.
the analogue output signal (for devices with analogue output) is not affected by this change
set "0247"; the menu description is identical with menu "P0SI" (menu 24) for 3-wire-devices
set "0729"; the menu description is identical with menu "FAct" (menu 25) for 3- wire-devices
set "0835"; confirm with both buttons; "SEtP" appears in the display; set the password using the - or -button (0 ... 9999 are permissible, the code numbers 0238, 0247, 0729, 0835 are exempt); confirm the password by pushing both buttons simultaneously
7. Placing out of service
WARNING! When dismantling the device, it must always be done in the depressurized and currentless condition! Check also if the medium has to be drained off before dismantling!
WARNING! Depending on the medium, it may cause danger for the user. Comply therefore with adequate precautions for purification.
8. Maintenance
In principle, this device is maintenance-free. If desired, the housing of the device can be cleaned when switched of using a damp cloth and non-aggressive cleaning solutions.
Depending on the measuring medium, however, the dia­phragm may be polluted or coated with deposit. If the me­dium is known for such tendencies, the user has to set appropriate cleaning intervals. After placing the device out of service correctly, the diaphragm can usually be cleaned carefully with a non-aggressive cleaning solution and a soft brush or sponge. If the diaphragm is calcified, it is recom­mended to send the device to BD SENSORS for decalcifica­tion. Please read therefore the chapter “Service/Repair” below.
!
An incorrect cleaning can cause irreparable damages on diaphragm. Never use spiky objects or pressured air for cleaning the diaphragm.
9. Service / Repair
9.1 Recalibration
During the life-time of the device, the value of offset and span may shift. As a consequence, a deviating signal value in reference to the nominal pressure range starting point or end point may be transmitted. If one of these two phenom­ena occurs after prolonged use, a recalibration is recom­mended to ensure furthermore high accuracy.
9.2 Return
Before every return of your device, whether for recalibration, decalcification, modifications or repair, it is necessary to contact us to ensure a fast handling of your request. Please inform us by sending an email to: return@bdsensors.de. Include the number of devices sent and request a RMA.
