Safety instructions
Please check whether this manual corresponds with the device type.
Please attend to all notes indicated in this instruction manual. It contains essential information that has to be followed during installation, operation and maintenance. Therefore, this instruction manual has to be read categorically by the technician as well as by the responsible user/qualified personnel before installation, initiation and maintenance.
This instruction manual has to be available at any time at the operation site of the PI 500. Regional and national regulations respectively, have to be observed in addition to this instruction manual if necessary.
In case of any obscurities or questions with regard to this manual or the instrument please contact CS Instruments GmbH.
Warning! Supply voltage! Contact with supply voltage carrying non-insulated parts may cause an electric shock
with injury and death.
Warning! Inadmissible operating parameters! Undercutting and exceeding respectively of limit values may cause danger to persons
and material and may lead to functional and operational disturbances.
Attention! Malfunctions at the PI 500! Faulty installation and insufficient maintenance may lead to malfunctions of the PI 500
which may affect the measuring results and which may lead to misinterpretations.

Safety Instructions
NOTE!
The plug of the power supply unit (charger) is used as a separator. This separator must be clearly recognisable and easily accessible by the user. A plug
connector with a CEE7/7 system is necessary.
NOTE! Only the supplied power supply may be used.

Application Area
2 Application Area
The new PI 500 is an all-purpose hand-held measuring instrument for many applications in industry Like e.g.:
► Consumption/flow measurement ► Pressure/vacuum measurement ► Temperature measurement ► Moisture/dew point measurement
The 3.5” graphic display with touch screen makes the operation very easy.
The graphic indication of coloured measurement curves is inimitably. Up to 100 million measured valued can be stored with date and name of measuring site. The measured data can be transferred to the computer via USB stick.
The following sensors can be connected to the freely configurable sensor input of PI 500:
Pressure sensors (high and low pressure) Flow sensors, VA 400/420 Temperature sensors Pt 100, 4..20 mA Dew point sensors FA410 / FA415 Effective power meters Optional third-party sensors with the following signals:
0...1/10 V, 0/4...20 mA, Pt100, Pt1000, pulse, Modbus

7.2 Touchpanel
The operation is largely self-explanatory and menu-driven via the touch panel. The selection of the respective menu items occur via short "tapping" with the finger or a soft round pen.
Attention: Please use no pens or other objects with sharp edges! The foil can be damaged!
After sensors are connected, they also have to be configured. Inputs or changes can be made with all white deposit fields.
The measured values can be represented as a curve or values.
Words in green font refer mainly to the pictures in the section of the chapter, but also on important menu paths or menu items that are related to be in green font.
The menu navigation is generally in a green font! The table of contents and chapter references in blue font contain links to the respective chapter title.

Here you adjust the desired Backlight (15-100%) of the display directly.
E.g. Backlight to 50 %
With the help of the Backlight dimming after button, after a definable time interval (here after 15 minutes), the Backlight can be reduced to the minimum. In addition, for a longer battery runtime, the backlight could be switched off completely after the defined time (here 1 minutes) by pressing backlight off after button.
As soon as the dimmed screen is operated again, the Backlight is committed automatically on the last set value before dimming.

Cleaning
Hinweis: Note:
The PI 500 has a cleaning-function which protects the display against unintentional operation in the event of cleaning measures. Please refer to
Chapterl 7.3.2.1.6.
Warning! Damage possible!
A too high degree of humidity and hard and pointed objects, as well as aggressive cleaners, cause damage to the data logger and to the integrated electronic components.
Warning! Battery! The replacement of the battery must only be carried out by authorised and
skilled personnel, and when the device is de-energised. Only the original battery of the manufacturer with built-in protection circuit
may be used
11 Cleaning
Cleaning of the PI 500 must be undertaken using a slightly damp (not wet) cotton cloth or one-way wipe, and mild, commercially available cleaner/soap.
For decontamination, spray the cleaner on an unused cotton cloth or one-way wipe, and wipe the component comprehensively. Perform the final drying with a clean cloth or by air drying.
In addition, the local hygiene provisions need to be observed.
Measures
Never clean with a soaked cloth.
Do not use aggressive cleaners.
Do not use pointed or hard objects for cleaning.
