2Shutoff device
Pressure measurement in vapors
For pressure measurement in vapors, use a siphon. The siphon reduces the temperature to
almost ambient temperature. Preferably mount the device with the shutoff device and
siphon below the tapping point.
Advantage:
• defined water column causes only minor/negligible measuring errors and
• only minor/negligible heat effects on the device.
Mounting above the tapping point is also permitted.
Note the max. permitted ambient temperature of the transmitter!
Take the influence of the hydrostatic water column into consideration.

Operation optionsCeraphant PTP31B, PTP33B
7 Operation options
7.1 Operation with an operating menu
7.1.1 Operating concept
Operation with an operating menu is based on an operation concept with "user roles" .
User roleMeaning
Operator
(display level)
Maintenance
(user level)
Operators are responsible for the devices during normal "operation". This is usually limited to
reading process values either directly at the device or in a control room. Should an error occur,
these users simple forward the information on the errors but do not intervene themselves.
Service engineers usually work with the devices in the phases following device commissioning.
They are primarily involved in maintenance and troubleshooting activities for which simple
settings have to be made at the device. Technicians work with the devices over the entire life
cycle of the product. Thus, commissioning and advanced settings and configurations are some
of the tasks they have to carry out.
7.2 Structure of the operating menu
The menu structure has been implemented according to VDMA 24574-1 and
complemented by Endress+Hauser-specific menu items.

7.3 Operation with local display
7.3.1 Overview
A 1-line liquid crystal display (LCD) is used for display and operation. The local display
shows measured values, fault messages and information messages and therefore supports
the user through each operating step.
The display is fixed to the housing and the values can be rotated electronically by 180° (see
parameter description for "DRO" → 62). This ensures optimum readability of the local
display and allows the device to be mounted upside down also.
During measuring operation, the display shows measured values, fault messages and
notice messages. In addition, it is possible to switch to menu mode via the operating keys.

Prerequisite:
This is a theoretical calibration, i.e. the pressure values for the lower and upper range are
known. It is not necessary to apply pressure.
Due to the orientation of the device, there may be pressure shifts in the measured

PrerequisiteAn offset is possible (parallel shifting of the sensor characteristic) to correct the
orientation and any zero point drift. The set value of the parameter is subtracted from the
"raw measured value". The requirement to be able to perform a zero point shift without
changing the span is met with the offset function.
Maximum offset value = ± 20 % of the sensor nominal range.
If an offset value is entered that shifts the span beyond the physical limits of the sensor,
the value is admitted but a warning message is generated and shown on the display. The
warning message only disappears when the span is within the sensor limits, taking the
offset value currently configured into consideration.
The sensor can
• be operated in a physically unfavorable range, i.e. outside its specifications, or
• be operated by making appropriate corrections to the offset or span.

Example 1• Measured value = 2.2 mbar (0.033 psi)
• You use the "GTZ" parameter to correct the measured value with the value, e.g.
2.2 mbar (0.033 psi). This means that you are assigning the value 0 mbar (0 psi) to the
pressure present.
• Measured value (after pos. zero adjust) = 0 mbar (0 psi)
• The current value is also corrected.

• Measured value = 0.08 bar (1.2 psi)
• You use the "GTZ" parameter to correct the measured value with the value, e.g.
0.08 bar (1.2 psi). This means that you are assigning the value 0 mbar (0 psi) to the

• Measured value (after pos. zero adjust) = 0 mbar (0 psi)
• The current value is also corrected.
• Warnings C431 or C432 appear because the value 0 bar (0 psi) was assigned to the real

8.6 Configuring process monitoring
To monitor the process, it is possible to specify a pressure range which is monitored by the
limit switch. Depending on the device version, the process can be monitored using one PNP
switch output, or optionally using a second PNP switch output or an analog 4 to 20 mA
output. Both monitoring versions are described below. The monitoring function allows the
user to define optimum ranges for the process (with high yields etc.) and deploy limit
switches to monitor the ranges.
8.6.1 Digital process monitoring (switch output)
It is possible to select defined switch points and switchback points which act as NO or NC
contacts depending on whether a window function or hysteresis function is configured

8.6.2 Analog process monitoring (4 to 20 mA output)
• The 3.8 to 20.5 mA signal range is controlled according to NAMUR NE 43.
• The alarm current and current simulation are exceptions:
– If the defined limit is exceeded, the device continues measuring in a linear fashion.
The output current increases linearly up to 20.5 mA and holds the value until the
measured value drops below 20.5 mA again or the device detects an error .
– If the defined limit is undershot, the device continues measuring in a linear fashion.
The output current decreases linearly to 3.8 mA and holds the value until the
measured value rises above 3.8 mA again or the device detects an error .
8.7 Functions of switch output
The switch output can be used for two-point control (hysteresis) or for monitoring a
process pressure range (window function).

electrical signal change takes place at the switch output.
The difference between the value of the switch point "SP1/SP2" and the switchback point
"RP1/RP2" is known as the hysteresis.
Prerequisite• These functions are only available if the hysteresis function has been defined for the

9.3 Behavior of the device in the event of a fault
The device displays warnings and faults on the local display and indicates them via the
status LEDs. All the device warnings and faults are for information purposes only and do
not have a safety function. The errors diagnosed by the device are shown on the local
display in accordance with NE107. In accordance with the diagnostic message, the device
behaves as per a warning or fault condition. It is necessary to distinguish between the
following types of errors here:
• Warning:
– The device continues measuring if this type of error occurs. The output signal is not
affected (exception: simulation is active).
– The local display alternates between the warning and the main measured value.
– The switch outputs remain in the state defined by the switch points.
– Status LED flashes red.
– The background remains white in the event of a warning
• Fault:
– The device does not continue measuring if this type of error occurs. The output signal
adopts its fault state (value in the event of an error - see the following section).
– The fault state is indicated on the local display.
– The switch outputs assume the "opened" state.
– For the analog output option, an error is signaled with the configured alarm current
behavior.
9.4 Response of output to errors
The response of the output to error is regulated in accordance with NAMUR NE43.
42Endress+Hauser
Page 43
Ceraphant PTP31B, PTP33BDiagnostics and troubleshooting
The behavior of the current output in case of fault is defined by the following parameters:
• FCU "MIN": Lower alarm current (≤3.6 mA) (optional, see the following table)→ 58
• FCU "HLD" (HOLD): Last measured current value is held. When the device starts, the
current output is set to "Lower alarm current" (≤3.6 mA). → 58
• The selected alarm current is used for all errors.
• Errors and warning messages are displayed only on the primary value page
(topmost display level) and are not displayed in the operating menu.
• In the operating menu the error is only indicated by the color of the display
background.
• The status LED always indicates an error.
• It is not possible to acknowledge errors and warnings. The relevant message
disappears if the event is no longer pending.

In the case of incorrect entries, the value entered is not accepted. No fault or warning is
issued in this case. The value to be adjusted cannot be changed to a value outside the
specified limit. This makes it impossible to configure the device using incorrect values. An
exception to this is the configuration of the span, which results in a violation of the turn
down, which in turn gives rise to a fault state.

DescriptionThe device displays warnings and faults. This is done on the local display via the diagnostic
message stored in the device. The purpose of all device diagnostics is solely to provide
information to the user; they do not have a safety function. The errors diagnosed by the
Ceraphant are shown on the display in accordance with NE107. In accordance with the
diagnostic message, the device behaves as per a warning or fault condition:
Warning (S971, S140, C485, C431, C432):
With this type of error, the device continues to measure. The output signal does not adopt
its fault state (value in the event of an error). The local display alternates (0.5 Hz) between
the main measured value and the state in the form of the letter plus a defined number.
The switch outputs remain in the state defined by the switch points. The status LED
flashes red in addition to the display output.
Fault (F437, S803, F270, S510, C469, F804):
With this type of error, the device does not continue to measure. The output signal adopts
its fault state (value in the event of an error). The fault state is shown on the local display
in the form of the letter plus a defined number. In the case of devices with 2 outputs, the
display alternates (0.5 Hz) between the error display and the channel assignment (OuX).
The switch outputs assume the defined state (open). For the analog output option, an
error is also signaled and transmitted via the 4 to 20mA signal. In NE43, NAMUR defines

ZRO manual position adjustment (typically for absolute pressure sensor)
NavigationEF → ZRO
DescriptionThe pressure resulting from the orientation of the device can be corrected here.
The pressure difference between zero (set point) and the measured pressure must be
known.
PrerequisiteAn offset is possible (parallel shifting of the sensor characteristic) to correct the
orientation and any zero point drift. The set value of the parameter is subtracted from the
"raw measured value". The requirement to be able to perform a zero point shift without
changing the span is met with the offset function.
Maximum offset value = ± 20 % of the sensor nominal range.
If an offset value is entered that shifts the span beyond the physical limits of the sensor,
the value is admitted but a warning message is generated and shown on the display. The
warning message only disappears when the span is within the sensor limits, taking the
offset value currently configured into consideration.
The sensor can
• be operated in a physically unfavorable range, i.e. outside its specifications, or
• be operated by making appropriate corrections to the offset or span.
Raw measured value – (manual offset) = display value (measured value)
Example• Measured value = 2.2 mbar (0.033 psi)
• Set the measured value in the parameter to 2.2.
• Measured value (after position adjustment) = 0.0 mbar
• The current value is also corrected.
NoteSetting in increments of 0.1. As the value is entered numerically, the increment depends
on the measuring range

The sensor can
• be operated in a physically unfavorable range, i.e. outside its specifications, or
• be operated by making appropriate corrections to the offset or span.
Raw measured value – (manual offset) = display value (measured value)
Example 1• Measured value = 2.2 mbar (0.033 psi)
• You use the "GTZ" parameter to correct the measured value with the value, e.g.
2.2 mbar (0.033 psi). This means that you are assigning the value 0 mbar (0 psi) to the
pressure present.
• Measured value (after pos. zero adjust) = 0 mbar (0 psi)
• The current value is also corrected.
• If necessary, check and correct switch points and span settings.
Example 2Sensor measuring range: –0.4 to +0.4 bar (–6 to +6 psi) (SP1 = 0.4 bar (6 psi); STU =
0.4 bar (6 psi))
• Measured value = 0.08 bar (1.2 psi)
• You use the "GTZ" parameter to correct the measured value with the value, e.g.
0.08 bar (1.2 psi). This means that you are assigning the value 0 mbar (0 psi) to the
pressure present.
• Measured value (after pos. zero adjust) = 0 mbar (0 psi)
• The current value is also corrected.
• Warnings C431 or C432 appear because the value 0 bar (0 psi) was assigned to the real
value of 0.08 bar (1.2 psi) present and the sensor measuring range was thus exceeded
by ± 20%.
SP1 and STU values must be readjusted downwards by 0.08 bar (1.2 psi).

measuring specification)
15.5.2 Pressure specifications
WARNING
L
The maximum pressure for the measuring device depends on the lowest-rated
element with regard to pressure.
For pressure specifications, see the "Measuring range" section and "Mechanical
‣
construction" section in the Technical Information.
The Pressure Equipment Directive (2014/68/EU) uses the abbreviation "PS". The
‣
abbreviation "PS" corresponds to the MWP (maximum working pressure) of the
measuring device.
MWP (maximum working pressure): The MWP (maximum working pressure) is
‣
specified on the nameplate. This value is based on a reference temperature of
+20 °C (+68 °F) and may be applied to the device for an unlimited period of time.
Observe the temperature dependency of the MWP.
OPL (over pressure limit): The test pressure corresponds to the over pressure limit of
‣
the sensor and may only be applied temporarily to ensure that the measurement is
within the specifications and no permanent damage develops. In the case of sensor
range and process connections where the over pressure limit (OPL) of the process
connection is smaller than the nominal value of the sensor, the device is set at the
factory, at the very maximum, to the OPL value of the process connection. If you want
to use the entire sensor range, select a process connection with a higher OPL value.
