3. Product Description and Functions

3.1. Schematic Diagram

3.2. Principles of Operation

The measuring system consists of two encapsulated and hydraulically coupled metal diaphragm. When subjected to pressure it causes a deflection proportional to the strength of pressure. Opposite of the medium-touched diaphragm a tappet returns the deflection to a motion work and the operating elements of the micro switches.
When subjected to excessive pressure each metal dia­phragm based oneself on the chassis of the capsule. Therefore the device is prevented from damage.

4. Installation

The instrument is intended for pipe mounting by KF10 small flange pipe connection per DIN 28403 / ISO 2861. The instrument is factory calibrated while mounted up­right, pressure port downward and must be mounted that way.

2. Intended Applications

Overpressure and vacuum proof contact pressure gauge for control and supervising purposes in vacuum proces­ses.
The product must be used only for applications and under conditions specified by Fischer Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH.
Please confer with Fischer Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH prior to using this instrument along with polluted or aggressive media. For use with this media it needs to be adapted in every part with direct contact to the media.
To ensure safety during installation and maintenance in­tegrate adequate shut-off valves. By recommended accessories the instrument can be
depressurized or shut down,
cut off a plant to enable controlling or repairing,
operational checked on site.

Only qualified technicians authorized for this type of
work should undertake installation.
Only for intended mechanical process connection.
Ensure that process equipment and pressure lines
are at atmospheric pressure before making pressure connections.
The instrument should be provided with suitable pro-
tection against pressure surges (e.g., snubber or pulsation damper).
Ensure that the mechanical configuration and mate-
rials of construction of the instrument are compatible with the process media.
Ensure that process pressure is always less than the
specified safe pressure rating.

4.2. Electrical Connection

Only qualified technicians authorized for this type of
work should undertake installation.
Switch off electrical power to the plant before attempt-
ing electrical installation work of any kind.
Electrical connections must comply with relevant in-
ternational, national and local regulations and norms relating to electrical and instrumentation installations.

5.2. Adjustment of Zero Point

Vent pressure lines to atmosphere.
Remove cover.
Set measuring indicator to zero by zero point adjust­ment screw (see 5.3.).
Mount cover.
5.3. Location of Zero Point Adjustment Screw and
Setting of Switching Points
Make electrical connections to the instrument through a suitable fuse.

5. Commissioning

Power supply and signal cabling as well as process connections to the instrument must be correctly se­lected to meet operational requirements, and installed in a way that does not cause physical stress to the instrument.
The pressure line must have a downward gradient throughout, from the pressure instrument to the pro­cess vessel / pipe. This is to prevent formation of air / gas pockets (for liquid applications) and liquid plugs (for air / gas applications). If this continuous down­ward gradient cannot be provided for any reason, then suitable water and / or air separation devices must be inserted in the pressure line.
The instrument and lines must be protected against frost when used with water.
The pressure line must be kept as short as possible and must not have short bends to avoid measurement errors induced by pressure line delays.
Carefully check the pressure-tightness of pressure connection before start-up.

5.1. Pressure Connection

Pressure connection must be installed in a way that does not cause physical stress to the instrument.

5.4. Setting of Switching Points

Unscrew plugs from cover.
Set desired switching points according to marks on reference value scale by screwdriver. Achievable accuracy: 5% FS. More exact settings can be achie­ved by using accessories like testing manometer, ohmmeter on site or ex factory.
Screw plugs in.

6. Maintenance

The instrument is inherently maintenance-free.
However, to ensure reliable operation and maximize the operating life of the instrument, it is recommended that the instrument, its external electrical and process connections and external connected devices be regularly inspected, e.g.:
Check the display.
Check the switching output connections and external devices that are connected to these.
Check all pressure connections for leak-tightness.
Check the integrity of all electrical connections of the instruments.
Inspection and test schedules depend on operating and site conditions. The operating manuals of other equipment to which the instrument is connected must be read tho­roughly to ensure that all of them work correctly when con­nected together.

7. Transport

The product must be protected against shock and vibra­tion during transport. It must therefore be properly packed, preferably in the original factory packaging, whenever it is to be transported.

8. Service

Any defective devices or devices with missing parts should be returned to Fischer Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH. For quick service contact our service department.
Remaining medium in and on dismantled measuring instruments may cause danger to persons, environment and equipment. Take reasonable precautions! Clean the instrument thoroughly if necessary.
