2.6 CE conformity
The device fulfills the legal requirements of the applicable EC
guidelines. By affixing the CE marking, we confirm successful testing
of the product.
You can find the conformity ce rtificate in the download section of our
homepage.
2.7 Measuring range - permissible process pres-
sure
Due to the application, a measuring cell with a measuring range higher
than the permissible pressure range of the process fitting may have
been integrated. The permissible process pressure is stated with
"Process pressure" on the type label, see chapter 3.1 "Configuration".
For safety reasons, this range must not be exceeded.
2.8 Safety instructions for Ex areas
Please note the Ex-specific safety information for installation and
operation in Ex areas. These safety instructions are part of the

3.2 Principle of
operation
VEGABAR 17 is a pressure transmitter for measurement of gauge
pressure, absolute pressure or vacuum. Measured products are
gases, vapours and liquids. The front flush versions are also suitable
for use in viscous or contaminated products.
The process pressure acts on the sensor element via the stainless
steel diaphragm. The process pressure causes a resistance change
which is converted into a corresponding output signal and outputted as
measured value.
1)
4 … 20 mA two-wire electronics for voltage supply and measured
value transmission on the same cable.
3.3 Operation
The VEGABAR 17 has no adjustment options.
However, there are two built-in potentiometers for recalibration of zero
and span.
3.4 Packaging, transport and storage
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its
capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test
according to DIN EN 24180.
The packaging of standard instruments consists of environmentfriendly, recyclable cardboard. For special versions, PE foam or PE foil
is also used. Dispose of the packaging material via specialised
recycling companies.
Transport
Transport must be carried out under consideration of the notes on the
transport packaging. Nonobservance of these instructions can cause
damage to the device.
Transport inspection
The delivery must be checked for completeness and possible transit
damage immediately at receipt. Ascertained transit damage or
concealed defects must be appropriately dealt with.
Storage
Up to the time of installation, the packages must be left closed and
stored according to the orientation and storage markings on the
outside.
Unless otherwise indicated, the packages must be stored only under
the following conditions:

4.1 General ins
Make sure that all parts of the instrument exposed to the process, in
particular the sensor element, process seal and process fitting, are
suitable for the existing process conditions. These include above all
the process pressure, process temperature as well as the chemical
properties of the medium.
You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" and on the
type label.
To protect the diaphragm, the process fitting is covered by a protective
cap.
Remove the protective cap just before installation so that the
diaphragm will not get damaged. It is recommended to keep the cap
and use it again later for storage or transport.

For mounting VEGABAR 17, a welded socket is required. You can find
these components in the supplementary instructions manual "Welded
socket and seals".
Use the seal fitting to the instrument, or in case of NPT connections, a
high-resistance sealing material.
Screw VEGABAR 17 into the welded socket with a wrench applied to
the hexagon of the process fitting. For the proper torque see chapter
"Technical data", for spanner size see chapter "Dimensions".

The supply voltage and the current signal are carried on the same twowire connection cable.

VEGA power supply units VEGATRENN 149AEx, VEGASTAB 690,
VEGADIS 371 as well as all VEGAMETs meet this requirement. When
using one of these instruments, protection class III is ensured for
VEGABAR 17.
Keep in mind the following additional factors that influence the
operating voltage:
l Output voltage of the power supply unit can be lower under
l Influence of additional instruments in the circuit (see load values in
The instrument is connected with standard two-wire cable without
screen. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the
test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, screened cable should be
used.
Use cable with round cross-section. A cable outer diameter of 5 … 9 mm
(0.2 … 0.35 in) ensures the seal effect of the cable gland. If you are
using cable with a different diameter or cross-section, exchange the
seal or use a suitable cable gland.
For the version with round plug connector M12 x 1, a suitable, ready-
made connection cable (article no. ASL.1S.) in 5 m, 10 m or 25 m
lengths is available from the line of VEGA accessories.

currents can flow through the cable screen when the screen is
grounded on both ends. To avoid this, the cable screen must be

6.2 Recalibration
With both instruments with thread ring or field housing, zero and span
can be adjusted via integrated potentiometers. Adjustment range:
l Zero ± 5 %
l Span ± 5 %
This allows, for example, the consideration of an installation position
different from the reference installation position.
A shifting of zero shifts span also respectively.

7.2 Remove interferences
The operator of the system is responsible for taking suitable measures
to rectify faults.
VEGABAR 17 offers maximum reliability. Nevertheless, faults can
occur during operation. These may be caused by the following, e.g.:
l Sensor
l Process
l Voltage supply
l Signal processing
The first measure to be taken is to check the output signal. In many
cases, the causes can be determined this way and the faults rectified.
Should these measures not be successful, please call in urgent cases
the VEGA service hotline under the phone no. +49 1805 858550.
The hotline is available to you 7 days a week round-the-clock. Since
we offer this service world-wide, the support is only available in the
English language. The service is free of charge, only the standard
telephone costs will be charged.
