1.1 Function and configuration
D96 and D97 pressure transmitters are efficient instruments for hydrostatic level measurement. A dry ceramic-capacitive CERTEC
measuring cell is used as the pressure sensor element for D96. D97 uses a dry metalliccapacitive measuring cell with Duratherm 600
diaphragm. The hydrostatic pressure effects
a capacitance change on the diaphragm.
This capacitance change is detected by an
ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit)
and converted into a pressure-proportional
signal by the integrated electronic module
with microcontroller. Precise, high-resolution
digital processing of measurement data
ensures excellent technical data.
The electronics module is powered by a
Profibus DP - PA segment coupler. The
measured pressure is transmitted as a digital
signal via the bus cable to the processing
system and can be displayed on the indicating module.
To improve reliability, the functionality of important electronic components is continuously checked, and internal parameters such
as sensor value, temperature and operating
voltage are closely monitored.
The pressure transmitters D96 with ceramic
CERTEC® measuring cell offer the advantage
of continuous self-monitoring: the measuring
and reference capacitances of the measuring
cell constitute a predefined ratio over the
entire measuring range. Any deviation from
these data is a reliable indicator of a malfunction of the measuring cell. If errors or malfunctions are detected during these routines,
fault signals are triggered according to the
Profibus PA specification.
The pressure transmitter consists of two
parts, the transmitter and the processing
unit. Both parts are connected via a threewire screened cable (depending on the ver-
®
sion, with or without breather capillaries). The
processing unit contains the adjustment
elements (address switch, keys and LCD)
and the terminals for the Profibus PA cable.

2 Mounting
Mounting
2.1 Mounting instructions
The pressure transmitter can be mounted in
any position. Cable entries must point downwards to avoid moisture ingress. For this
purpose, the housing can be rotated by 330°
in relation to the mounting part.
An appropriate connection seal must be
used for mounting. This seal is either supplied with the pressure transmitter or must be
provided by the customer.
2.2 Compensation of the atmospheric pressure
On instruments for gauge pressure measurement, the atmospheric pressure is compensated via a breather facility integrated in
the housing.
Pressure transmitter with housing
- via an integrated breather facility (PTFE
use 1)), protection IP 66
- via the capillaries of a special cable con-
nected to the terminals, protection IP 67
Pressure transmitter with direct cable
outlet
- via the capillaries of a special cable con-
nected to the terminals, protection IP 68
We recommend leading a special cable to
the processing unit and carrying out the
pressure compensation via the integrated
breather facility there.
Processing unit
Observe the following instructions:
- as a rule, there must be the same atmos-
pheric pressure on the breather facility as
on the vessel
- the pressure compensation must be made
in dry environment
- with vertical wall mounting, cable entries
must point downward to avoid moisture
ingress and buildup on the breather facility.

Electrical connection
3 Electrical connection
3.1 Connection instructions
The electronics in pressure transmitter D96/
D97 requires a supply voltage of
9 … 32 V DC. The supply voltage and the
digital output signal are led via the same twowire cable to the terminals. The external energy is provided via a segment coupler.
Note the following instructions for electrical
connection:
- Connection must be made according to the
country-specific installation standards (e.g.
in Germany acc. to the VDE regulations).
- The electrical connection must have a protective measure against polarity reversal.
- The connection of field instruments is generally made via T-adapters on stubs.
- Screened cable is recommended for connection (cable types, see chapter "1.3
Technical data"). The shielding must be
grounded on both ends (on the T-adapter
and on the connection housing of D96/97).
- For use in Ex areas, the installation regulations must be observed.
Safety information for Ex applications
As a rule, do all connecting work in the complete absence of line voltage. Always switch
off the power supply before you carry out
connecting work on the sensors. Protect
yourself and the instruments.
Qualified personnel
Instruments used in Ex areas must be installed only by qualified personnel. The qualified personnel must observe and understand
the mounting regulations and the supplied
type approval and conformity certificates.
If an instrument is used in hazardous areas,
the respective regulations, conformity certificates and type approvals of the sensors,
separators or safety barriers must be noted
(e.g. DIN VDE 0165).
Sensors used in Ex areas must be connected only to intrinsically safe circuits. The
permissible electrical values are stated in the
conformity certificate or the type approval
certificate.
Intrinsically safe circuits with more than one
active instrument (instrument delivering electrical energy) are not allowed. Please note the
special installation regulations (DIN VDE
0165).
Certain pressure transmitters are provided
with a warning label informing of measures to
be taken to avoid the danger of electrostatic
discharge. Note the content of the warning
label.

Setup
4 Setup
4.1 Setting the Profibus PA address
Since each bus participant must have its own
address by which it is identified on the bus,
the address must be adjusted before setup
of the transmitter. Depending on the instrument version, this is done either with the
module "Menu-driven adjustment" or the
address switch.
Address adjustment with the address
switch
Address
12345678
on
off
The transmitter is delivered with the address
set as shown (all switches position "on").
If the mini coding switch is set to address
126 and higher (factory setting), the address
can be modified via software (with VVO).
However, this is only possible if the transmitter is connected as the only participant with
address 126 on the bus. For this reason, we
recommend adjusting the address of the
sensor via the hardware (switch) before
connecting to the bus.
Example:
To select address 37, set switch 1 (value 1),
switch 3 (value 4) and switch 6 (value 32) to
position "on". Set all other switches to position
"off".

measure the volume of a non-linear vessel,
the linearisation curve of the vessel also has
to be programmed into the D96/D97 with the
software VVO). The adjustment "%" enables a
level measurement (also with adjustment). If
only a pressure value should be outputted,
the PA output must be set to "Pressure". An
adjustment is then not possible. Move with
the arrow and "OK" key to the menu item "PA
output", choose there the requested option
with the "+" or "–" key and save with the "OK"
key.
Under "Scaling out." you can modify the
number values (min/max), the position of the
decimal point and the unit (with the "+" or "–"
key the values can be modified, with the "OK"
key the adjustments are saved).

Note:
- A modification of zero does not influence
the adjusted span, i.e. the final value of the
measuring range is shifted.
- Push the "+" and "-" key simultaneously for
standard adjustment of zero/span. The
value jumps directly to 0 %/100 %.
- When pushing the "+" or "–" keys individually, the output signal remains at the last
value; it takes on the adjusted value only
after saving with the "OK" key.
- It is also possible to set values for partial
fillings or partial pressures, e.g. 25 % and
75 %. The pressure transmitter then automatically calculates the values for 0 % or
100 % (only possible with a level difference
>3.3 %).

Setup
Adjustment without taking the current
pressure into account (dry adjustment)
Adjustment without pressure comprises four
steps:
1 Selection of the unit in which the adjustment
is to be carried out
2 Offset correction
3 Adjustment of zero
4 Adjustment of span
The offset correction (only in gauge pressure
mode) defines the reference positions for the
measurement. It can be carried out:
- before or after adjustment of zero and
span
- before or after installation of transmitters.
The transmitter must be unpressurised for
the offset correction!
Adjustment without pressure can be carried
out with the instrument mounted or dismounted (e.g. workroom). Any ambient pressure has no effect on the adjustment.

4.3 Setup with adjustment software VEGA Visual Operating (VVO)
VVO connection to the bus cable
To operate the sensor with the adjustment
software VVO, you require a Profibus DP
interface card (from Messrs. Softing) in your
PC. This card must be used to provide the
connection between computer and Profibus
DP cable (a connection directly to the sensor
or to the Profibus PA cable is not possible).
The computer with VVO then has the status
"Master, class 2".

5.1 Maintenance
Pressure transmitter D96 and D97 are maintenance-free.
5.2 Failure rectification
Fault signals
The pressure transmitter D96/D97 provides
maximum reliability through its self-test and
continuous self-monitoring. If, however, malfunctions occur, the pressure transmitter
D96/D97 diagnosis distinguishes between
atypical process conditions and faults in the
pressure transmitter D96/D97.
Atypical process conditions
Exceeding or falling short of measuring
range limits (fault signal extinguishes when
the measured value is again in the measuring
range).
Failure in the D96/D97 pressure transmitter
Failure in the electronics, interference or
damage in the measuring cell.

Troubleshooting
If the displayed value does not correspond
to the level in the vessel or to the process
pressure, the following measures must be
taken:
- check the pressure compensation (only
with gauge pressure measuring ranges)
- check the electrical connections.
Checking pressure compensation
Open the processing unit of the pressure
transmitter. The measured value must not
change. However, if the displayed value
changes, compensation of the atmospheric
pressure is not ensured, which can result in
distortion of the measured value. Check the
breather on the processing unit.

Removal of the adjustment module
• Separate processing unit from the power
supply.
• Remove the screws on the upper side of
the housing and remove the cover or the
display module.
• Disconnect the cables from the terminals,
and if applicable, pull out the plug connection of the display module.
• Remove the two screws of the adjustment
module.
• Remove adjustment module and pull out
plug connection.
Insertion of an adjustment module
• Plug the plug connection of the new adjustment module into the plug-in socket of
the electronics module.
• Fasten the new adjustment module.
• Reconnect the cables, and if applicable,
also the cable from the display module.
• Replace the cover or the display module
of processing unit.
• Reconnect processing unit to power
supply.
Processing unit
The modular construction of the processing
unit allows retrofitting, interchange and removal of the adjustment modules and the
display module. Data previously saved (e.g.
adjustment values) are not stored in the adjustment module but in an EEPROM of the
electronics module and readjustment is
therefore not necessary. The connection of
the modules is made via a 4-pole plug connection.
