|
3.2 Principle of operation |
Application area |
VEGAMET 391 is a universal signal conditioning instrument for a |
|
variety of applications such as level, gauge and process pressure |
|
measurement. At the same time, it can serve as power supply unit for |
|
connected sensors. VEGAMET 391 is designed for connection of any |
|
4 … 20 mA/HART sensor. |
|
On instruments with one of the optional interfaces (RS232/Ethernet), |
|
the measured values can be retrieved via modem or network and |
|
displayed by means of a web browser or WEB-VV. It is also possible |
|
to send measured values and messages via e-mail/SMS. The use of |
|
VEGAMET 391 is particularly suitable for stocktaking, VMI (Vendor |
|
Managed Inventory) and remote enquiry. |
Functional principle |
The VEGAMET 391 signal conditioning instrument can power the |
|
connected sensor and process its measurement signals. The re- |
|
quested parameter is shown on the display and also outputted to the |
|
integrated current output for further processing. The measurement |
|
signal can thus be transferred to a remote indication or a superordi- |
|
nate control system. Operating relays for control of pumps or other |
|
devices are also integrated. |
Voltage supply |
Wide-range power supply unit with 20 … 253 V AC/DC for world-wide |
|
use. |
|
Detailed information about the power supply can be found in chapter |
|
"Technical data". |
|
|
|
|
The instrument can be adjusted with the following adjustment media: |

||
|
|
|
|
used with PACTware and PC also optionally in the PC. |
||
|
|
|
|

||
|
|
|
|
can be carried out which are not possible or only partly possible with |
||
|
|
|
|
the integrated display and adjustment unit. Communication is carried |
||
|
|
|
|
out via the integrated USB interface or one of the optional interfaces |
||
|
|
|
|
(RS232/Ethernet). |

4 Mounting
Installation possibilities The instrument is designed for recessed installation in an instrument panel, housing front plate or a switching cabinet door. The required cut-out is 92 x 92 mm (3.63 x 3.63 in) according to EN 60529. When installed correctly, protection rating IP 65 is guaranteed. As an alternative, the instrument can be mounted in a switching cabinet or protective housing by means of four screws (fixed with screws on rear of housing). A mounting adapter for carrier rail mounting is available as an option (top hat rail 35 x 7.5 according to DIN EN 50022/60715).
Note:
If the instrument is mounted via the screws or carrier rail, it must
always be inside a switching cabinet or protective case.
A VEGAMET 391 in Ex version is an auxiliary, intrinsically safe instrument and may not be installed in explosion-endangered areas.
Before setup, the Ex separating wall must be attached to Ex versions. Safe operation can only be ensured if the operating instructions manual and the EC type approval certificate are observed.VEGAMET
391 must not be opened.
Front panel mounting 1. Make sure that the cut-out required for mounting has a size of
92 x 92 mm (3.63 x 3.63 in).
2.Check for the correct position of the seal directly behind the front plate and insert the instrument from the front into the front panel cut-out.
3.Press the two tensioning elements into the provided gaps.
4.Screw in the two screws of the tensioning elements evenly with a screwdriver.

5 Connecting to power supply
Note safety instructions Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
•Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage
•If overvoltage surges are expected, overvoltage arresters should be installed
Take note of safety instructions for Ex applications
Select power supply Select connection cable
Cable screening and grounding
Select connection cable for Ex applications
In hazardous areas you must take note of the respective regulations, conformity and type approval certificates of the sensors and power supply units.
The voltage supply can be 20 … 253V AC/DC, 50/60 Hz.
The operating voltage of VEGAMET 391 is connected with standard cable according to the national installation standards.
Standard two-wire cable can be used for connecting the sensors. The screening is absolutely necessary to ensure interference-free operation with HART sensors.
Connect the cable screen on both ends to ground potential. In the sensor, the screen must be connected directly to the internal ground terminal. The ground terminal on the outside of the sensor housing must be connected to the potential equalisation (low impedance).
If potential equalisation currents are expected, the screen connection on the side of VEGAMET 391 must be made via a ceramic capacitor (e. g. 1 nF, 1500 V). The low frequency potential equalisation currents are thus suppressed, but the protective effect against high frequency interference signals remains.
Take note of the corresponding installation regulations for Ex applications. In particular, make sure that no potential equalisation currents flow over the cable screen.In case of grounding on both sides this can be achieved by the use of a capacitor or a separate potential equalisation.
Move on to electrical connection and proceed as follows:
1.Mount the instrument as described in the previous chapter
2.Remove terminal strip 1 on the upper side of the instrument
3.Connect sensor cable to terminal 1/2 (active input) or 5/6 (passive input)
4.If necessary, connect digital inputs to 8 … 12
5.Plug terminal strip 1 to the upper side of the instrument
6.Remove terminal strip 2 on the lower side of the instrument
7.Connect power supply (switched off) to terminal 13/14
8.If necessary, connect relays or other outputs
9.Plug in terminal strip 2 on the lower side of the instrument
VEGAMET 391 • 4 … 20 mA/HART |
13 |
5 Connecting to power supply
10.For connection of additional relais to terminal strip 3, you have to proceed as described earlier
The electrical connection is hence finished.
Remember that with Ex applications, the Ex separating wall must be plugged onto the upper side of the instrument before setup.
Information:
|
|
|
• |
On the active input (terminal 1/2), VEGAMET 391 provides power |
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
for the connected sensors. Power supply and measurement data |
|
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
|
are transmitted over the same two-wire cable. This mode is pro- |
|
|
|
|
vided for connection of measuring transducers without separate |
|
|
|
• |
operating voltage (sensors in two-wire version). |
|
|
|
On the passive input (terminals 5/6), the sensors are not powered |
|
|
|
|
- only the measured value is transmitted. This input is for sensors |
|
|
|
|
|
with their own, separate operating voltage (sensors in four-wire |
|
|
|
|
version). On a VEGAMET 391 in Ex version, the passive input is |
|
|
|
|
not available due approval-technical reasons. |

6.1 Adjustment system |
||||||
Function |
The integrated display and adjustment unit is used for measured |
|||||||
|
|
value display, adjustment and diagnosis of VEGAMET 391. The |
||||||
|
|
indication and adjustment are carried out via four keys and a clear, |
||||||
|
|
graphic-capable display with background lighting. The adjustment |
||||||
|
|
menu with selectable language is clearly structured and enables easy |
||||||
|
|
setup. |
||||||
|
|
Certain adjustment options are not available or only partially available |
||||||
|
|
with the integrated display and adjustment unit, e.g. the settings for |
||||||
|
|
flow measurement.For such applications, the use of PACTware with |
||||||
Display and adjustment |
appropriate DTMs is recommended. |

||
|
|
|
|
6.2 Setup steps |
||
Parameter adjustment |
|
Through parameter adjustment, the instrument is adapted to the indi- |
||||
|
|
|
|
vidual application conditions. A measurement loop calibration is the |
||
|
|
|
|
most important step and should always be carried out. A scaling of |
||
|
|
|
|
the measured value to the desired physical variable and unit, possibly |
||
|
|
|
|
including a linearization curve, is often useful.The adaptation of the |
||
|
|
|
|
relay switching points or the setting of an integration time to smooth |
||
|
|
|
|
the measured value are further standard adjustment options. |
||
|
|
|
|
Instruments with Ethernet interface can be provided with a Host name |
||
|
|
|
|
suitable for the measurement loop. As an alternative to the addressing |
||
|
|
|
|
via DHCP, it is also possible to adjust an IP address and subnet mask |
||
|
|
|
|
suitable for your network. If necessary, the e-mail/Web server can be |
||
|
|
|
|
also configured with PACTware. |
||
|
|
|
|
A setup assistant is available for easy, convenient setup. It guides the |
||
|
|
|
|
user through the standard applications and settings step by step. |
||
|
|
|
|
Information: |
||
|
|
|
|
When using PACTware and the respective DTM, additional settings |
||
|
|
|
|
can be carried out which are not possible or only partly possible with |
||
|
|
|
|
the integrated display and adjustment unit. Communication is carried |
||
|
|
|
|
out via the integrated USB interface or one of the optional interfaces |
||
|
|
|
|
(RS232/Ethernet). |
||
|
|
|
|
Further instructions for setting up the web server and e-mail functions |
||
|
|
|
|
are stated in the online help of PACTware or the VEGAMET 391 DTMs |
||
|
|
|
|
as well as the supplementary instructions manual "RS232/Ethernet |
||
|
|
|
|
connection". |
||
Switch-on phase |
|
After being switched on,VEGAMET 391 first of all carries out a short |
||||
|
|
|
|
self-check. The following steps are carried out: |
||
|
|
|
|
• |
Internal check of the electronics |
|
|
|
|
|
• |
indication of the instrument type, firmware version as well as the |
|
|
|
|
|
instrument TAG (instrument name) |
||
|
|
|
|
• |
The output signals jump briefly to the set fault value |
|
|
|
|
|
Then the current measured values will be displayed and outputted. |
||
Measured value indica- |
|
The measured value indication shows the digitally indicated value, the |
||||
tion |
|
measurement loop name (measurement loop TAG) and the unit. An |
||||
|
|
|
|
analogue bar graph can also be displayed.If flow measurement with |
||
|
|
|
|
totalizer is activated, an additional indication window with totalizer be- |
||
|
|
|
|
comes available. With activated pump control, an additional window |
||
|
|
|
|
for indication of the assigned pumps is available. By pushing the [>] |
||
|
|
|
|
key you can move between the different indication options. |

6 Setup with the integrated display and adjustment unit
→[OK], you move from the measured value indication into the main menu. Here, you have the choice between the setup assistant for the most important settings and the complete classic menu.
Main menu/Setup as- At the beginning of every setup or parameter adjustment, you have sistant the choice of continuing with the setup assistant or the classic menu
guidance. We recommend using the setup assistant for the initial setup. If later on individual settings should be corrected or added, the most expedient way to do this is via the classic menus.
|
→ |
Select the menu item "Setup assistant" with [->] and confirm with |
|
|
|
[OK]. |
|
Setup assistant |
The setup assistant leads you step-by-step through the standard set- |
||
|
tings. The following steps are carried out: |
|
|
|
• |
Device-TAG (individually adjustable instrument name) |
|
|
• |
designation)Measurement loop TAG (individually adjustable measurement loop |
|
|
• |

|
|
• |
Measured variable (for example level or process pressure) |
|
|
• |
Adjustment unit (for example m or bar) |
|
|
• |
Min./Max. adjustment |
|
|
• |
Activation of the fail safe relay |
|
|
• |
