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".

3.3 Adjustment

 

 

 

 

The instrument can be adjusted with the following adjustment media:

 

 

 

 

With integrated display and adjustment unit

 

 

 

 

an adjustment software according to FDT/DTM standard, e.g.

 

 

 

 

 

PACTware and a Windows PC

 

 

 

 

The entered parameters are generally saved in VEGAMET 391, when

 

 

 

 

used with PACTware and PC also optionally in the PC.

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

 

 

can be found in the online help of PACTware or the VEGAMET 391

4.1General instructions

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.

5.1Preparing the connection

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.

5.2Connection procedure

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.

6.2 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

 

Type of input (4 … 20 mA or HART)

 

 

Measured variable (for example level or process pressure)

 

 

Adjustment unit (for example m or bar)

 

 

Min./Max. adjustment

 

 

Activation of the fail safe relay

 

 

Configuration of the relay outputs (e.g.setup of pump control or

 

 

overfill protection)

 

 

Setting Date/Time with option RS232/Ethernet interface

 

 

Network settings with option "Ethernet interface"

 

 

When changing the measurement, the assistant can be called up

 

 

any time. The subsequent steps can also be reached individually via

 

the traditional menu navigation. A description of the individual menu

 

items is available in the traditional menus.In chapter "Application

 

 

examples" you will find further information about setup.

 

Traditional menu naviga-

The main menu is divided into six areas with the following functions:

tion/main menu

Device settings: Includes the device-TAG, settings for network

 

 

connection such as date/time setting, …

 

 

Measurement loop: Includes settings for input selection, adjust-

 

ment, damping, linearization, scaling, outputs, …

 

 

Display: Includes settings for the displayed measured value,

 

 

language und brightness of the background lighting

 

 

Diagnosis Includes information on device status, error messages,

 

 

input current, digital inputs

6 Setup with the integrated display and adjustment unit

Furthersettings: Includes simulation, reset, PIN, sensor address,

Info: Shows serial number, software version, last change, instrument features, MAC addr., …

Select the requested menu item via the respective keys and confirm with [OK].

Device settings - Device- You can assign an unambiguous name to VEGAMET 391 via the TAG Device-TAG. This function is recommended when several instruments

are implemented and a good documentation of larger systems is required.

Carry[OK]. out your settings via the appropriate keys and save with

Device settings - Host For instruments with integrated Ethernet interface, the automatic Name/IP addr. addressing via DHCP is preset, i.e. the IP address must be assigned

by a DHCP server. Generally the instrument is contacted via the Host name. By default, the host name consists of the serial number plus

"VEGA-" in front.As an alternative, it is also possible to enter a static

IP addr. with Subnet mask and optional Gateway addr.

Note:

Keep in mind that your modification will be only effective after a restart ofVEGAMET 391.You can find further information of these network parameters in the supplementary instructions "RS232/Ethernet connection" and in the Online help of the respective DTM.

1.Carry out your settings via the appropriate keys and save with
