1. Safety instructions / 2. Testing the display
1. Safety instructions
The appropriate national safety regulations (i.e. VDE 0100 /
EN 837-2) must be observed when installing, commissioning and
GB
!
Caution
Only appropriately qualified personnel should work on these instruments
Pressure gauges may only be removed once they are free from pressure
Any residual pressure medium contained in the pressure element may be
hazardous or toxic. This should be taken into account when handling and
storing pressure gauges which have been removed.
Serious injuries and/or damage can occur should the appropriate regulations
not be observed
operating these instruments.
2. Testing the display
Basic testing principles
The accuracy class is tested in accordance with EN 837
The display is always tested in accordance with the operational error limit
The test is carried out with rising and falling pressure. With gauges that have
a free zero point the lower limit and the upper limit of the scale range are
used as the measuring points.
The pressure gauge used as a measuring standard must be at least four
times as accurate as the device to be tested:
e.g.: Device under test = Class 1.6
The measured values indicated are recorded after gently knocking on the
case
For pressure gauges with electrical alarm contacts, the set point indicator(s)
should be set so that any load on the actual value pointer is eliminated as
far as possible. The test of the scale range when the alarm contacts are
change-over contacts is carried out with the contacts at 12 o‘clock (both
contact arms load the actual value pointer).

Class 1.0 (error limit = 1.0 %)
Permissible deviation: = ± 0,26 bar

2.1 Process for display testing
The accuracy class is always determined at the reference standard, i.e. the
measuring point to be tested must be generated at the test specimen and the
deviation of the value measured at the measuring point is to be recorded from
at the reference standard.
The following test features must always be tested prior to the actual display
testing:
Pointer movement (smooth)
Zero error (after running through the entire scale range)
Static pressure test (differential pressure gauges) with a pressure load of the
max. overload capacity:
The zero error must not exceed the operational error limit.
Free movement of the pointer beyond the upper limit of the scale range,
however up to a max. of the 6 o'clock position.

3. Testing of switch contacts
Basic testing principles
The correct pin assignment and the permissible contact rating must be taken
from the product label on the exterior of the housing.
Versions
Switch contacts are classified as follows:
Sliding contacts Model 811
Magnetic snap-action contacts Model 821
Inductive contacts Model 831
Fail-safe inductive contacts Model 831 SN and 831 S1N
(special designs)
The design and construction of these switch contacts and their function are
described in Data Sheet AC 08.01 "Electrical Switch Contacts".
Contact function index
The contact function is indicated in the clockwise direction of the instrument
pointer rotation. The contact function is indicated by a code to the right of the
full stop which follows the respective model code, e.g. 821.2. The contact type
(single - double - triple contact) can be seen from the number of indices which
follow the corresponding model code, e.g. 821.212 = triple inductive contact.

3. Testing of switch contacts
Meaning of the codes
Index 1: Contact makes when the instrument pointer approaches
the set point in a clockwise direction
Index 2: Contact breaks when the instrument pointer approaches
the set point in a clockwise direction
Index 3: Contact breaks one circuit and makes a second circuit when the
⇒ NO contact
⇒ NC contact
instrument pointer approaches the set point in clockwise
direction
⇒ SPDT contact. (not with Model 831)
Example of the contact model, contact type and function index
Model 821. 2 1 2 means:
821. = Magnetic snap-action contact
2 1 2 = Triple inductive contact (because of 3 digits)
2 = 1
1 = 2
2 = 3
st
contact breaks when pointer reaches set point (NC)
nd
contact makes when pointer reaches set point (NO)
rd
contact breaks when pointer reaches set point (NC)
Contact accuracy
The accuracy of the contacts is tested in accordance with EN 837 and DIN
16 085. The contacts are generally tested in ranges of 25 %, 50 % and 75 %
of the full scale value, provided that no other values or switching points are
specified.
GB
Error limits
The deviation of the switching point from the set limit value must not exceed
the 1.5-fold value of the error limit of the pressure gauge.
The switching hysteresis may be:
With sliding contacts: max. 1 %
With magnetic snap-action contacts: between 2 % and 5 %
With inductive contacts: max. 1 %
of the measuring span.

The design and construction of the transmitters and their function is described
in Data Sheet AC 08.02 "Transmitters to combine with pressure gauges" and
the operating instructions are included with the instrument.
Connection details

Clip 1: Earth power supply / earth signal
Clip 2: Power supply 14 ... 30 V
Clip 3: Test plus
Clip 4: Signal plus / test minus
Accuracy of the output signal
The accuracy of the output signal is stated with reference to the measuring
span, e.g.:
Output signal: 0 ... 20 mA Measuring span: 20 mA
Output signal: 4 ... 20 mA Measuring span: 16 mA
Model 891.34
For the permissible error limits the accuracy class of the base instrument
applies, e.g.:
Base instrument: Class 1.5 Permissible deviation: ±1.6 %
Output signal: 4 ... 20 mA Measuring span: 16 mA
Permissible deviation of the output signal: = ± 0.256 mA
10 x 1.6
100
Please note:
With regard to the measuring error the transmitter should always to be considered separately, i.e. the measurement error of the output signal must always
be separately tested in comparison with the reference standard.
5. Repairs
Repairs are only to be carried out by the manufacturer or appropriately trained
personnel.
