pressure transmitter.
Any operation not described in the following instructions must not be car-

ried out.

If a failure cannot be repaired, the transmitter must be switched off. The
operator must then make sure that it is only switched on again after the
failure has been repaired.

Prior to installing, starting and operating a pressure measuring instrument,
the user must ensure that the appropriate instrument has been selected
with regard to scale range and performance and that the wetted parts
material is suitable for the specific measuring conditions of the respective
application.

Serious injuries and/or damage can occur should the relevant regulations
not be observed.

Dangerous pressure media such as oxygen, acetylene, flammable gases
or liquids and toxic gases or liquids as well as instruments for refrigeration
plants or compressors etc. require attention above the standard regula­tions. Here the specific safety codes or regulations must be considered.

Contents

Ramaining pressure medium contained in the pressure element may be
hazardous or toxic. This should be considered when handling and storing

the removed pressure measuring instrument.

Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer. All other repairs or
modifications of the transmitter are unauthorized.

Attention

Other important safety guidelines can be found in the different sections of
this instruction manual.

5.3 Calibration with Pressure

5.3.1 Zero Point Calibration

Make sure that the pressure to be used as the zero point (P 0 %), is
present at the transmitterer diaphragm before calibration.

5.3.2 Span Calibration

Calibration of the measurement ran

Make sure that the pressure to be used as the span end-point (P 100 %) is
present at the transmitter diaphragm. The measuring range between zero
and end value of span is saved as span.

e (span).

A change in the zero point has no effect on the calibrated span.
However, if the span end-point is higher than the peak value of the sen­sor’s nominal pressure range, then span end-point is fixed at this peak val­ue and the span is reduced accordingly.
A change in the span setting has no effect on the zero point. The zero point
and span end-point must fall within the sensor’s nominal pressure range.
A mounting correction must not be carried out when making an adjustment
with pressure (wet adjustment). Otherwise, the mounting correction must
be carried out before saving the zero point and the end value of span.

5.4 Calibration without Pressure

Determine the current reference values for the zero point and the span to be entered
in the transmitter before calibration. This is done as follows:

• Adjust this pressure in proportion to the sensor’s nominal pressure ran

This means that the output must be set to 12 mA durin

A change in the zero point has no effect on the adjusted span.
However, if the span end-point is higher than the peak value of the
transmitter’s nominal pressure range, then the span end-point is fixed
at this peak value and the span is reduced accordingly.
A change in the span setting has no effect on the zero point. The zero
point and span end-point must fall within the transmitter’s nominal
pressure range.

A test / correction of the zero point is suggested after adjusting the
span in order to maintain optimum accuracy.

Important

A mounting correction should be carried out before or after making an
adjustment without pressure (dry adjustment) (see 5.4.3). The trans­mitter must therefore be placed in the reference position for the mea­surement (installation site) without pressure on the diaphragm.

6.5.2 Main Menu: Calibration of zero and span

A single pressure value is set for the zero point or the span end-point
within the sensor’s nominal pressure range, and assigned to the associ­ated output current signal when making adjustments with existing pres­sure. An error signal occurs when the existing pressure lies outside of
the sensor’s nominal pressure range. The value is not saved in this
case.

A mounting correction should be performed before or after making an
adjustment without pressure (dry adjustment) (see 6.5.6). The sensor

Important

must therefore be placed in the reference position for the measurement
(installation site) without pressure on the diaphragm.

A mounting correction is unnecessary when making an adjustment with
pressure (wet adjustment). Otherwise, the mounting correction must be
performed before saving the zero point and span end- point.
