0870205301_GRP100-200_-0001_IM_en 5 / 16
• In rooms with moist or aggressive atmospheres, the device must be airproof shrink-
wrapped in a plastic bag together with a bag a desiccant.
4 Installation
CAUTION
Unauthorized modifications.
Risk to injury!
• Modifications or conversions of the gauge are not allowed.
4.1 Installation Conditions
• Make sure that the environment of the device is not potentially explosive.
• Make sure that the ambient conditions comply with the Technical Data [►11].
4.2 Vacuum Connection
CAUTION
Unintended opening of clamp with an overpressure in the vacuum system over 1000
mbar.
Risk to injury!
Damage to your health!
• Parts may fly around.
• Unsecured hose connections can release process media.
CAUTION
Overpressure in the vacuum system over 1500 mbar
Damage to your health!
The elastomer washers cannot withstand the pressure and can release process media.
• Use sealing rings with an outer centering ring.
NOTICE
Dirt and damage at the vacuum flange.
Impair the function of the gauge!
• Make sure that the flange is clean, dry and free of grease.
• When handling the instrument, make sure that the flange is protected against dirt and
damage.
• Remove the protective cover (is required again during maintenance work!).
• Connect the flange to the system.
Connection size:
– ISO KF 16
– G1/4 (female)

• Make sure that the sensor flange is connected to the ground.
Mounting position:
The installation position can be freely selected. The preferred position is a horizontal to
vertical position so that condensate and particles do not penetrate the measurement
chamber.

5 Operation
5.1 Before Operation
Warm-Up Time
The signal output of the gauge is available immediately after the is switched on.
5.2 Readjustment
The gauge is factory calibrated in upright position. Other orientations, different climatic
conditions, extreme temperature changes, ageing or contamination may necessitate re-
adjustment.
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

Operation | 5
0870205301_GRP100-200_-0001_IM_en 9 / 16
NOTE
Conduct adjustment at the same ambient temperature at which the device is typically
operated.
NOTE
For zero adjustment actual pressure should be less than 0.1 mbar.
NOTE
To achieve optimum results of the adjustment we recommend to consider a warm-up of
at least 5 minutes at the appropriate calibration pressure before any adjustment.
5.2.1 Readjustment by Pushbutton
• Refer to the Technical Data [►11] to know the output function of the gauge.
Readjustment on atmosphere or zero pressure can be done by means of the “Adj” push-
button of the gauge. The gauge will notice automatically which adjustment point is rel-
evant.
The adjustment at zero pressure is an offset compensation of the measurement signal.
NOTE
For zero adjustment, the real pressure must be less than 0.1 mbar.
An adjustment at zero pressure is only possible, if the gauge pressure reading is below
100 mbar.
The output signal of the GRP 100 at zero pressure should equal 1.000 V.
The output signal of the GRP 200 at zero pressure should equal 4.000 mA.
NOTE
For an adjustment at atmosphere pressure, real pressure and pressure reading of the
transmitter must be above 800 mbar.
The adjustment of the gauge should be done according its corresponding output func-
tion described in the technical data.
