1.1 Designated use
The Deltabar S is a differential pressure transmitter for measuring differential pressure, flow and
level.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damages resulting from incorrect use or use other than that
designated.
1.2 Installation, commissioning and operation
The device has been designed to operate safely in accordance with current technical, safety and EU
standards. If installed incorrectly or used for applications for which it is not intended, however, it is
possible that application-related dangers may arise, e.g. product overflow due to incorrect
installation or calibration. For this reason, the instrument must be installed, connected, operated
and maintained according to the instructions in this manual: personnel must be authorised and
suitably qualified. The manual must have been read and understood, and the instructions followed.
Modifications and repairs to the device are permissible only when they are expressly approved in
the manual. Pay particular attention to the technical data on the nameplate.
1.3 Operational safety
1.3.1 Hazardous areas (optional)
Devices for use in hazardous areas are fitted with an additional nameplate (→ see page 6). If the
device is to be installed in an explosion hazardous area, then the specifications in the certificate as
well as all national and local regulations must be observed. A separate Ex documentation is enclosed
with the device and is an integral part of this documentation. The installation regulations,
connection values and Safety Instructions listed in this document must be observed. The
documentation number of the related Safety Instructions (XA...) is also indicated on the additional
nameplate.

!Note!
• The MWP (maximum working pressure) is specified on the nameplate. This value refers to a
reference temperature of 20°C (68°F) or 100°F for ANSI flanges.
• The pressure values permitted at higher temperatures can be found in the following standards:
– EN 1092-1: 2001 Tab. 18 1
– ASME B 16.5a – 1998 Tab. 2-2.2 F316
– ASME B 16.5a – 1998 Tab. 2.3.8 N10276
– JIS B 2220
• The test pressure corresponds to the over pressure limit (OPL) of the device = MWP x 1.5.
• The Pressure Equipment Directive (EC Directive 97/23/EC) uses the abbreviation "PS". The
abbreviation "PS" corresponds to the MWP (maximum working pressure) of the measuring
device.

3 Installation
3.1 Incoming acceptance and storage
3.1.1 Incoming acceptance
• Check the packaging and the contents for damage.
• Check the shipment, make sure nothing is missing and that the scope of supply matches your
order.
3.1.2 Storage
The device must be stored in a dry, clean area and protected against damage from impact
(EN 837-2).
Storage temperature range:
• –40...+100°C (–40...+212°F)
• On-site display: –40...+85°C (–40...+185°F)
3.2 Installation conditions
3.2.1 Dimensions
→ For dimensions, please refer to the Technical Information for Deltabar S TI382P, "Mechanical
construction" section. See page 2, "Overview documentation".
3.3 Installation instructions
!Note!
• Due to the orientation of the Deltabar S, there may be a shift in the measured value, i.e. when
the container is empty, the measured value does not display zero. This zero point shift can be
corrected. → See page 49, section 6.4 "Position adjustment".
• For FMD77 and FMD78, please refer to section 3.3.4. "Installation instructions for devices with
diaphragm seals", page 15.
• General recommendations for routing the impulse piping can be found in DIN 19210 "Methods
for measurement of fluid flow; differential piping for flow measurement devices" or the
corresponding national or international standards.
• Using a three-valve or five-valve manifold allows for easy commissioning, installation and
maintenance without interrupting the process.
• When routing the impulse piping outdoors, ensure that sufficient anti-freeze protection is used,
e.g. by using pipe heat tracing.
• Install the impulse piping with a monotonic gradient of at least 10%.
• To ensure optimal readability of the on-site display, it is possible to rotate the housing up to 380°.
→ See page 18, section 3.3.7 "Rotating the housing".
• Endress+Hauser offers a mounting bracket for installing on pipes or walls. → See page 18, section
3.3.6 "Wall and pipe mounting".

• Mount the diaphragm seal with capillaries at the top or on the side on the piping.
• For vacuum applications: mount the Deltabar S below the measuring point. →See page 15,
section 3.3.4 "Installation instructions for devices with diaphragm seals", "Vacuum application"
part.
• The ambient temperature should be the same for both capillaries.
3.3.4 Installation instructions for devices with diaphragm seals
!Note!
• The diaphragm seal, together with the pressure transmitter, forms a closed, calibrated system,
which is filled through openings in the diaphragm seal and in the measurement system of the
pressure transmitter. This openings are sealed and must not be opened.
• Do not clean or touch diaphragm seals with hard or pointed objects.
• Do not remove membrane protection until shortly before installation.
• When using a mounting bracket, sufficient strain relief must be ensured for the capillaries in order
to prevent the capillary bending down (bending radius ≥ 100 mm).
• Please note that the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid columns in the capillaries can cause zero
point shift. The zero point shift can be corrected. →See also page 49, section 6.4 "Position
adjustment".
• Please note the application limits of the diaphragm seal filling oil as detailed in the Technical
Information for Deltabar S TI382P, Section "Planning instructions for diaphragm seal systems".
→ See also page 2, "Overview documentation".
In order to obtain more precise measurement results and to avoid a defect in the device, mount the
capillaries as follows:
• vibration-free (in order to avoid additional pressure fluctuations)
• not in the vicinity of heating or cooling lines
• insulate in the event of colder or warmer ambient conditions
• with a bending radius of ≥100 mm.
• The ambient temperature and length of both capillaries should be the same when using two-sided
diaphragm seal systems.
• Two diaphragm seals which are the same (e.g. with regard to diameter, material, etc.) should
always be used for the negative and positive side (standard delivery).

applications: mount pressure transmitter below the lowest diaphragm seal!
Vacuum application
For applications under vacuum, Endress+Hauser recommends mounting the pressure transmitter
underneath the lower diaphragm seal. A vacuum load of the diaphragm seal caused by the presence
of filling oil in the capillaries is hereby prevented.
When the pressure transmitter is mounted above the lower diaphragm seal, the maximum height
difference H1 in accordance with the illustration below on the left must not be exceeded. The
maximum height difference is dependent on the density of the filling oil and the smallest ever
pressure that is permitted to occur at the diaphragm seal on the positive side (empty container), see
illustration below, on the right.

#Warning!
The seal is not allowed to press on the diaphragm as this could affect the measurement result.
3.3.6 Heat insulation – FMD77
The FMD77 must only be insulated up to a certain height. The maximum permitted insulation
height is labelled on the devices and applies to an insulation material with a heat conductivity
≤0.04 W/(m x K) and to the maximum permitted ambient and process temperature (→see table
below). The data were determined under the most critical application "quiescent air".

3.3.7 Wall and pipe-mounting (optional)
Endress+Hauser offers a mounting bracket for installing the device on pipes or walls. A bracket with
mounting accessories for pipe mounting is included with the device.
!Note!
When using a valve block, the block's dimensions must be taken into account.
P01-xMD7xxxx-11-xx-xx-xx-008
Fig. 21: Mounting bracket for wall and pipe mounting
1 Device mounting
Please note the following when mounting:
• Devices with capillary lines: mount capillaries with a bending radius of ≥ 100 mm.
• To prevent the mounting screws from scoring, lubricate them with a multi-purpose grease prior
to mounting.
• In the case of pipe mounting, the nuts on the bracket must be tightened uniformly with a torque
of at least 30 Nm.
3.3.8 Rotating the housing
The housing can be rotated up to 380° by loosening the Allen screw.
