Product description
Differential pressure transmitter E2418DP is a member of the new PluraSens® family of
multifunctional measurement instruments. The transmitter is intended for measurement of
differential pressure of clean air or nonflammable gases.
The main HVAC applications for the transmitter are monitoring of fans, filters, valves,
dampers, measurement of airflow in ventilation ducts and pressure in cleanrooms. E2418
is based on a fully calibrated, linearised and temperature compensated digital differential
pressure sensor with high repeatability, stability and long lifetime.
The instrument provides two independent analog outputs OUT1 and OUT2, user selectable
to 4-20 mA or 0-10 V, proportional either to differential pressure or internal temperature.
RS485 Modbus RTU digital communication interface allows easy configuration of the
transmitter and its integration into various automation systems through the Fieldbus
network. If the symbol is marked on the equipment, consult the documentation for further
information.
Safety requirements
Misuse will impair the protection of the product. Always adhere to the safety provisions
applicable in the country of use.
Do not perform any maintenance operation with the power on. Do not let water or foreign
objects inside the device.
Removal of the PCB from the enclosure voids the warranty. Do not touch the electronic
components directly, as they are sensitive to static electricity.
Connection diagrams can be found in the installation and connections section. The device
might not perform correctly or be damaged if the wrong power supply is connected.
External circuits connected to the equipment should have sufficient insulation rating
according to the environmental conditions and equipment power.
A disconnecting device that is marked as such and easily accessible should be included in
the installation of this product.

E2418DP Rev 27.05.2021
Operating conditions
The device should be used in explosion-safe (indoor areas, without aggressive
gases in the atmosphere. Allowed conditions are:
●temperature in the range of -20...+70 °C
●relative humidity in the range of 0...99% without condensation
●atmospheric pressure in the range of 84...106,7 kPa.
Installation and connections
Before proceeding with the installation it is mandatory to read carefully the Safety
requirements section and make sure to comply with all listed instructions.
The pressure transmitter should be mounted on a wall.

E2418DP Rev 27.05.2021
To install the device, proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew four lid screws and detach the lid from the transmitter.
2. Attach the device to a wall with screws passing through mounting holes (for dimensions
see the antecedent drawing). This step may be done after step 3, consider your
convenience.
3. Use M16 cable gland to let in cables of the power supply and of the external devices.
Attach the power cable to the device without turning it on. Using the connection diagram
below, connect the analog outputs and digital interface terminals to the relevant devices
according to your tasks.

The screwless quick connect spring terminals on the E2407 are suitable for a wide range
of wires with cross-section 0,2...1,5 mm2. The recommended wire stripping length is 8...9
mm. Push the spring loaded terminal lever, insert the wire end into the terminal hole and
release the lever.
Use twisted pair cable, e.g. LiYY TP 2×2×0,5 mm2 or CAT 5, to connect the device to the
RS485 network. Use one pair for A and B wires and the second pair for common 0V and
power +U wires. to connect the transmitter to the Fieldbus network.polarity must be
respected when connecting to an external RS485 network.
Overall length of all connections via the RS485 interface should not exceed 1200 m.
Both analog outputs can be independently changed between 4-20 mA and 0-10 V type
using jumpers J1 (OUT1) and J2 (OUT2). By closing pins on a specific jumper the related
output is 0-10 V, with an open jumper the output is 4-20 mA. Power restart is required after
changing the position of the jumpers.
NOTE! Power restart is required after changing the position of the jumpers.
4. Turn on the power. The operating status is indicated by the LED on the PCB of the
device. The LED response to different processes is presented in the following table:
Mode
LED mode
During calibration mode or sensor heating
period (if activated)
0.5 Hz (50% on, 50% off)
During the Modbus communication cycle
Short on-off pulses
Normal operating/measurement
Continuously on or off
5. Make sure that the transmitter is properly mounted, the external devices connected,
power on and control LED is constantly lit. Place the lid back and fix it with the screws. To
connect the device with measurement point use tubes of appropriate diameter (4 or 6 mm)
and length.
NOTE! The connecting tubes should not be squeezed or folded.

Return to default settings
To reset the device’s Slave ID, baud rate and stop bit number to factory settings, proceed as
follows:
1. De-energize the device
2. Connect the X6 jumper
3. Turn on the device
4. De-energize the device
5. Disconnect the X6 jumper
