2.5 Design and mode of operation
This switching device is based on a piezo-resistive sensor element that is suit-
able for measuring overpressure, underpressure and differential pressure.
The pressure acts on the silicone membrane of a semiconductor chip which in
turn deforms. The specific material resistance changes proportionally to the de-
formation.
The electronics inside the pressure transmitter casing now convert this resist-
ance change into an electrical output signal, calculate the pressure measure-
ment and display this on the LC display.
The optional output signal can be dampened, spread and inverted.

FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Assembly | 3
BA_EN_DE49_0 9 / 32
3 Assembly
3.1 General
The device is designed for installation onto flat assembly plates. For screw con-
nection to the assembly plate, the device features four assembly bores on its
back, which can be used for Ø 3.5 mm tapping screws.
Optionally, the device can be delivered with a wall-mounting plate. This is also
available as accessory.
At the factory, the device is calibrated for vertical installation, but the installation
position is arbitrary. For any installation positions that are not vertical, the zero-
point signal can be corrected via the installed offset correction.
The enclosure protection type IP 65 is only guaranteed, if a suitable power sup-
ply cable is used (see accessories).
If the device is intended for outdoor use, we recommend permanently protecting
the membrane keypad against UV radiation and using a suitable enclosure or at
least the erection of a sufficiently dimensioned canopy as a protection measure
against constant rain or snow.
WARNING
Falling objects
The operator must ensure that any falling objects cannot collide with the in-
stalled unit. Steps must be taken to prevent
üsparks being generated on impact.
üthe protection class of the casing is no longer guaranteed.
a) This can be avoided by attaching protective cover,
b) a protective casing or
c) a similar element.
3.2 Process connection
The process connection may only be realised by authorised and qualified spe-
cialists that have undergone additional training or briefings or have a permit to
work on explosion-protected units in potentially explosive systems.
Risks emanating from pressure on the instrument should be prevented by
means of suitable action.
• The device may only be installed in Zone 1 or 2 or Zone 21 or 22.
• The process connection may only be connected with Zone 0.
• The pipes need to be depressurized when the instrument is being connec-
ted.
• Appropriate steps must be taken to protect the device from pressure surges.
• Check that the device is suitable for the medium being measured.
• Check whether the allowed maximum pressures and temperatures are ob-
served.
CAUTION
Do not blow into the pressure connections.
This may damage the sensor.

Illustration4: Process connection
The pressure lines must be installed at an inclination so that no water pockets
are created. If the required gradient is not reached, water filters need to be in-
stalled at suitable points.
The pressure lines must be kept as short as possible and installed without any
tight bends to avoid delays.
If the pressure sensing lines are already pressurised at the time of commission-
ing, zero-point control and adjustment cannot be performed. In such cases, the
device should be only connected to the mains without the pressure sensing
lines.
The device has several connection options for the process connection. There
must be appropriate hoses and pipes available on the system side.
The process connections are marked with (+) and (-) symbols on the device.
The pressure lines must be mounted according to these symbols.

Illustration5: Ground connection
The electrical connection may only be realised by authorised and qualified spe-
cialists that have undergone additional training or briefings or have a permit to
work on explosion-protected units in potentially explosive systems.
Risks emanating from electrical current of voltage should be prevented by
means of suitable action.
• When connecting the unit, the national and international electro-technical
regulations must be observed.
• Disconnect the system from the mains, before electrically connecting the
device.
• Do not connect the connector if strained.
• A CE-conform mains adapter with a slow 200 mA fuse only may be used in
the power supply circuit.
• To ensure safe operation of the device, the power circuit must satisfy the ig-
nition protection category "Intrinsic safety" category "ia" (see Technical
data).

4.1 Generalities
WARNING
Operation in areas at risk of explosion
If operated in explosive areas, the electrical data of the unit and the valid local
regulations and guidelines for the installation and operation of electrical systems
in explosive areas must be observed (e.g. DIN EN 60079-14)
A prerequisite for commissioning is correct installation of all electrical supply
lines and the pressure lines. All connections are arranged so that there are no
mechanical forces acting on the device.

4.3 Parameters
After being activated, the device briefly displays the software version number
and carries out a display test. Then the transmitter goes into normal mode.
When setting the parameters, the display either shows the respective menu
item or the associated parameter value. The device continues to function whilst
the parameters are being set; the changes come into effect instantly.
Please note that the transmitter will switch to the operating mode again, if no
key is pressed for more than 1 minute.
Proceed as follows to set a parameter:
• Press the enter key
û
to switch to the menu.
ESc
will appear on the dis-
play.
• Use the arrow keys
þ
to select the first parameter.
• If a password has been entered,
-p-
appears in the display. Enter the pass-
word to unlock the menu.
• Use the arrow keys
ÿ
þ
to scroll through the menu.
• Press the enter key
û
to call up the parameter.
• Use the arrow keys
ÿ
þ
to set the required value.
• Press the enter key
û
to save the value.

FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Commissioning | 4
BA_EN_DE49_0 13 / 32
After setting all parameters, leave the menu as follows:
• Use the arrow keys
ÿ
þ
to set the
ESc
parameter. You will find these at
the start and also at the end of the menu.
• Press the enter key
û
to leave to the menu.
4.3.1 Zero point control and adjustment
Ensure that the device is not pressurised (if necessary, disconnect any pressure
lines). If the device does precisely indicate zero at this point of time, parameter
0ff
enables you to adjust the measuring value exactly to zero.
After zero-point adjustment, any disconnected pressure sensing lines can be re-
connected.
4.3.2 Damping and zero-point stabilising
If there are unsteady pressure readings at this point of time or during operation,
you can use parameters
dam
and
nP
to stabilise the reading (and the output
signal).
The parameter
dam
functions like a capillary throttle. However, it only acts on
the display and output signal but not on the measuring cell itself. You can set
the response time to pressure jumps with this parameter. The value range is 0.0
s to 200.0 s.
NOTICE
Maximum damping
But with maximum damping, it will take more than 2 minutes for the reading also
to reach zero after a pressure jump from nominal pressure (100 %) to zero!
In many cases, unsteady readings are not a problem during normal operating
mode, but this is not true for the idle state, i.e. if zero (differential) pressure is
expected.
In such situations, parameter
nP
can be used. Its value defines a range of
measurement range around zero. The measured value is set to zero within this
range.

Illustration9: Zero-point window
Example: A value of 0.08 mbar is entered for
nP
. In this case all pressures within the
range of -0.08 mbar to +0.08 mbar are set to zero on the display. The reading
will only not indicate zero any more if the pressure exceeds these limits. How-
ever the pressure value and display do not correspond to one hundred percent.
The measuring pressure and reading match again when the double value, in
this case 0.16 mbar, is reached again.

4.3.3 Margin correction
The parameter
span
is used to correct the measuring range span. The current
measurement is shown. Using the arrow keys, this can be changed by up to
±10% of the basic measuring range. Keep the arrow keys pressed until the re-
quired value is shown.
4.3.4 Unit
The parameter
ein
is used to select one of the following units.
Value Einheit
1 bar
2 mbar
3 PA
4 kPa
5 psi
6 inWc
If the support point table function is used, the measurement is shown without a
unit.
4.3.5 Setting the output signal
Within the basic measuring range (see type plate) the measuring range can be
modified using the parameters
ma
(measuring range start) und
me
(measuring
range end). Both values are adjustable across the entire basic measuring
range. The set values always refer to pressure (in the relevant measuring unit)
and are converted when the measuring unit is changed.
If the pressure signal oversteps the set values, this is shown on the display with
MAX or MIN.
The difference between values
ma
and
me
must at least be 25 % of the basic
measuring range. The software does not allow any larger spreads (Turndown
4:1). If the range information is stated wrongly, you cannot leave the menu.
• If
ma
<
me
, the characteristic curve rises. The output signal grows as the
pressure increases.
• If
ma
>
me
, the characteristic curve drops. The output signal drops as the
pressure increases.
4.3.6 Output signal limits (NAMUR)
Regardless of the pressure, the three parameters
i g1
,
i g2
and
i er
define
the limit values for output signal that may not be undercut or exceeded.
These limit values take precedence over the range defined by the
ma
and
me
.
These parameters primarily serve to prevent error messages in downstream
systems caused by brief overstepping of measuring ranges.
The parameter
i g1
defines the limit value for the minimum output signal. The
output signal may not undercut this value.
The parameter
i g2
defines the limit value for the maximum output signal. The
output signal may not exceed this value.
The parameter
i er
defines the value for the error signal. The value defined via
the parameter
i er
, e.g. 3.8 mA, is issued if the device detects an internal error
and can no longer work correctly. However, not all possible errors and defects
can be detected by the device.

FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Commissioning | 4
BA_EN_DE49_0 15 / 32
4.3.7 Function selection
The parameter allows you to select between the following functions:
•
f
=0
The device works as a linear transmitter.
•
f
=1
causes a rooting of the output signal and the display.
•
f
=3 … 30
causes linearization of the output and display based on a support point
table.
NOTICE
Changing the parameter value
Whenever you change the value from
f
the program creates a new table. All
previous values in the table are rejected and replaced with new linear entries.
Rooted output signal
f
=1 causes a rooting of the output signal and the display. The menu shows the
parameters
dpf
,
maf
,
mef
and
med
. The display can be scaled infinitely with
these parameters. The measured value is displayed without a unit and can
therefore be assigned to any unit (free unit).
• The measuring range defined by the parameters
ma
and
me
is converted to
maf
and
mef
.
• The value of
dpf
determines the position of a decimal point.
• The value must be set from
med
to 0.
Support point table
f
=3 … 30 causes linearization of the output and display based on a support
point table.
Also, a parameter
lin
is shown behind which there is a submenu for entering
value pairs of the support point table. This submenu has its own entry and exit
point that is shown with End. The table is only saved if you return to the main
menu at precisely this point, i.e. if you change to the parameter
lin
in the main
menu again via the key
û
.
If the table is not structured correctly, an error message
err
will appear here
and you cannot quit the submenu.
The table comprises 3...30 pairs of values. The first value pair is
i-01 P-01
( )
.
• The value
i-01
defines the display value of the output signal level.
• The value
P-01
determines the associated pressure.
• Followed by the pairs of values ... (
i-02
|
P-02
) … (
i-30
|
P-30
).
The output is proportional to the display value.
The table is correct if the following applies for all signal values: The value is lar-
ger than the previous value. Either larger (rising characteristic curve) or smaller
(falling characteristic curve) apply to the pressure values accordingly. No trans-
ition from rising to falling characteristic curves or vice versa is allowed.

The parameter
pass
serves to define a password.
A value between 0 and 999 can be selected for the password. The value 0 can-
cels the password function.
If a password has been issued, the unit configuration is protected by this pass-
word. You can use the key
û
to switch to the configuration mode, however as
soon as you select a parameter, a password request appears
-p-
. You can set
this with the arrow keys

and confirm with
û
. This unlocks the unit and it
can be configured again.
NOTICE
Forgotten password
If the password is forgotten, it can only be deleted again by the manufacturer.
4.3.9 Reset
The function
rst
allows all settings to be reset to default values. The default
value for this parameter is 0.
Enter the value 1 to carry out a RESET. As soon as the configuration mode is
quitted via the parameter
ESc
, a RESET is carried out and all parameters are
reset to the saved default values.
4.3.10 Parameter menu
After switching on the device, it will briefly indicate the software version number
and before entering the normal operating mode. By using the middle û key on
the membrane keypad you can access the parameter menu. The reading now

Offset correction
Correct the measuring pressure to zero here. The display shows the current
measured value that you can change by up to 1/3 of the basic range.
span
Span correction
Correct the pressure measurement span. The display shows the current meas-
ured value that you can change by up to ±10% of the basic range.
np
Zero-point window
Define a range around zero in which the measured value is permanently set to
zero. Outside the range, the measured value is approached as shown in the fig-
ure Zero-point window [}13].
F
Function selection
• F=0
The device works as a linear transmitter. The parameters marked in red and
blue are hidden.
• F=1
causes a rooting of the output signal and the display. The parameters
marked in red (dPF, MAF, MEF, MEd) and shown.
• F=3 … 30
causes linearization of the output and display based on a support point
table. The parameter F states the number of support points (value pairs) in
the table. The table can contain 3 to 30 support points. If the table is used,
the parameters marked in red and blue (dPF, MAF, MEF, MED and LIN) are
shown. The measured value is displayed without a unit and can therefore
be assigned to any unit by the user using the additional parameters (free
unit).
The measured value is displayed without a unit and can therefore be assigned
to any unit by the user using the following parameters (free unit).
dPF
Decimal point „free unit“
This parameter states the number of decimal points of the displayed measured
value. Possible values are 0…3.

5 Servicing
5.1 Wartung (maintenance)
To ensure reliable operation and a long service life, we recommend carrying out
the following test on a regular basis:
• Check the reading.
• Checking the switch function in connection with the downstream compon-
ents.
• Checking the differential pressure lines for leaks.
• Checking the electrical connections (terminal connection of the cable).
The precise test cycles and operating and ambient conditions need to be adjus-
ted. If several components of the unit interact, all operating instructions of the
other units also need to be observed.
WARNING
Dust deposits
The device must be cleaned with a damp cloth a regular intervals to prevent
heat build-up. Cleaning intervals depend on the amount of local dust.
5.2 Transport
The measuring device must be protected against impacts. It should be transpor-
ted in the original packaging or a suitable transport container.
5.3 Service
All defective or faulty devices should be sent directly to our repair department.
Please coordinate all shipments with our sales department.
WARNING
Process media residues
Process media residues in and ondismantled devices can be a hazard to
people, animals and the environment. Take adequate preventive measures. If
required, the devices must be cleaned thoroughly.
Return the device in the original packaging or a suitable transport container.
5.4 Disposal
WARNING
Incorrect disposal may pose a risk to the environment.
Please help to protect the environment by always disposing of the work pieces
and packaging materials in compliance with the valid national waste and recyc-
ling guidelines or reuse them.
