Safety information
This operating manual applies to the devices
•MP85A
•MP85ADP
•MP85A-S
•MP85ADP-S
The designation MP85A process controller will be used for all devices in this
manual. If text/data refers only to specific devices, this will be clearly indicated
in the text and one of the above designations used.
•Use shielded, low-capacitance HBM cables only.
Intended use
The MP85A process controller is to be used exclusively for measurement
tasks and directly related control tasks. Use for any purpose other than the
above is deemed to be non-designated use. In the interests of safety, the
device should only be operated as described in the Operating Manuals. It is
also essential to comply with the legal and safety requirements for the applic-
ation concerned during use. The same applies to the use of accessories.
Each time, before commissioning the device, you must first run a project plan-
ning and risk analysis that takes into account all the safety aspects of automa-
tion technology. This particularly concerns personal and machine protection.
Additional safety precautions must be taken in plants where malfunctions
could cause major damage, loss of data or even personal injury. In the event
of a fault, these precautions must establish safe operating conditions.
This can be done, for example, by mechanical interlocking, error signaling,
limit value switches, etc.
The MP85A process controller must not be connected directly to the
mains. The supply voltage must be 18 −30 V.
General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The MP85A process controller corresponds to the state of the art and is
failsafe. The device may give rise to residual dangers if it is inappropriately
installed and operated by untrained personnel.
Any person instructed to carry out installation, commissioning, maintenance or
repair of the device must have read and understood the Operating Manual
and in particular the technical safety instructions.
Conditions at the place of installation

MP85A process controller
6
A2392−5.0 enHBM
Protect the device from direct contact with water (IP20).
Maintenance and cleaning
The MP85A process controller is maintenance-free. Please note the following
points when cleaning the housing:
−Before cleaning, disconnect the device from the power supply.
−Clean the housing with a soft, slightly damp (not wet!) cloth. You should
never use solvent, since this could damage the labeling on the front panel
and the display.
−When cleaning, ensure that no liquid gets into the device or connections.
Residual risks
The scope of supply and performance of the MP85A process controller covers
only a small area of measurement technology. In addition, equipment plan-
ners, installers and operators should plan, implement and respond to the
safety engineering considerations of measurement technology in such a way
as to minimize remaining dangers.
Prevailing regulations must be complied with at all times. There must be refer-
ence to the remaining dangers connected with measurement technology. After
making settings and carrying out activities that are password-protected, you
must make sure that any controls that may be connected remain in safe
condition until the switching performance of the measurement system has
been tested.
Any risk of remaining dangers when working with the MP85A.process
controller is pointed out in these instructions by means of the following
symbols:
Symbol: WARNING
Meaning: Dangerous situation
Warns of a potentially dangerous situation in which failure to comply with
safety requirements can lead to death or serious physical injury.
Symbol: CAUTION
Meaning: Possibly dangerous situation
Warns of a potentially dangerous situation in which failure to comply with
safety requirements could lead to damage to property and slight or moderate
physical injury.

Symbols for application instructions and useful information:
Symbol: NOTE
Means that important information about the product or its handling is being
given.
Symbol:
Meaning: Statutory waste disposal mark
In accordance with national and local environmental protection and material
recovery and recycling regulations, old devices that can no longer be used
must be disposed of separately and not with normal household garbage. If
you need more information about waste disposal, please contact your local
authorities or the dealer from whom you purchased the product.
Symbol:
Meaning: CE mark
The CE mark enables the manufacturer to guarantee that the product
complies with the requirements of the relevant EC directives (the Declaration
of Conformity can be found at http://www.hbm.com/HBMdoc).
Working safely
Error messages should only be acknowledged once the cause of the error is
removed and no further danger exists.
The device complies with the safety requirements of DIN EN 61010 Part 1
(VDE 0411 Part 1).
The device must be mounted on a DIN support rail connected to grounded
conductor potential. Both the support rail and the MP85A process controller
must be free of paint, varnish and dirt at the point of installation.
To ensure adequate immunity from interference, the bus cables (CAN and for
MP85ADP, PROFIBUS DP) must be shielded, twisted-pair lines. The trans-
ducer cables must also be shielded. The shield of each transducer cable must
be connected at the MP85A process controller via as short a line as possible
(t5 cm) and a flat connector (4.8 mm; “Faston”).
The power supply and digital control input and output connection cables only
need to be shielded if the cables are longer than 30 m or are routed outside
closed buildings.

A2392−5.0 enHBM
When connecting cables (fitting and extracting terminals) and when changing
the MMC/SD Card, measures must be taken to prevent electrostatic
discharge which could damage the electronics.
The MP85A process controller must be operated with a separated extra-low
voltage (18 …30 V DC supply voltage), which usually supplies one or more
consumers within a control cabinet.
Should the device be operated on a DC voltage network1), additional precau-
tions must be taken to discharge excess voltages.
Conversions and modifications
The MP85A process controller must not be modified from the design or safety
engineering point of view except with our express agreement. Any modifica-
tion shall exclude all liability on our part for any damage resulting therefrom.
In particular, any repair or soldering work on motherboards is prohibited.
When exchanging complete modules, use only original parts from HBM.
The device is delivered from the factory with a fixed hardware and software
configuration. Changes can only be made within the possibilities documented
in the manuals.
Qualified personnel
Qualified personnel means persons entrusted with siting, mounting, starting
up and operating the product, who possess the appropriate qualifications for
their function.
This device is only to be installed and used by qualified personnel strictly in
accordance with the specifications and with the safety rules and regulations
which follow.
This includes people who meet at least one of the three following require-
ments:
•Knowledge of the safety concepts of automation technology is a require-
ment and as project personnel, you must be familiar with these concepts.
•As automation plant operating personnel, you have been instructed how to
handle the machinery and are familiar with the operation of the equipment
and technologies described in this documentation.
•As commissioning engineers or service engineers, you have successfully
completed the training to qualify you to repair the automation systems. You
are also authorized to activate, ground and label circuits and equipment in
accordance with safety engineering standards.
1) Distribution system for electrical energy with greater physical dilatation (over several control cabinets, for
example) that may possibly also supply consumers with high nominal (rated) currents.

It is also essential to comply with the legal and safety requirements for the
application concerned during use. The same applies to the use of
accessories.
Maintenance and repair work on an open device with the power on must only
be carried out by trained personnel who are aware of the dangers involved.
