3 INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Please observe the following to ensure that the
DG..T is not damaged during installation and
operation:
– Dropping the device can cause permanent
damage. In this event, replace the entire device
and associated modules before use.
– Use approved sealing material only.
– Continuous operation with gases containing
more than 0.1%-by-vol. H2S or ozone
concentrations exceeding 200µg/m3accelerate
the ageing of elastomer materials and reduce
the service life.Check max. ambient temperature
– see page 5 (10 Technical data).
– When using silicone tubes, only use silicone
tubes which have been sufficiently cured.
– Vapours containing silicone can adversely affect
the functioning of electrical contacts.
– Condensation or vapours containing silicone
must not be allowed to get into the housing. At
subzero temperatures, malfunctions/failures due
to icing can occur.
– When installing outdoors, place the DG..T in a
roofed area and protect from direct sunlight
(even IP 65 version).
– Avoid strong impact on the unit.

➔Ensure that there is sufficient installation space.
➔Ensure unobstructed view of the hand wheel.
1 Disconnect the system from the electrical power
supply.
2 Close the gas supply.
3 Ensure that the pipeline is clean.

CAUTION
Port 4connects the upper diaphragm chamber
with the micro switch. Do not connect port 4to
pipes carrying gas.
➔ The pressure switches are supplied with an inte-
grated vent limiter. In the event of a diaphragm
tear, the vent limiter limits the escape of gas to less
than 1.0 CFH of natural gas at 2.4psi (DG..6T) or
7psi (DG..10T – DG..500T). If necessary, port 4
(1/8" NPT) can be used to connect the venting line.
➔ A filter pad at port 4protects the electrical contacts
in the DG..T from dirt particles in the surrounding
air or in the medium.
➔ Filter pad for port 4: The web app PartDetective
for selecting spare parts is available at www.ad-
latus.org.
4 WIRING
CAUTION
– To ensure that the DL is not damaged during
operation, note the switching capacity, see
page 5 (10 Technical data).
In the case of low switching capacities, such as 24V,
8mA, for example, we recommend using an RCmod-
ule (22Ω, 1μF) in air containing silicone or oil.

6 PRESSURE SWITCHES WITH MAN-
UAL RESET
➔DG..NT locks off if the pressure drops to the value
set using the hand wheel.
➔DG..HT locks off if the pressure rises to the value
set using the hand wheel.
1 Reset the pressure switch using the manual reset.
➔Requirement for reset:
DG..NT: the pressure must have risen at least to the
set switching point plus the pressure differential be-
tween the switching pressure and possible lock-off.
DG..HT: the pressure must have dropped at least
to the set switching point minus the pressure differ-
ential between the switching pressure and possible
lock-off.
➔For details of the pressure differential between the
switching pressure and possible reset, see table
on page 3 (5 Adjustment).
7 TIGHTNESS TEST
1 Shut off the downstream gas pipeline close to the
valve.
2 Open the valve and the gas supply.
➔Check all used ports for tightness.

and ambient temperatures below -22°F (-30°C).
