Installation
CAUTION
Please observe the following to ensure that the DG
is not damaged during installation and operation:
– Continuous operation with gases containing
more than 0.1 %-by-vol. H2S or ozone con-
centrations exceeding 200 µg/m³ accelerate
the ageing of elastomer materials and reduce
the service life.
– Use approved sealing material only.
– Dropping the device can cause permanent dam-
age. In this event, replace the entire device and
associated modules before use.
– Check max. ambient temperature – see
page3 (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 in a
roofed area and protect from direct sunlight
(even IP65 version). To avoid condensation, a
cover with pressure equalization element (Order
No.74923391) can be used.
– Avoid strong impact on the unit.
– In case of highly fluctuating pressures, install a
restrictor orifice (Order No.75456321).
▷Installation position as required, preferably with
vertical diaphragm. Then the switching pointpS
corresponds to the scale valueSK set on the
hand wheel. In other installation positions, the
switching pointpSwill change and no longer
correspond to the scale valueSK set on the
hand wheel. Check the switching point.

4 If the electrical contacts in the DG could be soiled
by dirt particles in the surrounding air or in the
medium, use a filter pad (Order No.74946199)
at port3/4. On IP65 units, the filter pad is fitted
as standard, see type label.
Wiring
▷If the DG..G has switched a voltage > 24 V and a
current > 0.1 A at cos φ = 1 or > 0.05 A at cos φ =
0.6 once, the gold plating on the contacts will have
been burnt through. It can then only be operated at
this power rating or higher power rating.
▷ Pressure switch DG can be used in Zone1
(21) and2 (22) hazardous areas if an isolating
amplifier is installed upstream in the safe area
as “Ex-i”equipment pursuant to EN60079-11
(VDE0170-7):2012.
▷ DG as “simple electrical equipment” pursuant to
EN60079-11:2012 corresponds to the Tempera-
ture classT6, GroupII. The internal inductance/
capacitance is Li= 0.2μH/Ci= 8pF.
CAUTION
Please observe the following to ensure that the DG
is not damaged during operation:
– Note the switching capacity, see page 3
(Technical data).
▷ In the case of low switching capacities, such as
24V, 8mA, for example, we recommend using an
RCmodule (22Ω, 1μF) in air containing silicone or oil.

▷ If the DG does not trip at the desired switching
point, correct the adjusting range using the hand
wheel. Relieve the pressure and repeat the process.

Maintenance
In order to ensure smooth operation: check the tight-
ness and function of the DG every year, or every six
months if operated with biogas.
▷A function check can be carried out in case of
decreasing pressure control e.g. with the PIA.
▷After carrying out the maintenance work, check
for tightness, see page3 (Tightness test).

SIL, PL
The pressure switches are suitable for single-channel
systems (HFT = 0) up to SIL 2/PL d, and up to SIL3/
PL e when two redundant pressure switches are
installed in a double-channel architecture (HFT = 1),
provided that the complete system complies with the
requirements of EN 61508/ISO 13849. The safety
function value which is actually achieved is derived
by taking all components into account (sensor – logic
– actuator). For this, the demand rate and structural
measures to avoid/detect nonconformity are to be
observed (e.g. redundancy, diversity, monitoring).
Characteristic values for SIL/PL: HFT = 0 (1de-
vice), HFT = 1 (2 devices), SFF > 90, DC = 0,
type A/category B, 1, 2, 3, 4, high demand mode,
