3.2 Principle of operation
SU 600 Ex is a universal single signal conditioning instrument with
integrated level switches and display for continuous sensors. At
the same time, it can serve as power supply unit for the connected
sensor.SU 600 Ex is designed for connection of any 4 … 20 mA
sensor. The instrument is suitable for carrier rail, panel and surface
mounting.
The SU 600 Ex signal conditioning instrument can power connected
sensors and process their measurement signals. The requested
measured variable is shown on the display and also outputted to the
integrated current output for further processing.The measurement
signal can thus be transferred to a remote indication or a superor-
dinate control system.Two level relays for control of pumps or other
devices are also integrated.
Wide-range power supply unit with 20 … 253 V AC/DC for worldwide
use.
Detailed information about the power supply can be found in chapter
"Technicaldata".
3.3 Operation
The adjustment of SU 600 Ex is carried out via the integrated keys
and a 16-step function switch.

5.1 Preparing the connection
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
• Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage
• If overvoltage surges are expected, overvoltage arresters should
be installed
Inhazardousareasyoumusttakenoteoftherespectiveregulations,
conformityandtypeapprovalcerticatesofthesensorsandpower
supply units.
Thepowersupplycanbe20…253VAC,50/60Hzor
20 … 253 V DC.
The voltage supply of SU 600 Ex is connected with standard cable
according to the national installation standards.
The instrument is connected with standard two-wire cable without
screen. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the
test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, screened cable should
be used.
Connect the cable screen on both ends to ground potential. In the
sensor, the screen must be connected directly to the internal ground
terminal.The ground terminal outside on the sensor housing must be
connected to the potential equalisation.
If potential equalisation currents are expected, the screen connec-
tion on the side of SU 600 Ex must be made via a ceramic capacitor
(e. g. 1 nF, 1500 V). The low frequency potential equalisation currents
arethussuppressed,buttheprotectiveeectagainsthighfrequency
interference signals remains.
Take note of the corresponding installation regulations for Ex applica-
tions. In particular, make sure that no potential equalisation currents
owoverthecablescreen.Incaseofgroundingonbothsidesthis
can be achieved by the use of a capacitor or a separate potential
equalisation.
5.2 Connection procedure
Proceed as follows:
1. Mount SU 600 Ex
2. Connect sensor cable to terminal 1 and 2, and where applicable,
connect the screen
3. Connectpowersupply(switchedo)toterminal5and6
4. If necessary, connect fail safe and operating relay as well as cur-
rent output

Information:
Via the slide switch on the rear of the instrument you can switch over
between active and passive operation of the measuring data input:
• In active mode, SU 600 Ex provides the power for the connected
sensors. Power supply and measurement data are transmitted
over the same two-wire cable.This mode is provided for connec-
tion of measuring transducers without separate voltage supply
(sensors in two-wire version).
• In passive mode the sensors are not powered, only the measured
value is transmitted. This input is for connection of transmitters
with their own separate voltage supply (sensors in four-wire ver-
sion).The SU 600 Ex can be also looped into the existing circuit
like a normal ammeter.

6.2 Setup steps
Setup comprises mainly the adjustment of the measurement loop.
A scaling of the measured value for the LC display and the adapta-
tion of the relay switching points are further settings. Additional setup
steps would be, if necessary, setting an integration time (damping) to
steady the measured value or modifying the current output character-
istics.
To clearly denote the measuring unit, the supplied labels can be
inserted in the cover. In case several SU 600 Ex are used, each
measurement loop should be clearly labelled.
Afterbeingswitchedon,SU600Exrstofallcarriesoutashortself-
check.The following steps are carried out:
• Internal check of the electronics
• Indicationofthermwareversion
• Theoutputsignaljumpsbrieytothesetfaultvalue
Then the actual measured value is displayed and the corresponding
current is transmitted to the current output.
The measured value indication shows the digital indication value and
also an analogue bargraph. Here, it is absolutely necessary that the
function switch is set to position [ 0] ("OPERATE").
The following functions can be selected via the rotary switch:
• 0: Measured value display and simulation
• 1: Relay 1 switching point ON
• 2: Relay 1 switching point OFF
• 3: Relay 2 switching point ON
• 2: Relay 2 switching point OFF
• 5: Decimal point position of the scaling
• 6: Scaling for 100 %
• 7: Scaling for 0 %
• 8: Switch over current output 0/4 … 20 mA
• 9: Damping of the measured value (integration time)
• A:Osetcorrection
• B: Min. adjustment in percent through change of the level

tion.The complete measuring range will be shifted by the deviating
amount.
1. Make sure that the pressure transmitter is completely unpressur-
ised,uncovered(unimmersed)andmountedinitsnalposition.
2. Set the function switch to position [A].The display indicates now
the actual sensor current in mA. Save the current status by push-
ing the [+/- ] keys simultaneously.
For this adjustment procedure, two sensor current values
(4 … 20 mA) must be entered corresponding to the levels 0 % and
100 %.
Whenusingapressuretransmitter,anosetcorrectionshouldbecar-
riedouttoreachmaximumaccuracy.Carryoutthisosetcorrection
before adjustment and with the sensor uncovered (unimmersed).
→ Now select the position [D] or [E] on the function switch, enter the
current values in mA for min. or max. adjustment and save your
settings.
During this adjustment procedure, the current level is assigned to
a certain percentage value. For this reason, percentage values that
correspondtotheactualllinglevelsmustbeenteredforthemin.and
max. adjustment. The ideal calibration is at 0 % and 100 %. Because
itisnotalwayspossibletoemptyorllavesselcompletely,anyvalue
canofcoursebeentered.Thegreaterthedierencebetweenthetwo
adjustment points, the more precise the measurement. It does not
matterwhichvalueisenteredrst.
→ Select position [B] or [C] on the function switch, enter the per-
centage values for the min. and max. adjustment and save your
settings.
Two operating relays are integrated inSU 600 Ex for level detection.
First of all, determine at which switching points the relays should
switchonandoagain.Furthermoreyouhavetodistinguishbetween
therelaymodesoverllanddryrunprotection.Youswitchoverby
exchanging the ON/OFF values of the relay.
• Overowprotection:Relayisswitchedowhenthemax.levelis
exceeded (safe currentless state), relay is switched on again when
thelevelfallsbelowthemin.level(switch-onpoint<switch-o
point)
• Dry run protection:Relayisswitchedowhenthelevelfalls
below the min. level (safe currentless state), relay is switched on
again when the max. level is exceeded (switch-on point > switch-
opoint)
→ Toadjusttheonandoswitchingpointsofrelay1,setthefunc-
tion switch to position [1] or [2], enter the switching points for ON
or OFF and save your settings. If necessary, proceed in the same
way with relay 2 (position [3] or [4]).

Scaling means converting the measured value into a certain param-
eter and unit.The indication can then show the volume in litres e.g.,
instead of the percentage value. Indication values from -9999 to
+9999 are possible.
1. First of all, determine the max. indicating range and the number of
decimal places after the decimal point -- max. four decimal places
can be displayed. Select position [ 5 ] of the function switch, place
the decimal point in the required position and save your settings.
2. Now select position [6] or [7] on the function switch, enter the
requested values for 100 % or 0 % and save your settings.
Tosuppressuctuationsinthemeasuredvaluedisplay,e.g.caused
by an agitated product surface, an integration time can be set.This
time can be between 0 and 250 seconds. Remember that the reaction
time of the entire measurement will then be longer and the sensor will

The characteristics of the current output can be switched over from
4 … 20 mA to 0 … 20 mA.
→ Now select position [8] on the function switch, adjust the re-
quested characteristics curve and save your settings
To check if the settings ofSU 600 Ex are correct, the simulation mode
can be used. Any individual measured value can be simulated and
e.g. the correct behaviour of the relays and the connected instruments
can be checked.
Switching over between the functions "OPERATE" and "Simulation" is
done by pushing the [+/-] keys for at least 3 seconds. In the simula-
tionmode,thesetvalueashesonthedisplay.Thesimulationcanbe
switchedobypushingbothkeysagainforapprox.3seconds.Ifno
key is pushed, the display switches automatically over to "OPERATE"
after approx. 60 minutes and the simulation is terminated.
→ To start simulation, push the [ +/-] keys simultaneously until the
displayedvaluestartsashing(approx.3seconds).Bypushing
either of the [ +/-] keys, you can set the requested simulation
value and carry out your check.
With a reset, all values set by the user will be lost and are reset to
factory settings.
→ Interrupt the power supply of SU 600 Ex. Push the [+/-] keys
simultaneously and hold them while you switch on the power
supply. The display shows "RES" and the default settings will be
restored.These are the following:
• Relay switch on points: 10 %
• Relayswitchopoints:100%
• Decimal point: 888.8
• Display min.: 0
• Display max.: 100.0
• Integration time: 0 s
• Osetcorrection:0
• Current output: 4 … 20 mA
• Min. adjustment: 0 % or 4 mA
• Max. adjustment: 100 % or 20 mA
6.3 Application example
• An upright cylindrical (linear) tank has a volume of 2700 l
• Themax.llingvolumeis2650l,themin.llingvolume50l
• The level sensor in the vessel is a pressure transmitter (passive),
outputting a standardised 4 … 20 mA signal
• For further processing, an additional 4 … 20 mA output signal is
required
• The full and empty adjustment was carried out directly in the sen-
sor. The following values are outputted:
– Max. volume (display max.) 20 mA = 2650 l
– Min. volume (display min.) 4 mA = 50 l
• Relay 1 should switch on an emptying pump at a level of 90 % and

1. Select the following functions with the rotary switch.
2. Push one of the two [+/-] adjustment keys, the digital indication
ashes(iftherotaryswitchissetto"OPERATE", the [+/-] keys are
inoperable)
3. Adjust the requested value with the [+/-] keys. If you hold the key
pushed, the digital indication changes the value more quickly.
4. Save your settings by pushing the [+/-] keys simultaneously
1. Set the function switch to position [8]. Select with the [+/-] keys
the measured value output 4 … 20 mA or 0 … 20 mA. For this
example, choose 4 - 20.
The displayed numbers have the following meanings:
• 0 - 20 = 0 … 20 mA
• 4 - 20 = 4 … 20 mA
2. Save the value by pushing [+/-] simultaneously
SU 600 Ex requires for scaling of the indication, the adjustment of the
llingquantitiesfor0%and100%.Thevesselmustneitherbelled
nor emptied.
1. Set the function switch to position [7] (display min.)
2. Set the value to 50 via the [+/-] keys
3. Save the value by pushing both keys simultaneously
1. Set the function switch to position [6] (display max.)
2. Set the value to 2650 via the [+/-] keys
3. Save the value by pushing both keys simultaneously
Since the range of the example tank is between 50 l and 2650 l, you
need all 4 decimal places for the digital indication.
1. Set the function switch to position [5] (Decimal Point)
2. By pushing the [+/-] keys, you move the decimal point
3. Save the value by pushing both keys simultaneously
• Set the function switch to position [ 1 ] (relay 1 on). For the given
example, select the value 90.0 (90.0 %) with the [ +/- ] keys. The
internal relay 1 then switches on when this value is reached. Save
the value by pushing the two keys simultaneously.
• Set the function switch to position [ 2](relay1o).Selectthe
value 10.0 (10.0 %) with the [ +/-] keys.The internal relay 1 then
switchesowhenthevaluefallsbelowthisvalue.Therespective
relaycontrollamplightswhentherelayisenergized.Iftheswitch-
ing points are too close together (< 0.1 %), the appropriate LED
ashes.Therelaytakesonthesafecondition.Inmode"OPERATE
" an error message is outputted on the display.
• If you want to control additional relays, proceed in the same way,
as with relay 1. The switch positions for setting the respective
relays are stated in the list of the function switch under "Setup
procedure".
