Safety notes
Select the appropriate pressure transmitter with regard to scale
range, performance, medium-contacting parts and specific
measurement conditions prior to installing and starting the in-
strument
Otherwisethetransmittercandbedamaged.
Observe the relevant national regulations and observe the ap-
plicable standards and directives for special applications (e.g.
with dangerous media such as acetylene, flammable gases or
liquids and toxic gases or liquids and with refrigeration plants
or compressors).
If you do not observe the appropriate regulations, serious injuries
and/or damage can occur!
Open pressure connections only after the system is without
pressure!
Please make sure that the pressure transmitter is only used
within the overload threshold limit all the time!
Observe the ambient and working conditions outlined in „Tech-
nical data”.
Observe the technical data for the use of the pressure transmit-
ter in connection with aggressive / corrosive media and for the
avoidance of mechanical hazards. Open circuit before removing
connector / cover.
Ensure that the pressure transmitter is only operated in accord-
ance with the provisions i.e. as described in the following in-
structions.
Do not interfere with or change the pressure transmitter in any
other way than described in these operating instructions.
Remove the pressure transmitter from service and mark it to
prevent it from being used again accidentally, if it becomes
damaged or unsafe for operation.
Otherwiseseriousinjuriesmayoccurandthetransmittercanbe
damaged.
Take precautions with regard to remaining media in removed
pressure transmitter.
Remaining media in the pressure port may be hazardous or toxic!

Instruction Manual VD61 9/ 23
Scope of application
Series VD61 pressure transmitters are mainly used in: Shipbuilding indus-
try, transport technology, machinery and equipment. They measure the
pressure of liquid or gaseous media.
Caution: An unsuitable pressure medium can damage or even
destroy the pressure sensor!
Therefore, please check whether the pressure medium is suitable
for the medium-contacting parts of the pressure sensor before in-
stallation and use. For further information please read the technical
data.
Measuring principle
The pressure prevailing within the application is transformed into a stand-
ardised electrical signal through the deflection of the diaphragm, which
acts on the sensor element with the power supply fed to the transmitter.
This electric signal changes in proportion to the pressure and can be eval-
uated correspondingly.
