2.3 Intended use
Depending on the variant, the pressure transmitter measures corrosive, non-corrosive and
hazardous gases, vapors and liquids.
You can use the pressure transmitter for the following measuring tasks:
• Gauge pressure
• Absolute pressure
•Di󹪜erential pressure
SITRANS P320/P420
Compact Operating Instructions, 01/2021, A5E38874562-AC 9

With the appropriate con󹪝guration and the necessary add-on parts (e.g. limiters and remote
seals), you can also use the pressure transmitter for the following measuring tasks:
• Level
• Volume 󹪞ow
• Mass 󹪞ow
• Volume
• Customized characteristic curve
The output signal for all measuring tasks is a direct current of 4 to 20 mA or a process-based,
digital signal (e.g. with PROFIBUS PA).
You can install the "intrinsically-safe" or "󹪞ameproof enclosure" version of the pressure
transmitter in hazardous areas. The devices have a test certi󹪝cation and comply with the
corresponding directives.
Pressure transmitters with remote seals of various shapes can be provided for special
applications. For example, measuring high-viscosity substances is a special application.
Operate the device in accordance with the speci󹪝cations in section Technical data (Page 61).

by TÜV Nord
WARNING
Improper device modi󹪝cations
Risk to personnel, system and environment can result from modi󹪝cations to the device,
particularly in hazardous areas.
• Only carry out modi󹪝cations that are described in the instructions for the device. Failure to
observe this requirement cancels the manufacturer's warranty and the product approvals.

3.1 Precondition for use
SITRANS P320/P420
16 Compact Operating Instructions, 01/2021, A5E38874562-AC

3.2 Requirements for special applications
Due to the large number of possible applications, each detail of the described device versions for
each possible scenario during commissioning, operation, maintenance or operation in systems
cannot be considered in the instructions. If you need additional information not covered by
these instructions, contact your local Siemens o󹪟ce or company representative.
Note
Operation under special ambient conditions
We highly recommend that you contact your Siemens representative or our application
department before you operate the device under special ambient conditions as can be
encountered in nuclear power plants or when the device is used for research and development
purposes.
DANGER
Using equipment with approval-related restrictions
Risk of explosion, damage to property due to operating conditions not in conformity with the
approval (e.g. temperature and pressure limits exceeded)
• Take note of the approval restrictions before using the device. You can 󹪝nd the information
on this in the current certi󹪝cates.

Product documentation (Page 87)
3.3 Use in hazardous areas
Quali󹪝ed personnel for hazardous area applications
Persons who install, connect, commission, operate, and service the device in a hazardous area
must have the following speci󹪝c quali󹪝cations:
• They are authorized, trained or instructed in operating and maintaining devices and systems
according to the safety regulations for electrical circuits, high pressures, aggressive, and
hazardous media.
• They are authorized, trained, or instructed in carrying out work on electrical circuits for
hazardous systems.
• They are trained or instructed in maintenance and use of appropriate safety equipment
according to the pertinent safety regulations.
Safety notes
3.3 Use in hazardous areas
SITRANS P320/P420
Compact Operating Instructions, 01/2021, A5E38874562-AC 17

WARNING
Use in hazardous area
Risk of explosion.
• Only use equipment that is approved for use in the intended hazardous area and labeled
accordingly.
• Do not use devices that have been operated outside the conditions speci󹪝ed for hazardous
areas. If you have used the device outside the conditions for hazardous areas, make all Ex
markings unrecognizable on the nameplate.
See also
Technical data (Page 61)
WARNING
Loss of safety of device with type of protection "Intrinsic safety Ex i"
If the device or its components have already been operated in non-intrinsically safe circuits or
the electrical speci󹪝cations have not been observed, the safety of the device is no longer
ensured for use in hazardous areas. There is a risk of explosion.
• Connect the device with type of protection "Intrinsic safety" solely to an intrinsically safe
circuit.
• Observe the speci󹪝cations for the electrical data on the certi󹪝cate and/or in Technical data
(Page 61).
WARNING
Use of incorrect device parts in potentially explosive environments
Devices and their associated device parts are either approved for di󹪜erent types of protection
or they do not have explosion protection. There is a risk of explosion if device parts (such as
covers) are used for devices with explosion protection that are not expressly suited for this type
of protection. If you do not adhere to these guidelines, the test certi󹪝cates and the
manufacturer warranty will become null and void.
• Use only device parts that have been approved for the respective type of protection in the
potentially explosive environment. Covers that are not suited for the "explosion-proof" type
of protection are identi󹪝ed as such by a notice label attached to the inside of the cover with
"Not Ex d Not SIL".
• Do not swap device parts unless the manufacturer speci󹪝cally ensures compatibility of
these parts.
Safety notes
3.3 Use in hazardous areas
SITRANS P320/P420
18 Compact Operating Instructions, 01/2021, A5E38874562-AC

WARNING
Use of the device with intrinsic safety "Ex i" type of protection in a polluted environment.
If you open the device on the display side, there is a risk of pollution. The safety of the device
for use in hazardous areas is therefore no longer guaranteed. There is a danger of explosion.
• Ensure that the environment is clean before rotating or replacing the display.
WARNING
Incorrect material for the diaphragm in Zone 0
Risk of explosion in the hazardous area. If operated with intrinsically safe supply devices of
category "ib" or devices of the 󹪞ameproof enclosure version "Ex d" and simultaneous use in
Zone 0, pressure transmitter explosion protection depends on the tightness of the diaphragm.
• Ensure that the material used for the diaphragm is suitable for the process medium. Refer
to the information in the section "Technical data (Page 61)".
