ment of absolute pressure in the range of rough vacuum or as
VACUU·VIEW extended version for both measuring rough and
ne vacuum.
The gauge may only be used indoors in non‑explosive areas.
Any other use is considered to be improper use.

Installation and potentially explosive atmospheres
Installation and operation in areas where potentially explosive at‑
mospheres can develop to a hazardous degree is not permitted.
The user is responsible for evaluating the hazards to the equip‑
ment so that, if necessary, protective measures can be taken for
its installation and safe operation.
ATEX equipment labeling
VACUUBRAND devices with the marking shown on the rating
plate.
VACUUBRAND devices marked ` have an approval of ATEX
equipment category 3 G; ammable substances as a mixture with
air: gases, vapors.
>Only use VACUUBRAND devices if they are in perfect work‑
ing condition.
ATEX approval1only applies to the internal, wetted parts of
the of the product, not to its surroundings.
The ATEX equipment category of the product is dependent on the
connected components and peripheral devices. Components and
connected peripherals need to have the same or higher ATEX
approval. Without concordant categorization of peripherals, the
specied category of the VACUUBRAND equipment loses its va‑
lidity.
The use of venting valves is only permitted if this would not nor‑
mally, or only rarely, cause explosive mixtures within the interior
wetted part of the VAC 24seven, or do so only for a short time.
>If necessary vent with inert gas.
>After any work on the vacuum sensor, check its leakage rate.

Safety instructions
Restrictions on operating conditions
Meaning for devices marked with X:
The devices have a low mechanical protection and must be
installed so that they cannot be mechanically damaged from
the outside; e.g., installing pump stations with impact protection,
attaching shatter protection for glass asks, etc.
The devices are designed for an ambient and media tempera‑
ture of +10 °C to +40 °C during operation. These ambient and
media temperatures must never be exceeded. When conveying/
measuring non‑explosive gases, extended gas suction temper‑
atures apply, see chapter: Technical data pump module, media
temperature (gas).
2.42.4 Proper disposalProper disposal
NOTENOTE
Electronic components must not be disposed of in the
domestic waste at the end of their service life.
Used electronic devices and batteries contain harmful sub‑
stances that can cause damage to the environment or human
health. Disused electrical devices also contain valuable raw
materials, which can be recovered for reuse if the device is dis‑
posed of correctly within the recycling process.
End users are legally obliged to take used electric and elec‑
tronic devices to a licensed collection point.
> It is your responsibility to save and delete any data before
disposing of your electronic device.
> Correctly dispose of all electronic scrap and electric compo‑
nents at the end of their service life.
> Observe the national regulations regarding disposal and
environmental protection.

Product description
3.13.1 VACUU·VIEW vacuum gaugeVACUU·VIEW vacuum gauge
The gauge as stand‑alone version will be supplied with wall power
supply plug. The gauge includes a vacuum sensor and is equipped
with an illuminated display for pressure display. The gauge is high‑
ly, chemically resistant.
VACUU·VIEW completes the VACUU·BUS® accessories program.
For more demanding tasks the gauge can be used as an external
vacuum sensor when connected to a controller VACUU·SELECT,VACUU·SELECT,
CVC 3000CVC 3000 or the gauge DCP 3000DCP 3000 .
When operating with a DCP 3000DCP 3000 measured values can be stored
(data logger) and graphically displayed. Via the RS 232 interface
the pressure can be read by an external Computer.
3.1.13.1.1 DesignsDesigns
VACUU·VIEW
With chemically resistant ceramic diaphragm sensor for precise
measurings in the range of rough vacuum. VACUU·VIEW pro‑
vides gas‑independent pressure indication with precise capacitive
readout.
The material of the connection ange of VACUU·VIEW consists
of black PP and is therefore easy to distinguish from the extended
design.
VACUU·VIEW extended
The heavy duty combination of ceramic diaphragm sensor and
ceramic jacketed Pirani sensor ensures reliable readings in the
wide range from atmosphere down to rough until ne vacuum.
The gauge reliably measures in the complete measuring range.
The connection ange of VACUU·VIEW extended consists of
aluminium and has at the interior a PPS coating.

rect measurements or damages to the sensor.
The gauge is intended for assembly directly to the apparatus
(application).

Connection via small ange
Required connection material: Clamping ring, centering or cen‑
tering ring for KF DN 16.
1. Remove dust cap.
2. Put the gauge with the centering onto the connection of the
apparatus  small ange KF DN16.
3. Fix the vacuum gauge with a clamping ring.
Connection via hose nozzle
Required connection material: Hose nozzle DN 6/10 mm G1/4”
with O ring and compatible hose clip (option).
1. Remove dust cap.
2. Screw the hose nozzle plus the o ring hand‑tight into the
inside thread.
3. Use the hose nozzle to assemble the gauge to a vacuum
hose or directly at the apparatus.
4. Fix the vacuum hose, e. g., with a hose nozzle.
5. Fix the vacuum gauge.
>Use a stable vacuum hose that is suitable for the required
vacuum range. For ne vacuum range, exible rubber hoses
for example are not useful because of possible gas emis‑
sion.
>Connect hose tubes as short as possible.
