VEGABAR 87 • Foundation Fieldbus
45048-EN-200529
Depending on the version, the VEGABAR 87 is also suitable for
electronicdierentialpressuremeasurement.Forthis,theinstrument
is combined with a slave sensor.
Fig. 3: Electronic dierential pressure measurement through Master/Slave
combination
Youcannddetailedinformationintheoperatinginstructionsofthe
respective slave sensor.
The process pressure acts on the sensor element via the stainless
steel diaphragm and an internal transmission liquid.The process
pressure causes a resistance change which is converted into a cor-
responding output signal and output as measured value.
The METEC®measuring cell is the measuring unit. It consists of
the ceramic-capacitive CERTEC®measuring cell and a special,
temperature-compensated isolating system.

4 CERTEC®measuring cell
The measuring cell design depends on the selected pressure type.
Relative pressure: the measuring cell is open to the atmosphere.
The ambient pressure is detected in the measuring cell and compen-
sated.Itthushasnoinuenceonthemeasuredvalue.
Absolute pressure: the measuring cell contains vacuum and is
encapsulated.The ambient pressure is not compensated and does
henceinuencethemeasuredvalue.
Relative pressure, climate-compensated: the measuring cell is
evacuated and encapsulated. The ambient pressure is detected
through a reference sensor in the electronics and compensated. It
thushasnoinuenceonthemeasuredvalue.
The measuring system is completely welded and hence sealed
againsttheprocess.Thesealingoftheprocessttingagainstthe
process is carried out by a seal provided on site.
3.3 Packaging, transport and storage
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its
capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test

4.1 General instructions
Note:
For safety reasons, the instrument must only be operated within the
permissibleprocessconditions.Youcannddetailedinformationon
the process conditions in chapter "Technical data" of the operating
instructions or on the type label.
Hence make sure before mounting that all parts of the instrument ex-
posed to the process are suitable for the existing process conditions.
These are mainly:
• Active measuring component
• Processtting
• Process seal
Process conditions in particular are:
• Process pressure
• Process temperature
• Chemical properties of the medium
• Abrasionandmechanicalinuences
Protect your instrument against moisture ingress through the following
measures:
• Use a suitable connection cable (see chapter "Connecting to
power supply")
• Tighten the cable gland or plug connector
• Lead the connection cable downward in front of the cable entry or
plug connector
This applies mainly to outdoor installations, in areas where high
humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) and on cooled
or heated vessels.
Note:
Makesurethatthedegreeofcontaminationspeciedinchapter
"Technical data" meets the existing ambient conditions.
Note:
Make sure that during installation or maintenance no moisture or dirt
can get inside the instrument.
To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is
closed during operation and locked, if necessary.
Deviceswiththreadedttingarescrewedintotheprocessttingwith
a suitable wrench via the hexagon.

Warning:
The housing or the electrical connection may not be used for screw-
ing in! Depending on the device version, tightening can cause dam-
age, e. g. to the rotation mechanism of the housing.
If there is strong vibration at the mounting location, the instrument
version with external housing should be used. See chapter "External
housing".
Thepermissibleprocesspressurerangeisspeciedonthetypelabel
with "MWP" (Maximum Working Pressure), see chapter "Congura-
tion".This applies even if a measuring cell with a measuring range
(order-related) higher than the permissible pressure range of the
processttingisinstalled.
Inaddition,atemperaturederatingoftheprocesstting,e.g.with
anges,canlimitthepermissibleprocesspressurerangeaccording
to the respective standard.
The permissible process pressure range is stated on the type label.
The instrument should only be operated with these pressures if the
mountingaccessoryusedalsofullsthesevalues.Thisshouldbeen-
suredbysuitableanges,weldedsockets,tensionringswithClamp
connections, sealings, etc.
Higher process temperatures often mean also higher ambient
temperatures. Make sure that the upper temperature limits stated in
chapter "Technical data" for the environment of the electronics hous-
ing and connection cable are not exceeded.

tection during operation.
4.2 Ventilation and pressure compensation
Thelterelementintheelectronicshousinghasthefollowingfunc-
tions:
• Ventilation of the electronics housing
• Atmospheric pressure compensation (with relative pressure meas-
uring ranges)
Caution:
Thelterelementcausesatime-delayedpressurecompensation.
When quickly opening/closing the housing cover, the measured value
can change for approx. 5 s by up to 15 mbar.
Foraneectiveventilation,thelterelementmustbealwaysfreefrom
buildup.Incaseofhorizontalmounting,turnthehousingsothatthe
lterelementpointsdownwardaftertheinstrumentisinstalled.This
provides better protection against buildup.
Caution:
Donotuseahigh-pressurecleaner.Thelterelementcouldbedam-
aged, which would allow moisture into the housing.
Thefollowingparagraphsdescribehowthelterelementisarranged

The Second Line of Defense (SLOD) is a second level of the process
separation in form of a gas-tight leadthrough in the housing neck,
preventing products from penetrating into the housing.
With these instruments, the process assembly is completely en-
capsulated. An absolute pressure measuring cell is used so that no
ventilation is required.
With relative pressure measuring ranges, the ambient pressure is
detected and compensated by a reference sensor in the electronics.

directly to ground potential at the power supply unit, in the connection
box and at the sensor.The screen in the sensor must be connected
directly to the internal ground terminal.The ground terminal outside
on the housing must be connected to the potential equalisation (low
impedance).
Metric threads
In the case of instrument housings with metric thread, the cable
glands are screwed in at the factory. They are sealed with plastic
plugs as transport protection.
Note:
You have to remove these plugs before electrical connection.
NPT thread
In the case of instrument housings with self-sealing NPT threads, it is
not possible to have the cable entries screwed in at the factory.The
free openings for the cable glands are therefore covered with red dust
protection caps as transport protection.

Note:
Prior to setup you have to replace these protective caps with ap-
proved cable glands or close the openings with suitable blind plugs.
On plastic housings, the NPT cable gland or the Conduit steel tube
must be screwed into the threaded insert without grease.
Max. torque for all housings, see chapter "Technical data".
5.2 Connecting
The voltage supply and signal output are connected via the spring-
loaded terminals in the housing.
Connection to the display and adjustment module or to the interface
adapter is carried out via contact pins in the housing.
Information:
The terminal block is pluggable and can be removed from the
electronics.To do this, lift the terminal block with a small screwdriver
and pull it out. When reinserting the terminal block, you should hear it
snap in.
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing lid
2. If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn-
ing it slightly to the left
3. Loosen compression nut of the cable gland and remove blind
plug
4. Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx.
1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires
5. Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
