3.2Principle of operation
IPT-1*Vers.2.0is a pressure transmitter for measurement of gauge
pressure,absolute pressure or vacuum.Measured products are
gases,vapours and liquids.
Sensor element is the ceramic measuring cell with rugged ceramic
diaphragm.The process pressure causes a capacitance change in the
measuring cell via the diaphragm.This change is converted into an
appropriate output signal and outputted as measured value.
The measuring cell is also equipped with a temperature sensor.The
temperature value can be displayed via the indicating and adjustment
module or processed via the signal output.
Power supply via the Profibus DP/PA segment coupler.Atwo-wire
cable according to Profibus specification serves as carrier of both
power and digital data transmission for multiple sensors.The
instrument profile of IPT-1*Vers.2.0corresponds to profile specifi-
cation version 3.0.
The GSD (instrument master files)and bitmap files necessary for
planning your Profibus DP (PA)communication network are available
from the download section on the WIKA homepage www.wika.com
under "Service".There you can also find the appropriate certificates.In
aPDM environment,an EDD (Electronic Device Description)is also
required to enable the full range of sensor functions (also available as
a download). A CD with the appropriate files can be ordered via e-mail
or by phone from one of the WIKA agencies.
The backlight of the indicating and adjustment module is powered by
the sensor.Prerequisite is a certain level of operating voltage.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".
3.3Operation
The instrument can be adjusted with the following adjustment media:
lwith indicating and adjustment module
lthe Simatic adjustment program PDM
The entered parameters are generally saved in IPT-1*Vers.2.0,
optionally also in the indicating/adjustment module.
3.4Packaging,transport and storage
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport.Its
capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test
according to DIN EN 24180.
