tion-specic hazards, e.g. vessel overll through incorrect mounting

or adjustment. Damage to property and persons or environmental

contamination can result. Also, the protective characteristics of the

instrument can be impaired.

2.4 General safety instructions

This is a state-of-the-art instrument complying with all prevailing

regulations and directives. The instrument must only be operated in a

technically awless and reliable condition. The operator is responsi-

ble for the trouble-free operation of the instrument. When measuring

aggressive or corrosive media that can cause a dangerous situation

if the instrument malfunctions, the operator has to implement suitable

measures to make sure the instrument is functioning properly.

During the entire duration of use, the user is obliged to determine the

compliance of the necessary occupational safety measures with the

current valid rules and regulations and also take note of new regula-

tions.

2.5 EU conformity

The device fulls the legal requirements of the applicable EU direc-

tives. By axing the CE marking, we conrm the conformity of the

instrument with these directives.

2.6 Permissible process conditions

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" as well as on the

type label.

The permissible process pressure range is specied by "MWP"

(Maximum Working Pressure) on the type label, see chapter "Struc-

ture". The MWP takes the element of the measuring cell and process-

ing tting combination with the weakest pressure into consideration

and may applied permanently. The specication refers to a reference

temperature of +20 °C (+68 °F). It also applies when a measuring cell

with a higher measuring range than the permissible pressure range of

the process tting is installed order-related.

In order to prevent damage to the device, the test pressure may only

exceed the specied MWP briey by 1.5 times at reference tempera-

ture. The pressure stage of the process tting as well as the overload

resistance of the measuring cell are taken into consideration here

(see chapter "Technical Data").

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.

surized vessel

1 IPT-2x

2 IPT-2x, slave sensor

The sensors are connected via a screened four-wire cable. The

measured value from the slave sensor is read in and factored into the

calculations. Power supply and parameter adjustment are carried out

through the master sensor.

Information:

The sensor versions "Relative pressure climate-compensated" as

well as "Double chamber housing" are not suitable for connection of a

slave sensor.

You can nd further information in chapter "Combination Master -

Slave " of this operating instructions.

The process pressure acts on the sensor element via the process dia-

phragm. The process pressure causes a resistance change which is

converted into a corresponding output signal and output as measured

value.

Piezoresistive sensor element

Measuring ranges up to 40 bar: piezoresistive sensor element with

internal transmission liquid is used.

4 Ceramic-capacitive measuring cell

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 is evacuated and encapsu-

lated. The ambient pressure is not compensated and does hence

inuence the measured value.

The measuring system is completely welded and thus sealed against

the process.

The process tting is sealed against the process by a suitable seal. It

must be provided by the customer, depending on the process tting

also included in the scope of delivery, see chapter "Technical data",

"Materials and weights".

3.3 Supplementary cleaning procedures

The IPT-2x is also available in the version "Oil, grease and silicone-

free". These instruments have passed through a special cleaning

procedure to remove oil, grease and paint-wetting impairment sub-

stances (PWIS).

The cleaning is carried out on all wetted parts as well as on surfaces

accessible from outside. To keep the purity level, the instruments are

immediately packed in plastic foil after the cleaning process. The

purity level remains as long as the instrument is kept in the closed

original packaging.

Caution:

The IPT-2x in this version may not be used in oxygen applications. For

this purpose, instruments are available in the special version "Oil and

grease-free for oxygen applications".

4 Mounting

4.1 General instructions

Make sure before mounting that all parts of the instrument exposed 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

You can nd detailed information on the process conditions in chapter

"Technical data" as well as on the type label.

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

•

When mounting horizontally, turn the housing so that the cable

gland or plug connector point downward

•

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.

To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is

closed during operation and locked, if necessary.

Make sure that the degree of contamination specied in chapter

"Technical data" meets the existing ambient conditions.

On devices with a threaded tting, the hexagon on the process tting

must be tightened with a suitable wrench.

See chapter "Dimensions" for wrench size.

Warning:

The housing or the electrical connection may not be used for screw-

ing in! Tightening can cause damage, 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".

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.

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

in the dierent instrument versions.

4.3 Combination Master - Slave

In principle, any sensor combination within the instrument series is

allowed. The following requirements must be fullled:

•

Conguration, Master sensor suitable for electronic dierential

pressure

•

Pressure type is identical for both sensors, i.e. relative pressure/

relative pressure or absolute pressure/absolute pressure

•

Master sensor measures the higher pressure

•

Measurement setup as shown in the following chapters

The measuring range of each sensor is selected such that it ts the

measuring loop. For this, the max. recommended turn down must be

noted. See chapter "Technical data". It is absolutely necessary the the

measuring ranges of Master and Slave correspond.

Measurement result = Measured value of Master (total pres-

sure) - measured value of Slave (static pressure)

Depending on the application, individual combinations can result, see
