Avoid static and dynamic overpressure exceeding the given overload pressure.
Even if the bursting pressure is exceeded only for a short time the unit can be destroyed (danger of injuries)!
For gaseous media the application is limited to max. 25 bar.

Indication of the current system pressure as from 1% of the value of the measuring range. Display "0" does not mean that the system is free of pressure!
Hysteresis:
The hysteresis keeps the switching state of the output stable if the system pressure varies about the preset value. When the system pressure is rising, the output switches when the switch-on point has been reached (SPx); when the system pressure is falling again, the output switches back when the switch-off point (rPx) has been reached.

There is only one data series labeled 'hysteresis'.The hysteresis can be set: First the switch-on point is set, then the switch-off point with the requested difference.
Window function:
The window function enables the monitoring of a defined acceptable range. When the system pressure varies between the switch-on point (Sx1) and the switch-off point (rPx), the output is switched (window function / NO) or not switched (window function / NC).
The width of the window can be set by means of the difference between SPx and rPx. SPx = upper value, rPx = lower value.

Run mode:
(Normal operating mode)
When the supply voltage has been applied, the unit is in the Run mode. It monitors and switches the transistor outputs according to the set parameters.
The display shows the current system pressure, the red LEDs indicate the switching state of the outputs.
Display mode:
(Indication of parameters and the set parameter values)
When the "Mode/Enter" button is pressed for a short time, the unit passes to the Display mode. Internally it remains in the operating mode. Irrespective of this the set parameter values can be read:
- The parameter names are scrolled with each pressing of the "Mode/Enter" button.
- When the "Set" button is pressed briefly, the corresponding parameter value is displayed for 5s. After another 5s the unit returns to the Run mode.
Programming mode:
(Setting of the parameter values)
The unit passes to the programming mode when after the selection of a parameter value (Display mode) the "Set" button is pressed until the display of the parameter value is changed. Internally the unit remains in the operating mode. It continues its monitoring function with the existing parameters until the change has been terminated.
You can change the parameter value by pressing the "Set" button and confirm it by pressing the "Mode/Enter" button. The unit returns to the Run mode when no button has been pressed for 5s.
3. Adjustable parameters
(Menu structure: see page 3)
![]() | Switch-on point: Upper limit value at which the output changes its switching status.● setting range 1 ... 100% of the value of the measuring range● in steps of 0.5% of the value of the measuring range● indicated in bar | |||||||||
![]() | Switch-off point: Lower limit value at which the output changes its switching status.● setting range 0.5 ... 99.5% of the value of the measuring range● in steps of 0.5% of the value of the measuring range● indicated in barrPx is always lower than SPx. The unit only accepts values which are 0.5% lower than SPx.Changing the switch-on point also changes the switch-off point (the distance between SPx and rPx remains constant).If the distance is higher than the new switch point, it is automatically reduced (rPx is set to the minimum setting value). | |||||||||
![]() | Delay time for the switching outputsdSx = switch-on delay; drx = switch-off delayThe output does not immediately change its switching status when the switching condition is met but when the delay time has elapsed. If the switching condition is no longer met when the delay time has elapsed, the switching state of the output does not change.● setting range: 0 - 0.2 - 0.4 ... 9.8 - 10 - 11 - ... - 49 - 50s● in steps of 0.2 or 1s● indicated in seconds | |||||||||

6. Programming
Take the following 3 steps for programming:
| 1 | ![]() | ![]() | Press the Mode/Enter button several times until the respective parameter is displayed. |
| 2 | ![]() | ![]() | Press the Set button and keep it pressed. The current parameter value is indicated for 5s, then the value is increased* (incremental by pressing briefly or scrolling by holding pressed). |
| 3 | ![]() | ![]() | Press the Mode/Enter button briefly (= acknowledgement). The parameter is displayed again, the set parameter value becomes effective. |
| Wait 5s (the unit passes to the operating mode and the current measured value is indicated again), or start again with step 1 to program other parameters. | |||
*Decrease the value: Let the display of the parameter value move to the maximum setting value. Then the cycle starts again at the minimum setting value.
If no button is pressed for 20s during the setting procedure, the unit returns to the operating mode.
Locking / Unlocking
The unit can be electronically locked to prevent unwanted adjustment of the set parameters: Press (in Run mode) both pushbuttons for 10s. As soon as the indication goes out the unit is locked or unlocked. Units are delivered from the factory in the unlocked state.
With the unit in the locked state is indicated briefly when you try to change parameter values.
7. Installation and set-up / Operation
After mounting, wiring and setting check whether the unit operates correctly.
Faults displayed during operation:
