2 General information

2.1 Scope of application General information

The Arkon DIFP20 differential pressure transmitter combines maximum precision with

simple operation. It is used to measure the differential pressure of gases, vapors and

liquids. The integrated LCD shows measurement values and device data.

The enclosure and sensors are made from high-quality stainless steel. It is also possible to

connect remote seals for special process engineering applications (see data sheets 409772

to 409784).

The transmitter is programmable, making it readily adaptable to a variety of different

measurement tasks. A user-friendly setup program is available as an accessory, for operation

via interfaces. A rotary knob ensures highly convenient and fast local, manual operation.

Use in "Ex areas"

The differential pressure transmitter is approved for use in hazardous "Ex areas". The

instrument is explosion-proof and can be mounted in Zone 1.

2.2 Scope of delivery Operating instructions B 403023.0

Operating instructions are a guide for mounting, electrical connection, starting up and

operating the Arkon DIFP20. Calibration certificate

The differential pressure transmitter comes with a calibration certificate and a SETUP

printout. These documents contain information about the set parameters or measured

parameters for the relevant differential pressure transmitter.

If the calibration certificate is lost, or if you need another copy, this can be ordered from

Arkon. Please provide the serial number of the differential pressure transmitter ("F-Nr" on the

nameplate). Your supplier's address can be found on the back of the manual.

Setup program

The setup program is available as an accessory: Part no. 00537577

The setup program provides a convenient way to check and adjust all the parameters of the

differential pressure transmitter. It also includes additional functions such as:

• Recording measurement values

5.1 Before mounting

DANGER!

he system must be depressurized before mounting Arkon DIFP20

differential pressure transmitter!

In potentially explosive atmospheres, only open the differential pressure transmitter once it

has been de-energized!

NOTE!

The installation location should be easily accessible, if possible in the vicinity of the measu-

ring point, and low in vibration. The permissible ambient temperature must be maintained

(note any possible heat radiation).

The Arkon DIFP20 differential pressure transmitter can be mounted above or below the

pressure tapping point.

5.2 Unscrewing the front ring or housing cover The front ring and rear housing cover can be unscrewed once the locking screws (1) have

been released. A 1.5AF hex key is required to release the locking screws.

NOTE!

Use a screwdriver, or similar, for unscrewing.

Only tighten by hand!

5.7 Level measurement with diaphragm seals

For DP level measurement of liquids in a closed tank with diaphraghm seals,

the DP transmitter has to be mounted according to the following graphic.

• PLUS input side at top

• MINUS input side at bottom

• DP transmitter between top and bottom, or at bottom.

The exact position of the DP transmitter is not relevant.

5.7.1 General notes

A pressure transmitter with capillaries and diaphragm seals forms a closed system, which is

filled with oil under vacuum.

• This closed system must not be opened.

• Do not clean or touch the membranes of the diaphraghm seals with hard or sharp tools.

• Remove the membrane protection just before installation.

• Bending radius for capillaries: 100 mm.

• Avoid vibrations during operation as much as possible.

• The capillaries on both sides should have the same temperature during operation.

If necessary, use isolation in cool or warm environment.

5.7.2 Configuration Configuration without level input (blind setting)

Range Start (4 mA):

Set P5 [mbar]

=

H × oil × g × 0.01

Range End (20 mA):

Set P6 [mbar] = (H × oil - hmax × liq) × g × 0.01

Explanation:

H [mm] = vertical spacing of diaphragm seals

hmax [mm]

oil [g/cm3]

=

=

maximum level of measured liquid, 0<hmaxH

0.96, density of oil in capillary

liq [g/cm3] = density of measured liquid

g [m/s2] = 9.81, gravitational acceleration

Example:

Tank height = 10 m

H [mm] = 9000

hmax [mm] = 8000

liq [g/cm3] = 1.00, density of water, 4 °C

Set P5 [mbar] = 9000 × 0.96 × 9.81 × 0.01 = 847.6

Set P6 [mbar] = (9000 × 0.96-8000 × 1.00) × 9.81 × 0.01 = 62.8

Result:

The ouput signal of the DP transmitter is proportional to level h:

4 mA for empty tank

20 mA for full tank

Configuration with level input

Range Start (4 mA):

When tank is empty:

Set P2 [mA] = 4.00

Range End (20 mA):

When tank is full:

Set P3 [mA] = 20.00

Result:

The ouput signal of the DP transmitter is proportional to level h:

4 mA for empty tank

20 mA for full tank

6.1 Installation instructions

GEFAHR!

The electrical connection must only be implemented by suitably qualified personnel!

Ground the instrument!

Only use cable entries or glands, blanking plugs, etc., that are suitable for the "explosion-

proof enclosure d" protection type!

The cables or leads must be suitable for the ambient conditions!

Connection openings on the instrument that are open must be closed with suitable

blanking plugs!

General

Applicable requirements must be followed for the electrical connection, especially in a

potentially explosive atmosphere:

Regulation concerning electrical systems in areas with an explosion hazard (Elex V).

Requirement for project planning, selecting and setting up electrical systems in areas with an

explosion hazard (IEC 60079-14:2007).
