6. Commissioning, operation / 7. Options and accessories
Switch point and zero point setting
The switch point and zero point setting is made by adjustment screws in the front,
which are accessible by loosening the plug screws.
EN
By turning the adjustment screw using a screwdriver the desired zero point is set.
The switch points are set at the factory when the set points are given.
An assistant scale simplifies the setting of the switch point.
If an accurate switch point setting is required, a reference standard should be
used for the adjustment.
6.3 Commissioning
Avoid pressure surges during the commissioning process at all costs. Open the
shut-off valves slowly.
7. Options and accessories
7.1 4-way valve manifold
Shuts off the ⊕ and ⊖ process lines for removing or testing the measuring
■
instrument without interrupting the running process operation.
Protection of the instrument against
excessive overpressure loading, such as
in pressure tests and undefined operating
conditions (including intermittent shutdown).
Pressure compensation for zero point
■
checking with running processes, and
avoiding one-sided overpressure loading
during start-up and operation phases (with
opened pressure compensating valve).
Venting the measuring lines with liquid
■
media and flushing of the measuring lines,
in order to remove contamination.
