|---|---|
| Humidity | 0…95 %rH (non condensing) |
-
Mount the product on flat surface using the mounting points.
A. Mounting point
Mounting orientation:
Select the mounting screws
according to the mounting surface. The maximum screw diameter is 4.3 mm.
Important: Don’t use excessive force when tightening the mounting screws. -
Install the measuring hoses carefully so that the hoses don’t bend too tightly. Too tight curves may prevent the air flow to the sensor.
4.2 Measuring range selection
Settings for -250 models
4.3 Selecting response time
The response time affects how fast the transmitter reacts to changes in the
system. The response time is the time the device takes to reach 63 % of the
measured value. To smooth out unstable pressure fluctuations in applications,
select a longer response time.
- Open the cover.
- Press the zeroing button briefly. The indicator light and display (-D models) indicate the selected response time.
Indicator light| Display| Response time
---|---|---
Three short flashes| 0.8| 0.8 seconds
Two long flashes| 4| 4 seconds - Close the cover.
4.4 Wiring
| 4-20 mA | 10…35 Vdc | **** Wiring polarity is free. |
|---|
4-20 mA
The possible zero point drifting can be eliminated by using the zeroing button
on the circuit board.
Note: Supply voltage must have been connected for one hour prior the
zeroing.
- Disconnect both pressure measurement hoses.
- Push the zeroing button until the indicator light turns on. The indicator light turns on approximately after 4 seconds.
- Release the zeroing button. Zeroing starts and the indicator turns off. The zeroing is complete when the indicator light flashes two times.
- Connect the pressure measurement hoses.
Disposal
The device is considered as electrical and electronic equipment for disposal in terms of the applicable European Directive. At the end of life the product must enter the recycling system at an appropriate collection point.
- The device must be disposed through channels provided for this purpose.
- The disposal must be completed according to the local and currently applicable laws and regulations.
Generally all metals can be recycled as material. Plastics and cardboard packaging material can be used in energy recovery. Printed circuit boards need selective treatment according to IEC 62635 guidelines. To aid recycling, plastic parts are marked with an appropriate identification code. Contact your local HK Instruments distributor for further information on environmental aspects and recycling instructions for professional recyclers.
Warranty policy
The seller is obligated to provide a warranty of five years for the delivered goods regarding material and manufacturing. The warranty period is considered to start on the delivery date of the product. If a defect in raw materials or a production flaw is found, the seller is obligated, when the product is sent to the seller without delay or before expiration of the warranty, to amend the mistake at his/her discretion either by repairing the defective product or by delivering free of charge to the buyer a new flawless product and sending it to the buyer. Delivery costs for the repair under warranty will be paid by the buyer and the return costs by the seller. The warranty does not comprise damages caused by accident, lightning, flood or other natural phenomenon, normal wear and tear, improper or careless handling, abnormal use, overloading, improper storage, incorrect care or reconstruction, or changes and installation work not done by the seller. The selection of materials for devices prone to corrosion is the buyer’s responsibility, unless otherwise is legally agreed upon. Should the manufacturer alter the structure of the device, the seller is not obligated to make comparable changes to devices already purchased. Appealing for warranty requires that the buyer has correctly fulfilled his/her duties arisen from the delivery and stated in the contract. The seller will give a new warranty for goods that have been replaced or repaired within the warranty, however only to the expiration of the original product’s warranty time.
