Intended use
ECO 210-3| The device is designed as a manometer and measures even the
smallest pressure differential pressures of up to ±200 hPa with a maximum
resolution of up to 0.1 Pa (at RANG = Slo and FVNC = FINE) in air or in non-
corrosive/non-ionising gases between the two pressure connections.
---|---
ÉCO 210-5| The device is designed as a manometer and measures even the
smallest pressure differential pressures of up to ±2000 hPa with a maximum
resolution of up to 1 Pa (at RANG = Slo and FVNC = FINE) in air or in non-
corrosive/non-ionising gases between the two pressure connections.
Usual applications include precise measurements of filter condition, gas flow
pressure, draught, leak integrity, dynamic pressure flow speed.
The pressure connection is made at the supplied interchangeable pressure
connection ports with suitable hoses – 4 different connection options are
available as standard, many other connection options can be used easily and
reliable with G 1/8 adapters.
The product must only be used under the conditions and for the purposes for
which it was designed.
It must be handled with care and used according to the technical data (do not
throw, strike, etc.). Suitable measures must be used to protect the pressure
connections and be protected from dirt and moisture.
Qualified personnel
For commissioning, operation and maintenance, the relevant personnel must have
adequate knowledge of the measuring process and the significance of the
measurements. The instructions in this document must be understood, observed
and followed.

Measurement Basics
Special functions
With the special functions that can be selected via the Configuration menu,
the device can be optimized for special measuring tasks. After it is switched
on, the device starts up in stand-ard measuring mode, the relevant special
function is started by pressing and holding the Function key for 4 s.
NVLL Tare function
The special function FVNC NVLL has been selected in the configuration menu.
The display can be zeroed by pressing the Function key for 4 s. If the tare
function is activated, NVLL blinks in the lower display. The tare function can
be reset by pressing the Function key again for 4 s.
Note
The tare function is independent of the zero point correction accessible via
the adjustment menu.
F,NE High-resolution measurement with 0.1 Pa (ECO 210-3) or 1 Pa (ECO 210-5)
ECO 210-3| High-resolution measurement for the finest adjustment work, 4
Pascal Test (test of chimney draft with living-space-independent single
combustion) and many other finely adjusted pressure applications.
---|---
ECO 210-5| High-resolution measurement for the finest adjustment work and many
other applications with the finest adjustment of pressure.
- In the Configuration menu, the special function FVNC F,NE has been selected.
- The high-resolution measurement can be activated by pressing and holding the Function key for 4 s. Then the sensor is immediately zeroed and the optimized parameters for this measurement are activated.
Caution
When starting the special function, make sure that there is no pressure at the
connections.
Note
The increased current consumption in this mode decreases battery life.
The increased current consumption in this mode decreases battery life.
The four bars in the lower display provide additional support.
- The two middle bars appear: Measurement is stable
- Left bars appear: the measurement decreases
- Right bars appear: the measurement increases
By pressing and holding the Function key for 2 s the special function can be deactivated. END FVNC appears in the display.
AVR 0:02 / AVR 0:05 / AVR 0: 10
Fast measurement with mean value over 2 s / 5 s / 10 s
- Mean value mode for measurement of heavily fluctuating pressures.
- In the Configuration mode, a special function AVR 0:02, AVR 0:05 or AVR 0: 10 has been selected.
- By pressing and holding the Function key for 4 s the measurement with mean value can be activated.
- Heavily fluctuating values arise particularly with dynamic pressure/compression measurements in chimney draft tests of forced-air burners and, consequently, conventional electronic manometers are not adequate for task. This special function optimizes the device for this application purpose.
- The different mean value times of 2, 5 or 10 seconds can be selected depending on the requirement.
- The first parameter is shown in the auxiliary display.
By pressing and holding the Function key for 2 s the special function can be
deactivated. END FVNC appears in the display.
If the tare function is active when calling up the special function AVR, it
can be reset by press-ing the function key for 4 seconds. In order to
reactivate tare, the special function must be changed in the configuration
menu.
Pressure Connection
The device measures the pressure difference between the two connection ports.
- [+] higher pressure
- [-] lower pressure
Measurement takes place against ambient air for relative pressure measurements, for which purpose the pressure hose is connected to [+], [-] remains free.
Note
Silicon hoses are not necessarily suitable for pressures up to 2 bar,
depending on dimensioning. Check for suitability!
Caution Air pressure at port variant UT!
With higher pressures greater than 1 bar, the hoses must be secured to prevent
unintended loosening. Suitable GDZ hose clamps are used for this purpose.
- 6×1 mm PVC (GDZ-01) up to 5 bar rel., vacuum-suitable!
- 6×1 mm PE (GDZ-02) up to 10 bar rel., vacuum-suitable!
- 6×1 mm PUR (GDZ-03) up to 9 bar rel., vacuum-suitable!
Replacement of pressure hoses
The pressure connections are screwed into the product with a standard G 1/8
inch thread with end seal. All common pressure connections with this design
can be connected.
Note
Use a suitable tool for tightening and observe the maximum torque of 2 Nm!
Supplied connection:
Operation and maintenance
Operating and maintenance notices
Note
Pressure connections must be protected from soiling.
Battery
Battery indicator
If the empty frame in the battery display blinks, the batteries are depleted
and must be re-placed. However, the device will still operate for a certain
length of time.
If the BAT display text appears in the main display, the battery voltage is no
longer adequate for operation of the device. The battery is fully depleted.
Danger Danger of explosion!
Using damaged or unsuitable batteries can generate heat, which can cause the
batteries to crack and possibly explode!
Only use high-quality and suitable alkaline batteries!
Caution Damage
If the batteries have different charge levels, leaks and thus damage to the
device can occur.
- Only use high-quality and suitable alkaline batteries!
- Do not use different types of batteries!
- Remove depleted batteries immediately and dispose of them at a suitable col-lection point.
Note
- Unnecessary unscrewing endangers the protection against moisture and should therefore be avoided.
- Read the following handling instructions before replacing batteries and follow them step by step.
- If disregarded, the device could be damaged or the protection from moisture could be diminished.
- Unscrews the Phillips screws (A)and remove the cover.
- Carefully replace the two Mignon AA batteries (B). Ensure that the polarity is correct! It must be possible to insert the batteries in the correct position without using force.
- The O-ring (C) must be undamaged, clean and positioned at the intended depth.
- Fit the cover (D) on evenly. The O-ring must remain at the intended depth!
- Tighten the Phillips screws (A).
Disposal
Separation by material and recycling of device components and packaging must
take place at the time of disposal. The valid regional statutory regulations
and directives applicable at the time must be observed.
Note
The device must not be disposed of with household waste. Return it to us,
freight prepaid. We will then arrange for the proper and environmentally
friendly disposal.
Private end users in Germany have the possibility of dropping off the device at the municipal collection center. Batteries must be removed beforehand! Please dispose of empty batteries at the collection points intended for this purpose.
