Safety
Intended use
The pressure sensor SPAN is intended for monitoring pressure of compressed air
and inert gases in the piping.
General safety information
Only use the product in its original status, without any unauthorised modifications.
Only use the product if it is in an excellent technical status.
The product is intended for use in industrial environments. Measures may need
to be implemented in residential areas for radio interference suppression.
Take into consideration the ambient conditions at the location of use.
Operate the product only with compressed air of the specified air quality class
(è Technical data).
Observe the specifications on the rating plate.
Comply with all applicable national and international regulations.
Disposal
Observe the local specifications for environmentally friendly disposal.

Function and application
The sensor converts pneumatic pressure values (relative pressure) into electrical
signals, which can be used for control or regulating functions. Measurements are
carried out using a piezoresistive sensor element with a following electronic evalu
ation unit. Interfacing to the higher-level system is provided by 1 or 2 switching
outputs, an optional analogue output and an optional IO-Link interface.
The switching outputs can be configured for monitoring of a threshold value,
a pressure range or a differential pressure. The outputs can be set as PNP or NPN
and normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC). Via the IO-Link interface, process
values can be read out and parameters changed and transmitted to additional
devices.

TEACH mode
:
– 2 teach-in points (TP1, TP2)
– TP1 = SP.Lo, TP2 = SP.Hi

Auto difference monitoring d_|¯|_
This funciton permits monitoring of a pressure value for constancy.
If the applied pressure is constant in the range between [SP.Lo] and [SP.Hi], the refer
ence pressure PRef is automatically determined. The result is a switching operation at
the output. The signal change signals the start of pressure monitoring.
If the pressure remains in the monitoring range [d.SP] around PRef, the pressure is
stable. When the monitoring range is left (e.g. caused by a leakage in the system),
the output switches back.
Function
– Basic status after the operating voltage is switched on
– Display of the current measured value
– Display of the current settings
– Setting or modification of parameters
– Acceptance of the current measured value to determine switching
