Page 5: Safety Information
5 of 36 Safety information General information To operate the vacuum gauge DCP 3000, at least one external pressure transducer VSK 3000 or VSP 3000 or MPT 100 is required! Read and comply with this manual before installing or operating the equip- NOTICE ment. -
Page 6: Ambient Conditions
page 6 of 36 • Comply with max. permitted ambient and gas temperature (see ”Technical data”) and make sure ventilation is adequate if the equipment is installed in a housing or if ambient temperature is elevated. • Avoid high heat supply (e.g., due to hot process gases). • In case of residues or aggressive or condensable media install a gas washing bottle if necessary. -
Page 7: Maintenance And Repair
page 7 of 36 Operation with pressure transducer VSP 3000: ☞ Attention: Maximum pressure reading: 1*10 mbar. Pressure values above 1000 mbar can not be displayed. Danger of unnoticed overpressure! Risk of burst- ing! Operation with pressure transducer MPT 100: ☞ See instructions for use of MPT 100. • Use only genuine spare parts and accessories. Otherwise safety and perform- ance of the equipment as well as the electromagnetic compatibility of the equip- ment might be reduced. -

Page 13: Changing The Vacuum Connector At Pressure Transducer Vsk 3000
page 13 of 36 Changing the vacuum connector at pressure transducer VSK 3000 Installing the hose nozzle: Unscrew the flange (using a 17 mm open-end wrench, if necessary) to expose the compression fitting (1). Slip the compression nut, and then the ferrule, onto the smooth end of the supplied hose nozzle (2). Slide the smooth end of the hose nozzle onto the compression fitting on the VSK 3000 gauge head, and tighten the compression nut firmly finger-tight (3). Installing the PTFE-tubing connection (PTFE-tubing ID: 8mm, OD: 19mm): Unscrew the flange (using a 17 mm open-end wrench, if necessary) to expose the compression fitting (1). - Page 14 Readout of the pressure transducer via VACUU•BUS line by the vacuum gauge DCP 3000 using VACUU•BUS protocol. Maximum cable length inside buildings: 30m (extension cable VACUU•BUS 2m: order-no. 612552 / extension cable VACUU•BUS 10m: order-no. 2618493). Don’t use more than one DCP 3000 within a VACUU•BUS system. More than one DCP 3000 within the same VACUU•BUS system will interfere with each other and cause error messages of the connected components.

- Page 15 page 15 of 36 Prior to use ➨ Connect the gauge head VSK 3000 or VSP 3000 with connecting cable (VACUU•BUS line) to a socket at the rear side of the DCP 3000. ➨ Connect the gauge head to the vacuum chamber via the small flange connection, the hose nozzle or PTFE tubing. Avoid contamination (oil/oil mist) of the gauge head when generating the vacuum with an oil-filled vacuum pump. ☞ Do not mount the gauge head directly at the oil-sealed pump. The diameter of the pipelines should be as large as possible.

Page 19: Connecting Several Pressure Transducers
page 19 of 36 Connecting several pressure transducers It is possible to connect several external pressure transducers simultaneously to the DCP 3000. Maxi- mum number of pressure transducers of the same type (VSK 3000 or VSP 3000) connected to one DCP 3000: four. Alternatively connect 1 x MPT 100 instead of one VSP 1000 from DCP 3000 software version 2.03 or 4 x MPT 100 instead of VSP 1000 from DCP 3000 software version 2.22. That is a total of eight external pressure transducers at maximum. Up to four additional pressure transducers VSK 3000 may be connected as reference if configured accordingly (see ”Measuring differential pressure”). Only the reading of one pressure transducer is displayed at a time. ☞ The VACUU•BUS address of the active and displayed pressure transducer is shown in the upper left corner (status line). -
Page 20: Measuring Differential Pressure
page 20 of 36 Measuring differential pressure A differential pressure between two pressure transducers can only be determined and indicated be- tween two pressure transducers VSK 3000 connected to the DCP 3000. ☞ This requires one of the two pressure transducers to be defined as reference (e.g., VACUU•BUS ad- dress ”Ref. 1”). ☞ In addition, both pressure transducers have to be configured to corresponding VACUU•BUS ad- dresses (VSK x and Ref. x). If the two addresses do not correspond (VSK x and Ref. y), no differen- tial pressure will be determined or displayed. Then it is necessary to reconfigure the address of one pressure transducer to enable differential pressure measurement (see section ”Reconfiguring the pressure transducer”.) ➨ The displayed pressure value is: (”pressure value of Ref. x” minus ”pressure value of VSK x”) mbar... -
Page 21: Setpoints
21 of 36 Setpoints Valves (see accessories) can be used after appropriate configuration to set setpoints to open or close a valve. The digital I/O interface can be used as interface for existing (provided by the customer) isolation, cool- ant or venting valves or a VACUUBRAND VMS module, if these components are not equipped with a VACUU•BUS connection. The component has to be connected to the output of the module (an addi- tional voltage supply is necessary). Each valve / digital I/O interface can be used to set a setpoint “On” and a setpoint “Off”. The setting range depends on the measuring range of the pressure transducer. -
Page 22: Interface Parameters
page 22 of 36 Interface parameters The DCP 3000 is equipped with a serial interface (RS 232C, nine-pole Sub-D-plug). ☞ Plug-in or remove the cable (cable RS 232C) from the interface only if the equipment is switched off. ☞ The interface is not electrically isolated from the measuring circuit. ☞ For optimal electromagnetic compatibility assemble an interface filter (cat. no.: 638235). ☞ The serial interface is prepared for the connection of a commercial Bluetooth adapter for wireless communication (current supply for Bluetooth adapter on pin 9, see ”Connector assignment”). ☞ Settings via interface are stored. Setting the interface Set the interface parameters directly at the DCP 3000. The factory set values are underlined. Edit and confirm the interface parameters in the function ”Configuration” in the menu ”RS-232” using the selection knob. -
Page 23: Notes Concerning The Function Data Logger (Recording And Sending Of Data)
page 23 of 36 Notes concerning the function data logger (recording and sending of data) • Maximum number of recordable readings is 32765. • During recording the runtime is displayed. • The data of all connected pressure transducers are recorded, i.e. for two pressure transducers maxi- mum 16382 readings per pressure transducer are recorded. • Recording starts, if ”Log data” is set to 1 ..3600 seconds (see menu ”Configuration - Log data”) and stops if ”Log data” is set to ”Off” or the device is switched off. • If the recording interval is changed, stored readings are deleted and recording starts again. • After power failure the recording interval is set to ”Off”, the stored readings can be read out further • ”Graphic” (with or without function ”log data”) displays maximum 240 readings of the selected pres- sure transducer. • If ”Graphic” with function ”log data” is selected it is possible to extend the time scale to the next inter- val if the displayed time scale is reached by turning the selection knob. -
