FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Safety guidelines | 1 1 Safety guidelines 1.1 General WARNING This operating manual contains instructions fundamental to the installation, op- eration and maintenance of the device that must be observed unconditionally. It must be read by the assembler, operator and the specialized personnel in charge of the instrument before it is installed and put into operation.
1 | Safety guidelines FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 1.6 Inadmissible Modes of Operation The operational safety of this instrument can only be guaranteed if it is used as intended. The instrument model must be suitable for the medium used in the system.
FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Product and functional description | 2 2 Product and functional description 2.1 Use as intended The EA16 is a measuring value display unit for measuring transducers with out- put signals for current and voltage acc. to IEC 60381. Up to four measuring transducers in two or three-conductor versions can be connected.
2 | Product and functional description FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 2.3 Design and mode of operation The measuring signals of up to four connected measuring transducers can be analysed simultaneously by the microcontroller electronics. The configurable 3.5" touch display can display up to four measuring values at the same time. A configurable colour switch serves to present specific operating modes.
FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Installation and assembly | 3 3 Installation and assembly The EA16 is designed for panel installation and is supplied fully assembled. Please see the supplied electro-technology documents for the dimensional drawings and information about the electrical connection of the panel. Panels can always be supplied in the following mounting types.
4 | Commissioning FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 4 Commissioning 4.1 General All electrical supply, operating and measuring lines, and the pressure connec- tions must have been correctly installed before commissioning. NOTICE Illustrations All illustrations are examples to demonstrate a certain situation. The contents of the screen may vary greatly on the unit.
FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Commissioning | 4 4.2 Measured value display There are two options for the measured value display presentation. • Tile view • List view The colour of the individual chapters can be changed depending on the respect- ive input signal.

FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Commissioning | 4 4.2.3 Presentation variants The unit is available in a 2-channel and 4-channel version. This setting is made ex-works. The detail views are identical to the detail views of the 4-channel version. The analogue inputs on both versions can be switched off individually. This status is indicated by OFF in the respective tile (or list).
4 | Commissioning FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 4.3 Control elements The unit is equipped with a TFT Touch LCD colour display. It is operated via a list menu and the input interfaces that depend on the functions. The touch function is not explained because so many devices have this state- of-the-art function.

5 | Parameterization FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 5 Parameterization 5.1 General Information The EA16 is a highly complex measured value display with a control system that can be learned intuitively. Due to its complex structure and the possibility of supplementing functions by means of a firmware update, it is not possible to present all functions in details in these operating instructions.
FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Parameterization | 5 5.3 Value input The following provides a description of the input interfaces that are used to enter the values. A differentiation is made between the input of numbers and the input of texts. The screens shown are examples only and may vary in terms of their layout and presentation.

FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Parameterization | 5 This is not necessary for dynamic filter monitoring. An approximation of the filter characteristic curve is calculated by determining some system-specific paramet- ers. This approximating characteristic curve can now be used to determine the level of soiling of the filter at any time without changing the ventilator speed.
