Intended Use The temperature compensated Capacitance Diaphragm Gauges of the CMR 37X series are intended for absolute pressure measurement of gases in their respective pressure ranges (→ 3). Functional Principle A ceramic diaphragm is deflected by pressure. The deflection is measured capacitively and converted into an analog linear out- put signal by the digital electronics.

Status relay closed measurement mode warning open no supply voltage warming up error Supply DANGER The gauge may only be connected to power sup- plies, instruments or control devices that conform to the requirements of a grounded protective extra- low voltage (SELV) and limited power source (LPS), Class 2.
Installation WARNING WARNING: fragile components The ceramic sensor may be damaged by impacts. Do not drop the product and prevent shocks and impacts. Vacuum Connection DANGER DANGER: overpressure in the vacuum system >1 bar Injury caused by released parts and harm caused by escaping process gases can result if clamps are opened while the vacuum system is pressurized.

DANGER DANGER: protective ground Products that are not correctly connected to ground can be extremely hazardous in the event of a fault. Electrically connect the gauge to the grounded vacuum chamber. This connection must conform to the requirements of a protective connection ac- cording to EN 61010: •...

Mount the gauge so that no vibrations occur. The gauge may be mounted in any orientation. To keep conden- sates and particles from getting into the measuring chamber preferably choose a horizontal to upright posi- tion. If adjustment should be possible after the gauge has been installed, be sure to install it so that the but- tons can be accessed with a pin (→...
Power Connection Make sure the vacuum connection is properly made (→ 13). DANGER The gauge may only be connected to power sup- plies, instruments or control devices that conform to the requirements of a grounded protective extra- low voltage (SELV) and limited power source (LPS), Class 2.

Operation Put the gauge into operation. A warm-up time of at least ½ hour should be allowed; for exact pressure measurements a warm-up time of at least 2 hours is required. Status Indication For factory setting only STATUS ZERO LED status Meaning <STATUS>...
For adjusting the zero, operate the gauge under the same con- stant ambient conditions and in the same mounting orientation as normally. The output signal (measuring signal) is depending on the moun- ting orientation. The signal difference between the vertical and horizontal mounting orientation is: F.S.
Page 20
Operate the gauge for at least 1 hour (until the signal is stable). Briefly press the <ZERO> button with a pin (max. ø1.1 mm). The zero adjustment runs automatically. The <STATUS> LED blinks until the adjustment (duration ≤8 s) is completed.

It also permits to adjust an offset of the characteristic curve in order to • compensate for the offset of the measuring system or • obtain a slightly positive zero for a 0 … 10 V AD converter. The offset should not exceed 2% of the F.S. (+200 mV). At a higher positive offset, the upper limit of the measurement range is exceeded.

Deinstallation WARNING WARNING: fragile components The ceramic sensor may be damaged by impacts. Do not drop the product and prevent shocks and impacts. DANGER DANGER: contaminated parts Contaminated parts can be detrimental to health and environment. Before beginning to work, find out whether any parts are contaminated.
