Installation 5 Installation 5.1 Installing/removing plug-in boards NOTICE Damage to unit from electrostatic discharge Electrostatic discharge damages electronic components. Defects resulting from failure to comply with this warning shall result in loss of any warranty claim entitlement. ► Carry out all work on ESD-protected workstations only, in compliance with the appropriate work- ing methods.
Installation Procedure 1. Make sure that the TPG is switched off. 2. Despite being partially screened, do not lay the gauge cable parallel with cables with too much interference. 3. Connect the gauge with the measuring cable to the "IKR" connection on the measurement board. 4.
With voltages < 50 V, you may use 4.8 × 0.8 mm insulated flat pin terminals. However, Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends using the relay plug, as the relay plug enables fast discon- nection of the connection as well as strain relief.
Installation Connecting relays (IF 300B) Screened cable is not required for the connection. 1. Only carry out work on the plug when it is de-energized. 2. In general, use the relay plug for voltages ≥ 50 V for safety reasons. 3.
Installation 4. Make sure that components to be connected externally contain the technical data of the plug-in board. 5. Use a suitable interface cable to connect the interface. 5.3.6 Connecting "Profibus-DP" interface of IF 300 P Details on the Profibus-DP interface You can find details on the Profibus-DP interface in the corresponding communication pro- tocol.
Operation 6 Operation Switching measuring circuit on or off externally (PE 300 DC9) ► First switch the gauge on manually or automatically if you want to control the gauge via the exter- nal input. ► Switch the measuring circuit on or off using one of the three options. ●...
Pirani measuring circuit. A zero point shift will necessitate recalibration or cleaning. Pfeiffer Vacuum has calibrated the gauge to standard values at the factory. However, as a result of indi- vidual scattering, gauge tolerances, gauge contamination or different cable lengths, you must accept deviations.
Malfunctions 8 Malfunctions Warranty Malfunctioning of the equipment as a direct result of contamination or wear, as well as wear parts, is not covered by the warranty. Malfunction Possible cause Remedy Gauge cable will not connect to IKR gauge. Old IKR gauge with MHV Use a correct cable.
