    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 Safety instructions  Please read this instruction manual carefully before installing the sensor & module and using it for the first time. Improper use will void any warranty! The correct function and operational safety of the module are guaranteed only under the environmental conditions specified in the ‘Technical data’...
  • Page 4: Preface

    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 Preface The measuring module is designed to record the partial pressure of oxygen in a gas atmosphere in conjunction with an oxygen sensor. Sensors of this kind work at high temperatures. Precautions should therefore be taken to prevent flammable gas mixtures reaching the sensor or the device.
  • Page 5: Introduction

    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 Introduction Measuring principle Oxygen measuring devices are designed to process signals transmitted by an oxygen sensor made from stabilised zirconia. Zirconia, a ceramic material that is also referred to as a solid state electrolyte, acts as an excellent oxygen ion conductor at high temperatures. Within certain temperature limits that depend on the doping of the material, ion conductors of this kind are able to fill empty spaces in their crystal lattice with oxygen ions.
  • Page 6: Measuring Module

    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 Measuring module The PZA series measuring module features the following functions: Measurement of the partial pressure of oxygen in conjunction with a separate Series A sensor. Select the PZA-MC25-N variant for diffusion-based measurements and the PZA-MC25-P variant for flow-based measurements (see separate instruction manual for...
  • Page 7: General Design

    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 General design Description of the measurement electronics The front of the unit is divided into different areas: the LED display, the sensor connector and the terminal strip. Starting up the device Switching on the measuring module The wiring of the measuring module is indicated in the circuit diagram. As soon as the power is switched on, the module is ready to start.
  • Page 8: Output Of Readings

    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 Output of readings The measuring module output the reading in a linear format. The default setting is 0-25% O ‘linear’ at 4-20 mA. Another measuring range (0-1000 ppm O ) can be activated using a terminal connection jumper. You can switch measuring ranges automatically via a potential- free contact.
  • Page 9: Practical Tip

    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 Practical tip It is often the case that the mA signal is not displayed within comfortable viewing distance of the measuring module. We therefore suggest that you temporarily remove the connections from the ‘-mA’ and ‘+mA’ terminals and connect up a standard portable mA multimeter instead.
  • Page 10: Interfaces

    PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 Interfaces Analogue interfaces There is one 4-20 mA analogue interface. Digital interfaces Semiconductor relay for combined alarm App for Android smartphones The app allows you to view readings and change configuration settings. First, the measuring module and the smartphone have to be paired via Bluetooth. We recommend how to do this below.
  • Page 11 PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 3. Following pairing, the app can be activated on the smartphone. 4. Select the Bluetooth module. The app now launches. To open a message, click on the icon shown on the right.
  • Page 12 PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 5. The following display opens. 6. After clicking on ‘Connect’, you will be prompted to choose a device. 7. Select the correct device.
  • Page 13 PZA-MC25_1620-17485-0002-E-0821 8. Communication begins after a few seconds and all of the parameters are transferred. 9. The app display shows the current values for Reference Point, Operating Point and Limit Value. You CANNOT make any changes here. The ‘BT’ LED on the device lights up in green. 10.
