1 | Safety instructions FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 1 Safety instructions 1.1 General This operating manual contains basic instructions for the installation, operation and maintenance of the device that must be followed without fail. It must be read by the installer, the operator and the responsible specialist personnel be- fore installing and commissioning the device.
FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Safety instructions | 1 • evident damage to the instrument • failure of the electrical circuits • longer storage outside the approved temperature range. • considerable strain due to transport Repairs may be carried out by the manufacturer only.
1 | Safety instructions FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 1.8 Pictogram explanation DANGER Type and source of danger This indicates a direct dangerous situation that could lead to death or serious injury (highest danger level). 1. Avoid danger by observing the valid safety regulations.
FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Product and functional description | 2 2 Product and functional description 2.1 Use as intended The DE45 is a multi-functional switching unit with an optional transmitter output. It is suitable for measuring overpressure, under-pressure and differential pres- sure in gaseous media.

FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Product and functional description | 2 2.4 Design and mode of operation The device is based on a piezo-resistive sensor element that is suitable for measuring overpressure, underpressure and differential pressure. The pres- sures to be compared directly act on a silicon diaphragm equipped with piezo- resistive resistors.
3 | Installation FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH 3 Installation 3.1 General The device is designed for installation onto flat assembly plates. For screw con- nection to the assembly plate, the device features four assembly bores on its back, which can be used for Ø 3.5 mm tapping screws.
FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Installation | 3 If the pressure sensing lines are already pressurised at the time of commission- ing, zero-point control and adjustment cannot be performed. In such cases, the device should be only connected to the mains without the pressure sensing lines.

FISCHER Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH Commissioning | 4 Example The parameter Colour is set to Auto2. Only the green, yellow and red ranges are required here. To fade out the lower ranges red and yellow, the switch thresholds "red-yellow switching" and "yellow-green switching" are set to the start of the measuring range.
