Short Description of the Product The CRP5 is a multifunctional clean room panel for the monitoring and control of all essential parameters of a clean room in research, development and production. The most important measurements are the high- precision determination of (differential) air pressure, relative humidity and temperature in clean rooms.

High immunity to dust and humidity in the environment The user can update the firmware to keep the CRP5 state-of-the-art at all times. The following diagram shows the function blocks: Figure 1: Overview of the function blocks of the CRP5 clean room panel _EN.docx...
6 of 39 Document Title Technical Drawings The CRP5 clean room panel is intended for mounting in walls or switch cabinet doors. The external dimensions are shown in the following drawings. Figure 2: CRP5 dimensional drawings with HC2-CRP front panel probe (left) and E2 connection for external HC2 probe (right)
The probe is connected to the CRP5 electronics by four stainless steel spring pins. The HC2-CRP probe sends its measured values to the CRP5 electronic evaluation unit in digital form.

The power supply is equipped with polarity protection. Differential Pressure Measurement The calibrated and thermally compensated differential pressure sensors used by ROTRONIC guarantee an exact and stable output signal over a wide temperature range. The piezoresistive diaphragm sensor is based on the principle of MEMS. This guarantees high immunity to dust and avoidance of cross contamination between the two spaces in which the pressure is measured.
When the simulation value has been activated, a defined simulation value is used instead of the current measured value. This makes it possible to test whether the CRP5 transmits a defined fictitious measured value to the monitoring system correctly to verify error-free communication.
In the standard version of the device the HC2-CRP probe is connected on the front panel via a magnetic holder. The CRP5 can optionally be delivered with an alternative E2 connection socket at the rear for connection of a remote HC2 probe via a connection cable.
2.6.1 Scaling of the Measured Parameters The scale can be changed at will with the ROTRONIC HW4 software in a range from -9,999 to +99,999. The limits of the sensor must, however, be observed. The devices have one of the following optional default settings on delivery.
Important: The CRP5 can be supplied with power via the AC3006 service cable. However, the valves for zeroing and calibration as well as the analog outputs are not active in this case. For sensor adjustment, the CRP5 must be supplied with power from a suitable power source.
Enter (finish entry) Note: Unauthorized use of the menu via the keys on the front panel can be prevented with the ROTRONIC HW4 software: Device Manager > Settings > Key Lock. After entering an own password and confirming it with OK, the message “Menu blocked”...

Document Title Mechanical Installation General The CRP5 can be flush-mounted in a wall. The position of the device has no influence on measurement. For exact measurements, the CRP5 must not be exposed to vibrations. Installation in the Wall Cut a suitable opening and drill holes according to the technical drawing.
The combined HC2-CRP humidity and temperature probe is connected at the front of the CRP5. It is fastened firmly and without risk of mix-ups on its holder by integrated magnets, and bonded to the electronics of the CRP5 by spring contact pins.
18 of 39 Document Title HC2 Connection Instead of a front-side HC2-CRP connection, the CRP5 can alternatively be ordered with an E2 socket at the rear for an external HC2 probe. This interface and its possible uses are described below. 3.5.1...
Note on installation planning: when determining the position of machinery and equipment, the rules given in EN 50170 should be followed with due regard to local circumstances. The CRP5 is tested for electromagnetic compatibility according to the EMC Directive 2004/108/EC and the following European standards:...
Units The default analog input unit is mV / mA. A user-specific unit can be configured in the ROTRONIC HW4 software (e.g. %, mbar, etc.). There is a maximum of four characters available for this. If three pre-decimal positions are relevant, the decimal is rounded to one digit.
1.1.3 Units The unit for the analog input can be selected by the customer via the Rotronic-HW4-Software or the Modbus protocol. If the user doesn't select his own unit, a basic unit will be selected, depending of the selected measure signal, [mV] for voltage or [mA] for current.

ROTRONIC HW4 software as “hPa”. Menu Mode In menu mode it is possible to configure much of the CRP5 with the keys and display on the front panel without using the ROTRONIC HW4 software. This mode is activated automatically by removing the combined HC2- CRP probe from the front panel or the external HC2 probe from the 7-pin E2 socket at the rear.

They do not normally need to be changed or recalibrated after factory calibration. For maximum accuracy, however, ROTRONIC recommend regular calibration of the device and adjustment when necessary. This can be done with the ROTRONIC HW4 software or the device display. The CRP5 does not need to be opened for calibration/adjustment.
Please follow the principle of temperature adjustment before humidity adjustment! Since the CRP5 does not have a real-time clock, the date of the adjustment is not written in the probe. If it is important to record the adjustment date, use the ROTRONIC HW4 software to adjust the probe.

The update can be installed via the path Service Interface > Service Cable AC3006 > PC-USB-Port or IP-Interface or via an IP connection between the CRP5 and the PC. The connection to the computer must remain intact throughout the update process and there must be a stable power supply for the complete duration of the process.
