Introduction
The GIA0420WK is a microprocessor controlled display device for 4 to 20 mA standard signal that can be
universally applied. It does not require its own auxiliary voltage source but can be supplied directly from
the measuring current.
The measuring value is displayed on a 4-digit LCD display with the max. display area ranging from -1999
to +9999 digits.
The GIA0420WK is designed for the connection of any measuring transducers (with a 4 to 20 mA output).
The operating range of the display device can be directly adjusted to the transmitter without any
accessories being required by simply entering the maximum and minimum measuring range limits as well
as the decimal point position.
Parameter and limit values are entered via three keys which are accessible after removal of the cover.
All programmable parameters of the GIA0420WK are saved in an EEProm; in case of a current failure they
will remain there for at least 10 years. The GIA0420WK is equipped with a self-diagnosis system
continuously monitoring the essential parts of the device for their perfect funtioning. Both the self-diagnosis
and the monitoring system for the measuring sensor for "sensor damage" and "short circuit in sensor" and/or
values exceeding or falling below permissible limits ensure maximum operational reliability of the device.
Prior to delivery the GIA0420WK will be tested and completely calibrated.
However, prior to you starting your operation make sure to configurate the device for your
application. Please also refer to chapter "Configuration".
Safety advice
In order to exclude any risk whatsoever for the operator the following points have to be observed:
a) Immediately switch off the device in case of visible damage or obvious malfunctions.
b) Make it a rule to always disconnect voltage source and device before opening it up. The entire device
and its connection have to be fingerproof after installation.
c) Standard regulations for operation and safety for electrical, light and heavy current equipment have to
be observed, with particular attention having to be paid to national safety regulations (e.g. VDE 0100).
d) Consider the contents of the EC-Type-Examination Certificate and the regulations refering the use of
electrical equipment for hazardous areas (e.g. VDE 0165).
e) When connecting a GIA0420 to other devices (e.g. PC) the interconnection has to be designed
most thoroughly as internal connections in third-party devices (e.g. connection GND with protective
earth) may lead to undesired voltage potentials.
f) Any changes or repair of the device is not allowed.
Please return device to manufacturer for repair or maintenance.
