Observe restrictions for use in potentially explosive atmospheres
(see section 4)
Pressure connection:
2 × G
¼

IP Ingress protection:
IP 54 (EN 60 529 / IEC 529)
Permissible vibration levels at the mounting point
T
As a matter of principle the instruments should only be mounted in locations
without a vibration load.
T
Isolation from a mounting point exposed to vibration can be achieved, for
example, by mounting the pressure gauge to a solid wall and a flexible
capillary connecting the measuring point to the pressure gauge (see
section 5).
T
The following limits must not be exceeded:
Frequency range < 150 Hz
Acceleration
< 0.7 g (7 m/s

)
Electrical contact
(applies to Model 702.02/03.100 and 851.02.100)
Adjustable range: from 10 % to 100 % of span
Switching point adjustment: from the outside by means of setpoint screw(s)
Contact hysterisis: max. 5 % of full-scale value

Note
4. Requirements for use in potentially explosive
atmospheres
The built-in Reed contacts (applies to Model 702.02/03.100 and
851.02.100) do
not
possess their own ignition source. For the
purposes of intrinsic safety they are 'simple apparatus' as defined
in EN 50 020.
When supplied from a tested and certified intrinsically safe circuit
(associated apparatus), these switches may be used in potentially
explosive atmospheres up to category 2 without having to take any
further measures.
