4. Design and function
4.6 Pressure connections
■
Differential pressure instruments are connected to the
j
and the
i
connections of the
instrument.
■
Relative pressure instruments are connected to the
j
connection (
i
connection is
open to atmosphere).
■
Instruments for negative gauge pressure are connected to the
i
connection
(
j
connection is open to atmosphere).
Only connect test and calibration installations once the system has been
depressurised!
Never perform functional tests with compressed or medical air. This can
damage instruments with low pressure ranges.
The connection to the low-pressure controller is made via a 6.6 x 11 mm pressure connec-
tion. The hose diameter should be 6 mm.
4.7 Overpressure protection
