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.
This operating manual is an integral part of the product and therefore needs to
be kept close to the instrument in a place that is accessible at all times to the re-
sponsible personnel.
The following sections, in particular instructions about the assembly, commis-
sioning and maintenance, contain important information, non-observance of
which could pose a threat to humans, animals, the environment and property.
The instrument described in these operating instructions is designed and manu-
factured in line with the state of the art and good engineering practice.
1.2 Personnel Qualification
The instrument may only be installed and commissioned by specialized person-
nel familiar with the installation, commissioning and operation of this product.
Specialized personnel are persons who can assess the work they have been
assigned and recognize potential dangers by virtue of their specialized training,
their skills and experience and their knowledge of the pertinent standards.
1.3 Risks due to Non-Observance of Safety Instructions
Non-observance of these safety instructions, the intended use of the device or
the limit values given in the technical specifications can be hazardous or cause
harm to persons, the environment or the plant itself.
The supplier of the equipment will not be liable for damage claims if this should
happen.
1.4 Safety Instructions for the Operating Company and the
Operator
The safety instructions governing correct operation of theinstrument must be
observed. The operating company must make them available to the installation,
maintenance, inspection and operating personnel.
Dangers arising from electrical components, energy discharged by the medium,
escaping medium and incorrect installation of the device must be eliminated.
See the information in the applicable national and international regulations.
Please observe the information about certification and approvals in the Tech-
nical Data section.
1.5 Unauthorised Modification
Modifications of or other technical alterations to the instrument by the customer
are not permitted. This also applies to replacement parts. Only the manufacturer
is authorised to make any modifications or changes.
1.6 Inadmissible Modes of Operation
The operational safety of this instrument can only be guaranteed if it is used as
intended. The instrument model must be suitable for the medium used in the
system. The limit values given in the technical data may not be exceeded.
The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper or incorrect
use.

1.7 Safe working practices for maintenance and installation work
The safety instructions given in this operating manual, any nationally applicable
regulations on accident prevention and any of the operating company's internal
work, operating and safety guidelines must be observed.
The operating company is responsible for ensuring that all required mainten-
ance, inspection and installation work is carried out by qualified specialized per-
sonnel.

2.3 Intended use
The DS13 is a switching device for differential pressure, over and under-pres-
sure for gaseous and fluid media. This series is ideally suited for various meas-
uring tasks in rough environments.
Typical application cases are the monitoring of tanks, filters and compressors.
Please contact the manufacturer before using this unit with dirty or aggressive
media because the unit needs to be adapted in terms of the parts that come into
contact with the media.
The device can be used as a functional safety components (SIL) as agreed with
the manufacturer (see order code).
The device is to be exclusively used for the applications agreed between the
manufacturer and the user.

2.5 Design and mode of operation
A sturdy non-sensitive diaphragm measuring unit that is suitable for measuring
differential pressure, and over and under-pressure is used as a measuring sys-
tem. The unit uses the same measuring principle for all three measuring applic-
ations.
In the rest position, the spring forces on both sides of the membrane are bal-
anced out. Due to the pressure or under-pressure to be measured, a single-
sided force is created on the membrane which shifts the membrane system
against the measurement range springs up to compensation of the spring
forces. In case of overload, the membrane supports against the metallic support
surfaces.
A centrally positioned tappet transfers the movement of the membrane system
onto the operating elements of the micro-switches.

3 Assembly
3.1 General
The device is designed for wall mounting.
NOTICE!At the factory, the device is calibrated for vertical installation and
only this installation position is allowed.
To ensure safety during installation and maintenance, we recommend installing
a suitable shut-off valve on the system (see accessories). A shut-off valve offers
the following advantages:
• The device can be depressurized or decommissioned.
• The device can be disconnected from the power supply within the applic-
able system for repairs or inspections.
• A function test of the device can be performed on-site.
3.2 Process connection
• By authorized and qualified specialized personnel only.
• The pipes need to be depressurized when the instrument is being connec-
ted.
• Appropriate steps must be taken to protect the device from pressure surges.
• Check that the device is suitable for the medium being measured.
• Maximum pressures must be observed (cf. Tech. data)
The pressure connections are marked with (+) and (-) symbols on the device.
When the differential pressure is measured, the higher pressure is connected to
the (+) side and the lower pressure to the (-) side.
+
Fig.5: Process connection
The pressure lines must be kept as short as possible and installed without any
tight bends to avoid delays.
The pressure lines must be installed at an inclination so that when fluids are
measured no air pockets are created or when measuring gases, no water pock-
ets are created. If the required inclination is not reached, water or air filters must
be installed at suitable places.
In the case of fluid measuring media, the pressure lines must be vented be-
cause different fluid columns in the lines will distort the measurements.
If water is used as a measuring medium, the unit must be protected against
frost.
Pulsating pressure on the system side can lead to wear and functional prob-
lems. To safeguard this, we recommend installing absorption elements in the
pressure line.

4.1 General
All electrical supply, operating and measuring lines, and the pressure connec-
tions must have been correctly installed before commissioning. All supply lines
are arranged so that there are no mechanical forces acting on the device.
Check that the pressure connections do not leak before commissioning.

Fig.9: Remove the cover hood
1. Remove the attachment screws (1) with a screwdriver. Ensure that the seal-
ing rings (2) do not get lost. The protection class is no longer guaranteed
without these sealing rings.
2. Remove the Makrolon in the hood (3) and the seal (4).
3. It is assembled in reverse order. The seal (4) must lie precisely in the
groove of the hood before the hood is screwed on.
