4 INFO Terms Overpressure (+) Negative pressure ( ) Atmospheric pressure Fluctuations of the atmospheric pressure absolute 0 Pressure data Overpressure Pressure above the relevant atmospheric pressure. The reference point is the atmospheric pressure. Negative pressure Pressure below the relevant atmospheric pressure. The reference point is the atmospheric pressure. Differential pressure Pressure difference between 2 pressure measuring points. Relative pressure Overpressure or negative pressure relative to the relevant atmospheric pressure. The pressure data in all FEMA documents must be understood as relative pressure. Pressure (bar) Permissible operating pressure 20 bar Bursting pressure > 100 bar Therefore it is always the pressure difference in relation to the relevant atmospheric pressure. Overpressure receives a positive sign, negative pressure a negative sign. Absolute pressure Pressure below the absolute vaccum. Operating pressure (maximum permissible pressure) The maximum operating pressure is understood as the upper limit at which the function, the switching safety and the tightness are in no way impaired (see type overview for values). Bursting pressure (test pressure) For the component-tested types, it is certified by a pressure test confirmed by the TÜV that the bursting pressure reaches at least the values named in the type overview. It is true that the measuring bellows are permanently deformed in the pressure tests, but there has been no leakage or bursting of the pressure-bearing parts. The bursting pressure is as a rule a multiple of the permissible operating pressure. Setting range Pressure range in which the switching point can be set by the setpoint spindle. Pressure units Units bar mbar Pa kpa MPa (psi) lb / m 2 1bar mbar Pa x 10 4 Setting range bar 1kPa MPa The pressures are stated in bar or mbar in all FEMA documents. Pressure data for a pressure switch Example DWR 625: Setting range: bar Permissible operating pressure: 20 bar Bursting pressure: > 100 bar Important Note: All pressure data are overpressures or negative pressures compared with atmospheric pressure. Overpressures have a positive sign, negative pressure a negative sign. 4

5 INFO Terms Maximum pressure monitoring RSP = SP xd Pressure Minimum pressure monitoring RSP = SP+xd Pressure SP = Switching point RSP = Switching-back point xd = Switching differential (hysteresis) SP = Switching point RSP = Switching-back point xd = Switching differential (hysteresis) Switching differential The switching differential (hysteresis) is the pressure difference between the switching point (SP) and the switching-back point (RSP) of a pressure switch. The switching differential has tolerances resulting due to tolerances in the microswitches, springs and pressure bellows. The data in the type overviews are therefore always mean values. In the case of limiter functions, the switching differential is completely without importance since only the switching point at which the cut-off takes place is of interest and not the switching-back point. In the case of a controller function, i.e. for pressure switches, which are used for switching a burner, a pump etc. on and off, choose a pressure switch with adjustable switching differential.the switching frequency of the burner or of the pump can be influenced by changing the switching differential. Adjustable switching differential In the case of pressure switches with adjustable switching differential, the hysteresis can be set within the prescribed limits. The switching point (SP) and switching-back point (RSP) can be defined exactly. When adjusting the pressure switch, observe the position of the switching differential or the type of factory adjustment. Some pressure switches are adjusted for falling pressure (e.g. DCM series), i.e. the switchover on falling pressure takes place at the scale value, the switching differential lies above this, switching-back occurs at the scale value + switching differential. If the pressure is adjusted for rising, the switch-over takes place at the scale value, switching back at the scale value switching differential (see direction of action). The type of adjustment is stated in the data sheets. Direction of action In principle every pressure switch can be used both for maximum pressure and for minimum pressure monitoring. Pressure limiters the direction of action of which (max. or min.) is mandatory are an exception to this. It must only be noted that the scale reading can deviate by the switching differential. Refer to the example further below: scale value is 2.8 bar. Maximum pressure monitoring Under rising pressure,switch-over occurs on reaching the set switching pressure (SP).The switching-back point (RSP) is lower by the switching differential. Overpressure (+) Negative pressure ( ) Pressure (e. g. 0.6 bar) Atmospheric pressure absolute 0 (e. g bar) Pump on (scale value) SP = Switching point RSP = Switching-back point Pump off Minimum pressure monitoring Under falling pressure, switch-over occurs on reaching the set switching pressure (SP). The switching-back point (RSP) is higher by the switching differential. Direction of action in the negative pressure range The definition of the direction of action in the negative pressure range is especially important. Rising here does not mean rising vacuum, but rising pressure (viewed from absolute 0 ). Falling pressure means rising vacuum. Example: Vacuum switch, set to 0.6 bar falling means: Under falling pressure (rising vacuum), switch-over occurs at 0.6 bar (SP). The switchingback point is higher by the switching differential (e.g. at 0.55 bar). Data for the adjustment of a pressure switch To define the switching point of a pressure switch exactly, it is always necessary to determine the direction of action as well apart from the pressure data. The statement rising means that switching over is triggered at the determined setting value, if the pressure rises.the switching-back point is then lower by the switching differential. The statement falling must be understood analogously. Important data for the adjustment of a pressure switch: Apart from the switching point, also state the direction of action (falling or rising). Example of the selection of a pressure switch: A pump has to be switched on at 2.8 bar and switched off again at 4.2 bar. Selected type: DCMV 6 according to data sheet DCM. Adjustment: Scale pointer to 2.8 bar (lower switching point). Switching differential to 1.4 bar (adjust according to pressure gauge). Cut-off point: 2.8 bar bar = 4.2 bar. 5

7 INFO General information on explosion protection Basic principle The basic principle of explosion protection consists in preventing the simultaneous occurrence of: a) Combustible substances (gas, vapour, mist or dust) in quantity threatening danger b) Air (or oxygen) c) Ignition sources The constant oroccasional occurrence ofexplosible mixtures according to a and b frequently cannot be avoided, therefore care must be taken in the operation of electrical systems that no ignition sources can arise. For this purpose there are the following European standards, which are resolved by the technical committee CENELEC and are recognized in all EU countries. x General provisions EN x Oil immersion o EN x Pressurized apparatus p EN x Powder filling q EN x Flameproof enclosure d EN x Increased safety e EN x Intrinsic safety i EN x Encapsulation m EN The directives relevant for the FEMA products are apart from the General provisions EN the Flameproof enclosure d and the Intrinsic safety i. Flameproof enclosure d Switching elements and other electrical functional units which can ignite an explosible mixture are enclosed in a housing which withstands in the interior the explosion pressure in an explosion and prevents transmission to the surrounding atmosphere. EEx-d Intrinsic safety i The equipment used in the explosion endangered area contains only intrinsically safe circuits. A circuit is intrinsically safe if the energy quantity is so small that no spark and no thermal effect can arise. EEx-i Zone classification Zone classification for areas, which are explosion endangered by combustible gases, vapours or mist: Explosion endangered rooms are classified into zones according to the probability of the occurrence of a dangerous explosible atmosphere. In the assessment of the explosion risk, i. e. in determining explosion endangered areas, the Directives for avoiding the dangers due to explosible atmosphere with collection of examples (ExRL) of the Chemical Employers Liability Insurance Association must be taken into account.if it is a question of special cases,or if doubts exist concerning the determination of explosion endangered areas, the supervisory authorities (Trade Supervisory Office, possibly with cooperation of the Employers Liability Insurance Association or the Technical Control Association) decide. In Zones 0 and 1 only electrical equipment for which a design test certificate of a recognized testing agency exists may be used. In Zone 0, however, only those which are expressly approved for this. In Zone 2 the equipment approved for use in Zones 0 and 1 may also be used. Also electrical equipment which corresponds to the requirements in VDE 0165/9.83, Section6.3canbeusedinZone2. Dangerous, explosible atmosphere present Ex /01 constant or long term Zone 0 comprises areas in which dangerous explosible atmosphere is present constantly or long term. This includes as a rule only the interior of containers or the interior of apparatus (evaporators, reaction vessels etc.) if the conditions of the definition of Zone 0 are fulfilled. (according to ExRL) 7

8 INFO General information on explosion protection occasionally infrequently and short term Zone 1 comprises areas in which it can be expected that dangerous explosible atmosphere occurs occasionally. This can include the following: x The closer vicinity of Zone 0 x The closer vicinity of feed openings x The closer area around filling and emptying equipment x The closer area around fragile apparatus or lines made of glass, ceramic and the same x The closer area around not sufficiently sealing glands, e. g. on pumps and slide valves x The interior of apparatus such as evaporators, reaction vessels (according to ExRL) Zone 2 comprises areas in which it can be expected that dangerous explosible atmosphere occurs only infrequently and then also only short term. This can include the following: x Areas surrounding Zones 0 or 1 x Areas around flange connections with flat gaskets of customary construction in pipelines in enclosed rooms Explosion group The requirements on the explosion protected equipment depend upon the gases and/or vapours present at the equipment. This influences the required gap dimensions for the flameproof enclosure and in the case of intrinsically safe circuits the maximum permissible current and voltage values.gases and vapours are therefore classified according to different explosion groups. The dangerous nature of the gases increases from explosion group IIA to IIC, whereby equipment which is approved for IIC can also be used for all other explosion groups. Temperature class The maximum surface temperature of equipment must always be less than the ignition temperature of the gas or vapour mixture. The temperature class is therefore a measure of the maximum surface temperature of a piece of equipment. Temperature class Ignition temperature hc Maximum surface temperature hc T1 > T2 > T3 > T4 > T5 > T6 > Identification of explosion protected electrical equipment In addition to the normal data (manufacturer, type, serial number, electrical data) the data concerning the explosion protection must be included in the identification. The following identification is specified in the European standards based on the IEC recommendations: Ex /01 Example: EEx d IIC T 6 Identification for equipment which is certified by an EU test agency Symbol for equipment which is built according to European standards Identification of the ignition protection type used Explosion group Temperature class In addition the test agency and the number of the conformity certificate must be stated. 8

9 INFO Pressure monitoring in explosion-endangered areas Pressure switches with special equipment can also be used in the Ex area Zone 1 and 2. Ex area Ex area Ex area The following alternatives are possible: 1. Pressure switch with pressure-proof encapsulated switching device, degree of protection EEx de IIC T6 The pressure switch in pressure-proof encapsulation can be used directly in the Ex area (Zone 1 and 2). Maximum switching voltage, switching capacity and ambient temperature must be taken into account and the rules for the installation in the Ex area must be observed. All pressure switches can be equipped with Ex switching mechanisms. Special circuits as well as versions with adjustable switching differences are not possible. 2. Pressure switches in EEx-i-version All pressure switch in normal version can be used in the Ex area Zone 1 and 2 if they are incorporated in an intrinsically safe circuit. In principle the intrinsic safety is based on that fact that the control circuit run in the Ex area carries only a small amount of energy which is not able to generate ignitable sparks. Isolating switching amplifiers, e. g. Type Ex 011 or Ex 041 must be tested by the PTB and approved for Ex-installations. Isolating switching amplifiers must in any event installed outside the Ex zone. Pressure switches which are intended for EEx-ia installations can be equipped with blue terminals and cable entries. Because of the low voltages and currents which are carried by the contacts of the microswitch, gold plated contacts are recommended (additional function ZF 513). 3. Pressure switches with microswitch and series resistor for wire breakage and short circuit monitoring A combination of pressure switch with mechanical microswitch connected with a 1.5 k series resistor and a 10 k parallel resistor and an isolating switching amplifier in safety technology (Type Ex 041) can also be used for Ex zone 1 and 2 (degree of protection EEx-ia). The isolating switching amplifier in safety technology generates an intrinsically safe control circuit and simultaneously monitors the supply line between the isolating switching amplifier and pressure switch for short circuit and line break.

This list of criteria does not claim to be complete. However, all items must be checked. The stated sequence is expedient but not mandatory. 10

11 INFO Pressure switches General description Mode of operation The pressure applied in the sensor housing (1) acts on the measuring bellows (2). Pressure changes lead to movements of the measuring bellows (2) which are transferred through a pressure pin (4) to the switching rocker (5). The switching rocker is supported on hardened pivot points (6). As the pressure increases the switching rocker (5) moves upwards and operates the microswitch (7).The spring (8), the initial stress of which can be changed by the setting screw (9) (switching point setting), acts as opposing force. The traveling nut (10) is moved by turning the setpoint spindle and the initial stress of the spring (8) is changed. The screw (11) serves for the internal adjustment of the microswitch. The counterpressure spring (12) ensures stable switching behaviour, even for low setting values. 1 = pressure connection 2 = measuring bellows 3 = sensor housing 4 = pressure pin 5 = switching rocker 6 = pivot points 7 = microswitch or other switching elements 8 = setpoint spring 9 = setting spindle (switching point setting) 10 = traveling nut (switching point indicator) 11 = adjusting screw for microswitch 12 = counterpressure spring Pressure sensors With few exceptions in the low pressure range, all pressures sensors are equipped with measuring bellows, partly made of a copper alloy but mostly in high stainless steel quality. In comparison with the permissible values, the measuring bellows are subject to low loads and move only slightly. This results in long service life with low switching point drift and high overpressure safety. The movement of the measuring bellows is also restricted by an internal stop so that the forces resulting from the overpressure can not be transmitted to the switching mechanism. The parts of the sensor in contact with the medium are welded together without additional materials and the sensors contain no seals. Cu bellows which are used for low pressure ranges are soldered to the sensor housing. The sensor housing and all parts in the unit in contact with the medium can also be manufactured completely in stainless steel (series DNS).The individual data sheets contain exact data on materials. Pressure connection The pressure connection is designed in accordance with DIN for all pressure switches (pressure gauge connection G 1/2A). They can also be connected optionally to the internal thread G 1/4 in accordance with ISO 228 Part 1. The centering pin must then be removed. Max. screw-down depth on the internal thread G 1/4 = 9 mm. Centering pin When connected to the external thread G 1/2 with seal in the thread (i. e. without the sealing washer customary in the pressure gauge connection), the centering pin must be removed. Differential pressure switches have two pressure connections (max. and min.) and must be connected to one internal thread G 1/4 each. 11

16 Pressure switches Adjustment instructions Adjusting the pressure switches Slight deviations between setting value and switching point are unavoidable due to tolerances and spreads in the characteristics of the sensors and springs, as well as due to friction and the switching kinematics. The pressure switches are adjusted as a rule so that the setpoint adjustment and the actual switching pressure agree best in the middle range. Possible deviations are distributed towards both sides evenly. In the factory adjustment, which is performed on each individual unit, the scale value and the relevant switching point must be brought into agreement. This can be done in two ways: 1. Adjustment at the lower switching point The setpoint x S corresponds to the lower switching point, the upper switching point x O is higher by the switching differential x d. 2. Adjustment at the upper switching point The setpoint x S corresponds to the upper switching point, the lower switching point x U is lower by the switching differential xd. Setting the switching pressures Clockwise: lower switching pressure Counterclockwise: higher switching pressure The type of adjustment which was selected is stated in the technical data of the relevant type series. Before the adjustment, loosen the set screw located above the scale by approx. 2 turns and tighten it again after the setting. The switching pressure is set on the spindle. The set switching pressure can be read off on the scale. Accurate setting of the switching points is possible only with a pressure gauge. Direction of action of the adjustment spindle Changing the switching differential Clockwise: larger differential Counterclockwise: smaller differential (only for switching mechanism with suffix V, ZF 203) By means of set screw inside the spindle. The lower switching point is not changed by the differential adjustment, only the upper switching point is shifted by the differential. The switching differential changes by 1/4 of the total differential range for one turn of the differential screw. The switching differential is the hysteresis, i.e. the pressure difference between switching point and switching back point. For steam pressure switches of the type series DWAMV and DWR-203, the direction of action of the differential screw is reversed. Lead seal of the adjustment spindle (only for plug connection housing 200) The adjustment spindle for setpoint and switching differential can be covered and sealed with the sealing parts available as accessories (type designation: P) consisting of sealing plate and capstan headed screw. The sealing parts can also be attached subsequently. The lacquered adjustment screws are also covered with them. 16

17 Pressure limiters with switching status lock (restart lockout) In limiter functions it is frequently necessary to retain and lock the shutdown status and to release the lock and switch on the system again only after the causes that led to the safety shutdown have been eliminated. There are two possibilites for this: 1. Mechanical lock inside the pressure switch A bistable microswitch is built into the limiters instead of the microswitch with automatic reset. When the value set on the scale is reached, the microswitch switches over and remains in this position. The lock must be released by pressing the unlocking button (marked by a red dot on the scale side of the switching device). According to version, the lock can be effective with rising or falling value. Unlocking can take place only if the pressure has dropped by a certain amount or in the case of locking it has risen back to the lower switching point. When the pressure limiter is selected, a distinction must be made between maximum pressure and minimum pressure monitoring. EEx-d-versions cannot be delivered with internal locking. 1.1 Maximum pressure limitation Switching over and locking with rising pressure. Additional function ZF 205. Connection to terminal 1 and Minimum pressure limitation Switching over and locking with falling pressure. Additional function ZF 206. Connection to terminal 2 and 3 2. External electrical interlock in the switchgear cabinet A pressure monitor (microswitch with automatic reset) can also be used as limiter if an electrical interlock is connected in series. In pressure limitation in steam and hot water boilers, the external interlock is permissible only if it is ensured that the pressure monitor is of special construction. 2.1 Maximum pressure limitation with external interlock 2.2 Minimum pressure limitation with external interlock DW = pressure monitor T1 = STOP T2 = START S = signal (as required) K1 = relay with self-hold DW = pressure monitor T1 = STOP T2 = START S = signal (as required) K1 = relay with self-hold safety circuit safety circuit When the interlock circuit shown above is used, the requirements in accordance with DIN 57116/VDE 0116 are fulfilled if the electrical equipment such as contactors or relays of the external interlock circuit correspond to VDE 0660 of VDE 0435 respectively. 17

18 Type code Explanation of the type designations The type designation of the FEMA pressure switches consist of a letter combination and a subsequent number which identifies the setting range. Additional functions and design alternatives are given an additional code number which is separated from the basic type by a hyphen.

This is not possible with any other series or on explosion-proof versions. Technical Data Basic complement Switching interval Switching differential Options The technical data of the two-stage pressure switches are contained in the data sheets applicable to the basic types in question. This also applies to all application limits, such as temperature, max. pressure, installation position, degree of protection, electrical data, etc. The principal dimensions are also the same as for the single-stage pressure switches with comparable pressure ranges and configurations. The basic complement of every two-stage pressure switch includes a switching device with 2 microswitches, single-pole switchover in each case. Switch I is used to monitor the lower pressure and Switch II the higher. The setting ranges stated in the data sheets for the basic types are exactly the same for two-stage pressure switches. It should be noted that the switching differentials of the individual microswitches cannot be exactly identical on account of component tolerances. The switching interval of the two microswitches is the interval (in bar or mbar) between the switching points of the two microswitches. Example: As pressure increases, a two-stage pressure switch switches on a warning light at 2.8 bar; if pressure continues to increase, the system is shut off at 3.2 bar. The switching interval is = 0.4 bar. The following applies to all versions: The switching interval remains constant over the entire setting range of the pressure switch. When switching pressure settings are altered with the setting spindle S, the switching interval does not change; the switching points are displaced parallel to one another. The switching differential, i. e. the hysteresis of the individual microswitches, corresponds to the values for the basic types as stated in the Type Overview. In the case of two-stage pressure switches, the switching differential of the individual microswitches is not adjustable. Two-stage pressure switches are available in 3 different versions, each of which is identified by a ZF No. The various versions differ in their connection diagrams and in their electrical connection (terminal or plug connection).

The maximum possible switching intervals are stated in the Switching Intervals table. Setting wheel I CWreduce switching point at microswitch I Setting wheel II CCWraise switching point at microswitch II Setting wheels I and II have an internal stop to ensure that the microswitches cannot be adjusted past their effective range. Recommended settings for switching devices with ZF 217 Addition of the adjustment with setting wheels I and II provides the switching interval between the two microswitches. Changes made at the setpoint spindle do not affect the switching interval; the switching interval remains constant over the entire adjustment range of the spindle, the two switching points being displaced up or down in parallel. 1. Move setting wheels I and II to normal position. Turn setting wheel I fully CCW. Turn setting wheel II fully CW. 2. Set setpoint spindle S to a value on the scale which is central between the required top and required bottom switching point. 3. With pressure applied, set bottom switching point with setting wheel I (take into account direction of action pressure rising or falling). 4. With setting wheel II, proceed as under 3. above to set top switching point. 5.

27 Type series S2 Applications for two-stage pressure switches Example 1: Pressure dependent control of automatic pressure expansion controls and pressure maintenance stations Compressor Pressure monitors with two integral microswitches, which can be caused to switch over consecutively with rising of falling pressure, can considerably simplify monitoring and control of pressures. For example, minimum and maximum pressure monitoring and carried out with asinglepressure switch, thus eliminating the need for a second pressure switch with the installation cost involved. Step switching, for example pressure dependent control of a two-stage pump, is also possible with a pressure switch of this special series. Problem definition Pressure maintenance vessels and automatic pressure expansion controls generally incorporate a gas cushing, whose pressure must be kept constant within a certain range. When pressure is too low, a compressor is switched on; when pressure is excessive, a solenoid valve must be opened for blowing off. In between, there is a neutral zone in which the compressor and solenoid valve are at rest. Solution Suitable for this purpose are all pressure switches of Types DCM, DNM and DNS, each with additional function ZF 217 and circuit diagram A 2. All pressure ranges listed in the technical literature are possible. Specimen order: DCM 6 217/ A 2 Switchting function / Connection diagram Switch I: With falling pressure, contact 1 2 closes (Compressor ON) With rising pressure, contact 1 2 opens (Compressor OFF) Switch II: With rising pressure, contact 2 3 closes (Valve OPEN) With falling pressure, contact 2 3 opens (Valve SHUT) In between, there is a neutral zone in which neither the compressor is switched ON, nor the valve solenoid energized (REST position). Example 2: Maximum and minimum pressure monitoring in a nitrogen line Problem definition In a industrial process plant, the pressure in a nitrogen line is to be monitored. A green pilot light should indicate whether the pressure in the line is between 2.2 and 2.6 bar. If 2.2 bar is undershot or 2.6 bar overshot, the pilot light should extinguish or the plant should be shut down. Solution The first contact of a DCM pressure switch with 2 microswitches opens at 2.2 bar as pressure falls; the second microswitch opens at 2.6 bar as pressure rises. If a pressure of > 2.2 bar and < 2.6 bar prevails, the circuit is made via the two microswitches and the pilot light illuminates. Example 3: Filter monitoring with a 2-stage differential pressure manometric switch Problem definition Increasing contamination of a filter system is to be monitored by means of a differential pressure switch. Progressive contamination produces a higher differential pressure between input and output of the filter system. A green pilot light is to indicate normal operating state. When contamination reaches a certain level (differential pressure > 0.9 bar) the attention of the operating personnel is drawn to the necessity for changing the filter elements by a yellow pilot light. If this in not done and the differential pressure rises as a result of continuing contamination (e. g. to > 1.2 bar), the system is to be shut down. Solution A DDCM differential pressure switch switches over as differential pressure rises (at 0.9 bar), the green pilot light extinguishes. At the same time, the yellow light comes on (Filter Clean request). If the differential pressure continues to rise (to > 1.2 bar), the circuit is broken via contacts 4 6 of the second microswitch, the relay drops out and the system is shut off. green yellow 27

Of special construction The expression of special construction originates from the VdTÜV pressure Memorandum DRUCK 100/1, issue in which the requirements on pressure monitors and pressure limiters for steam boilers and hot water systems are determined. Used originally only for pressure monitoring in the steam and hot water area, the feature of special construction was taken over more and more as quality and safety argument for other applications as well. The following part describes the requirements on pressure limiters of special construction. Recommendations for the correct selection of pressure limiters are given by reference to safety analyses. A few definitions are necessary in advance. In advance some definitons are necessary The VdTÜV Memorandum DRUCK 100/1 distinguishes between the following terms: Pressure monitors (DW) Pressure monitors are devices which switch off the heating system on exceeding and/or not reaching a permanently set pressure limit and free the heating system again only after a change in pressure. Pressure limiters (DB) Pressure limiters are devices which switch off the heating system on exceeding and/or not reaching a permanently set pressure limit and lock this against automatic switching on. Pressure limiters of special construction (SDB) Pressure limiters of special construction fulfil the same tasks as pressure limiters.they must in addition fulfil the requirements regarding the extended safety according to Pressure 100/1, Section

29 Pressure limiters of special construction Safe conditions Firstly it is necessary to define the safe condition : According to DIN VDE 0660, Part 209, the safe condition of the system is reached if a cut-off command is present at the output contact which means that in the safe condition, the microswitch in the pressure limiter is actuated (opened) and the control circuit is interrupted. Series connected switching devices must react in the same way. The operating mode of the safety pressure limitation thus corresponds to the closed circuit principle. Additional requirements on pressure limiters of special construction Definition of Section 3.3 of the VdTÜV Memorandum: Pressure limiters of special construction must lead on breakage in the mechanical part of the measuring element to cut-off and interlock of the heating. This requirement is also fulfilled if the mechanical part of the measuring element is calculated for fluctuating loading or has withstood a test with 2 million operating cycles and the pressure loaded parts of the measuring element consist of corrosion-resistant materials. Abbreviated excerpt from VdTÜV Memorandum DRUCK 100/1 Accordingly there are 2 possibilities of fulfilling the requirements according to of special construction : a: By a pressure sensor which is designed so that a breakage in the mechanical part of the measuring element leads to cut-off to the safe side. b: By proof of an endurance test with 2 million operating cycles during the component test. 7 6 Fig. 1: Self-monitoring maximum pressure limiter with safety diaphragm DWAM...,DWAMV...,SDBAM a) Self-monitoring pressure sensor for maximum pressure monitoring Fig. 1 shows the cross-sectional diagram of a pressure sensor which fulfils the requirements on special construction. The measuring chamber is bordered by the housing (1), bottom (2) and measuring bellows (3). All parts consist of non-rusting steel and are welded together with one another without additional materials. On rising pressure the measuring bellows (3) moves upwards, supported by the back pressure spring (5). The setpoint spring installed in the switching mechanism acts as counterforce. A transfer bolt which transfers the pressure-dependent movements of the measuring bellows (3) to the switching mechanism located above is placed on the inside of the bottom. A plastic diaphragm (7), which is not in contact with the medium and in normal operation follows the movements of the measuring bellows but itself has no influence on the position of the bellows, is clamped in the upper part of the transfer bolt. On breakage of the measuring bellows (3), the medium can escape into the interior of the bellows.the medium pressure is now on the lower side of the diaphragm (PL). An additional force is generated because of the clearly larger effective area of the diaphragm compared with the bellows and this pushes the transfer bolt (6) upwards. This leads to cut-off to the safe side. The cut-off condition thus achieved is normally interlocked electrically or mechanically, so that the system also remains cut off when the pressure drops again. The plastic diaphragm (7) is not a pressure-bearing part, it has no function in normal operation and is effective only if a leakage occurs to the measuring bellows. Safety diaphragms of the described design are permissible up to 32 bar, this should be sufficient for most applications. Fig. 2: Pressure limiter without safety diaphragm (not self-monitoring) DWR... b) Pressure sensors with proof of 2 million operating cycles (DWR-series) In this design it is assumed that the pressure sensors which have withstood dynamic loading of 2 million operating cycles during component testing can be considered as reliable elements. They do not have an additional safety device in the sensor. Although the units are produced and tested with very great care, maximum pressure limiters without additional safety device can lead to dangerous conditions if errors which cannot be detected in the tests occur due to secondary effects. The causes for this can be: Hole corrosion due to deposited metal particles on the (usually very thin walled) bellows of the pressure sensor, material defects in the pressure bellows or broken open weld. Despite careful production and testing: A residual risk remains in maximum pressure monitoring. In the final analysis the user and operator of the systems must decide himself with which degree of safety he will monitor his pressure vessels. Pressure sensors without safety diaphragm are self monitoring when used in minimum pressure monitoring applications. 29

30 Pressure limiters of special construction Safety engineering considerations The direction of action must be observed The preceding description and the safety analytical consideration relate to monitoring the maximum pressure. The safe side here means: Cut off the energy supply (e.g. burner off) to avoid a further pressure rise. A completely different consideration is necessary for monitoring the minimum pressure.the safe side here means: Avoiding the pressure dropping further (example: hot water systems with external pressure retention or monitoring the water level in heating systems).the safety engineering consideration clearly gives preference here to the pressure limiter without safety diaphragm. In the case of leakage in the sensor, lower pressure is signalled and it switches over to the safe side. A pressure sensor without safety diaphragm is therefore of special construction within the meaning of the Memorandum DRUCK 100/1, if it is used as minimum pressure limiter. In reverse one must draw from this consideration the conclusion that pressure sensors with safety diaphragm, which offer considerable advantages in maximum pressure monitoring, may never be used for minimum pressure monitoring. Incorrect use can create a dangerous condition. It is therefore mandatory for the user and planner to observe the direction of action in the selection of the pressure limiters. It can be stated in summary: Pressure limiters of special construction with safety diaphragms offer the highest degree of safety in maximum pressure monitoring. Such devices may be used under no circumstances for minimum pressure monitoring. Pressure limiters of special construction with proof of 2 million operating cycles are selfmonitoring in minimum pressure monitoring, a residual risk remains in maximum pressure monitoring. Safety analysis in maximum pressure monitoring Devices with safety diaphragm (DWAM, DWAMV, SDBAM) If one considers the switch positions in the conceivable operating conditions, then the difference between the pressure sensors in of special construction becomes clear. The left column shows in each case normal operation in which the switch connects the terminals 3 and 1. The cut-off condition at too high pressure is shown in column 2, the control circuit is interrupted through the terminals 3 and 1. The difference produces the safety engineering consideration in column 3 in which the switch position is shown in the case of a leakage in the pressure sensor. The control circuit is interrupted in the case of a sensor in safety technique, whereas with a sensor without safety diaphragm the control circuit remains closed and thus a dangerous condition can arise. In pressure limiters of special construction, which are equipped with safety sensors, the following switch positions result in the different operating conditions: Normal- Limit Leckage in the operation not reached pressure sensor Control Control Control circuit circuit circuit closed interrupted interrupted Devices without safety diaphragm The special construction must also be proven by an endurance test with 2 million operating cycles. In the case of breakage/leakage (e.g. material defect, defect in the welds, hole corrosion), the system does not cut off to the safe side (no selfmonitoring). In the different operating conditions the following switch positions result in maximum pressure monitoring: In the case of leakage in the pressure sensor, the pressure monitors/limiters according to b) are not safe. A dangerous condition can arise. Normal- Limit Leckage in the operation not reached pressure sensor Control Control Control circuit circuit circuit closed interrupted closed!!! Dangerous condition! 30

31 Safety engineering analysis in maximum pressure monitoring Minimum pressure All minimum pressure monitors and minimum pressure limiters are self-monitoring within the meaning of Druck 100/1. Pressure limiters must interlock the cut-off state The Memorandum DRUCK 100/1 specifies that pressure limiters must cut off and interlock against switching on automatically. For this purpose, pressure limiters are offered with integrated mechanical interlock (reclosing lockout). The direction of action is also important in the selection of the interlock. According to direction of action it must be determined whether the interlock should take place on rising (maximum pressure monitoring) or falling (minimum pressure monitoring) pressure. External interlock is also possible A pressure monitor can become a pressure limiter if an electrical interlock is connected in series. The figures on page 13 show proposals for interlock circuits for maximum pressure and for minimum pressure monitoring. Naturally the direction of action must be observed when determining the circuit. So that the combination of pressure monitor with external interlock can be considered as limiter of special construction, the pressure monitor itself must fulfil the requirements on of special construction. Of special construction not only in steam and hot water systems? According to the current standards situation, pressure limiters of special construction are mandatory only for steam boilers according to TRD 604 and for heating systems according to DIN 4751 Part 2. They are considered to be failproof elements within the meaning of TRD 604 and can therefore be used in installations in 24-hour operation and in 72-hour operation (the TRD 604 contains further details on this). It would be appropriate to transfer the positive experience from pressure monitoring of steam boilers to other applications. Within the meaning of more safety it is desirable also to transfer the requirements on pressure limiters of special construction to other standards in the case of safety-relevant monitoring tasks. This applies especially for applications in the gas area, DIN 3398 Part 1 and 3 is responsible for this and for liquid fuels (DIN 3398 Part 4). Even more safety due to line breakage and short circuit monitoring The safety in maximum pressure monitoring can be increased further by additional measures. The microswitches, normally equipped with step action spring contact, can be equipped with positive opening contact (protection against contact sticking). The supply line to the pressure limiter is monitored for short circuit and interruption by an external isolating switching amplifier. In the case of faults in the supply line, the system cuts off to the safe side. EEx-d and EEx-i versions, combined with sensors of special construction open up the wide field of Ex applications in process engineering systems and in gas engineering. The DBS series is equipped with these additional safety features. It is apparent that safety can be improved significantly by skilful use of technical measures and a number of causes for the occurrence of dangerous conditions can be eliminated. But it is also apparent that a residual risk remains. Careful planning and conscientious maintenance and testing of existing systems are an absolute prerequisite for reliable pressure monitoring on pipelines and pressure vessels. 31

Over and above the requirements of the TRB, the pressure sensor is self-monitoring,i.e.intheeventofrupture of the pressure bellows, the pressure limiter switches off to the safe side. The pressure sensor thus complies with Special Design as defined in VdTÜV Code of Practice Pressure 100/1. The pressure limiters are operated in intrinsically safe control circuits (Explosionproof Protection EEx ia). When the Ex 041 isolating switching amplifier is used the control circuit is additionally monitored for circuit break and short-circuit.

40 Type series DBS Pressure monitors and pressure limiters for high safety applications More safety x x in process engineering and chemical installations, in gas and liquefied gas installation Features Special construction according to VdTÜV Memorandum for pressure Druck 100/1 Line breakage and short circuit monitoring Suitable for Ex zone (zone 1 + 2) (type of protection against explosion EEx-ia) Type of protection: IP 65 Type specific features Self-monitoring sensor Positive opening microswitches Gold-plated contacts TÜV, DVGW component tests Options Plastic-coated housing Limiter with internal interlock Safety requirements of special construction The pressure limiters in safety function offer a high degree of safety compared with normal pressure switches and are therefore especially suitable for chemical process engineering and thermal installations in which special attention must be paid to safety. The pressure switches can also be used in Ex zones (zone 1 + 2) and in any event require a Ex 041 isolating switching amplifier. The isolating switching amplifier is also responsible for monitoring the lines for short circuit and line breakage and therefore offer an additional safety advantage even in non-ex zones. In the case of Ex applications, the isolating switching amplifier must be installed outside the Ex zone. The lines between the Ex 041 isolating switching amplifier and the pressure switch are monitored for short circuit and line breakage. Pressure limiters of special construction (SDB) fulfill additional safety requirements, i. e. breakage or leakage in the mechanical part of the sensor must lead to shutdown towards the safe side. Or the product type must have passed a test with 2 Mio switching cycles and have a stainless steel sensor. In the safe engineering consideration, the control circuit which runs through the pressure limiter must also be included, for short circuit in the supply lines or other faults in the control current circuit can lead to dangerous conditions. Switching element with positive opening operation and gold-plated contacts The microswitch is equipped with positive opening operation. In contrast to the transmission of the plunger force through a snap spring customary in most microswitches, the newly developed microswitch is provided with an additional lever which transmits the movements of the pressure bellows positively to the contact lever. If the snap spring breaks, the contact lever is moved directly. Wire breakage and short circuit monitoring with isolating switching amplifier Ex 041 The resistor connected in series to the switching contact limits the current to a defined value with the switch closed. In the case of short ciruit between the isolating amplifier and the series resistor, the current rises above the predetermined limit value, the relay of the isolating amplifier drops down, the output current circuit is interrupted and thus the assured condition is achieved. In the case of wire breakage, the current flow is interrupted, the relay drops to the safe side and interrupts the output current circuit (safety chain). The isolating amplifier is built so that in the case of faults in the electronics (conductor interruption, component defect etc.) and in the consequential faults resulting from this, the safe shutdown condition is assumed. This property of the isolating amplifier with safety function, including wire breakage and short circuit monitoring, is confirmed by the TÜV. It corresponds to the regulations of DIN/VDE 0660, Part 209. Connection diagram See also data sheet Ex 041 In pressure monitoring in Ex areas, the isolating amplifier must be installed outside the Ex-zone. An inherently safe control current circuit (EExia) is conducted through the pressure limiter.

The sensitivity can be adjusted accurately with a coarse and fine potentiometer. The switching state is indicated by LED. The sensor element must be located in the flow. Function The flow monitors work according to the calorimetric principle. A temperature-sensitive resistor is heated. Heat is withdrawn by the flowing air and the resistance changes. This resistance change is evaluated. Since the resistance value also depends upon the temperature of the medium, the difference must be compensated for by a second temperaturedependent resistor.
