… highlights important information for efficient

and smooth operation.

Tip!

… indicates recommendations that are not spe-

cifically necessary in certain situations but which

could be useful.

2 Application purpose

The bus-capable 2-channel transmitter is suitable

for measuring pressure, under-pressure, and differ-

ential pressure in neutral gaseous media.

3 Description of the product

3.1 Function diagram

3.2 Design and mode of operation

The basis of this transmitter comprises two piezore-

sistive sensors.

The pressure that is to be measured acts upon a

silicone membrane that is equipped with a resistor

bridge. The acting pressure causes the membrane

to move and therefore a change in resistance. The

bridge signal is analysed by the integrated electron-

ics and converted to a pressure value. This is for-

warded to the overriding control system via an inter-

face on request.

The device also has connection options for up to 4

proximity switches whose status is recorded via the

bus system.

4 Installation and assembly

All supply lines are arranged so that there are no

mechanical forces acting on the device.

The device is set ex-works for vertical installation,

however any installation position is possible.

4.1 Process connection

•By authorized and qualified specialized person-

nel only.

•The pipes need to be depressurized when the

device is being connected.

•Appropriate steps must be taken to protect the

device from pressure surges.

•Check the suitability of the device for the media

to be measured.

•Maximum pressures must be observed.

•Check that the pressure connections do not

leak before commissioning.

3 | 12 Page

The pressure sensing lines need to be kept as short

as possible and installed without sharp bends to

avoid interfering delay times.

The pressure connections are marked with (+) and

(-) symbols on the device. For differential pressure

measurements, the higher pressure is connected to

the (+) side and the lower pressure to the (-) side of

the device.

4.2 Electrical connection

•By authorized and qualified specialized person-

nel only.

•The electrical connection of the device shall be

performed according to relevant VDE and local

electricity board regulations.

•Disconnect the system from the mains before

connecting the device.

•Add a fuse adapted to the energy requirements.

4.2.4 Bus structure

The device is connected in a line network structure

via plug 1 and plug 2 as a slave to the Modbus RTU

network. Star-shaped networks are not allowed.

Communication is effected via a Modbus master

that is also connected to the bus system. Here, the

individual slaves only react to direct commands

from the master, which is why communication be-

tween the slaves is not possible.

In this way up to 127 bus participants of the type

DE43 can be connected without an amplifier to a

Modbus RTU network.

4.2.5 Supply circuit

Please note that the M12 plugs (ST1, ST2) are

suitable for max. 2A. This value may be exceeded if

there are more than 23 bus participants so that in-

termediate feeding is required at this point.

The max. number of bus participants per supply cir-

cuit depends on the number of existing digital inputs.

The power draw of a DE43 is calculated as follows:

𝑖𝑛𝑝𝑢𝑡 𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡 = 0,055𝐴 + 𝑁𝑜.𝑜𝑓 𝐷𝑖𝑔𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑝𝑢𝑡𝑠 ∗ 0,0045𝐴

N : Input number

4.2.6 Terminating resistors

We recommend terminating both end points of the Modbus RTU network with 120Ω resistors, which are availa-

ble separately, to guarantee error-free data transmission.

5 Commissioning

User guide

5.1 Requirements

All electrical supply, operating and measuring lines,

and the pressure connections must have been cor-

rectly installed before commissioning. All supply

lines are arranged so that there are no mechanical

forces acting on the device.

Also, basic know-how of the Modbus protocol and

the interface specification are required to commis-

sion the bus system. Experience of handling Mod-

bus RTU networks would also be advantageous.

A functional Modbus master is essential.

5.2 Configuration Modbus

The switch S8 is used to select between the inter-

face configuration and address setting. The switch

can remain in the respective setting after the con-

figuration process.

On restarting, the current setting for the interface or

address is accepted.

5.2.1 Setting the Baud rate, parity and stopbit

Remove the screw cap on the front of the device.

You are now in a position to reach the DIP switches

required for configuration.

The following convention applies:

Switch setting OFF

Switch setting ON

Switch setting any

First ensure that the switch S8 is in the

switch setting "ON" because otherwise you

will need to set the Modbus address.

5 | 12 Page

Baud rate

Parity

Stopbit

Set the baud rate as follows using the switches

S1 ... S3:

Baud rate

1200

2400

4800

9600

19200

38400

57600

Then select the parity you require using the switch-

es S4 and S5:

Parity

none

same

not the

same

Last, select the required number of stopbits via the

switch S6:

Stopbits

1 stopbit

2 stopbits

The selection of 2 stopbits in combination

with even or uneven parity is not allowed.

Ensure that all bus participants have the same in-

terface configuration.

Then briefly disconnect the device from the power

supply so that the settings are accepted after a re-

start.

5.2.2 Setting the Modbus address

Remove the screw cap on the front of the device.

You are now in a position to reach the DIP switches

required for configuration.

First ensure that the switch S8 is in the

switch setting "OFF" because otherwise

you will need to set the Modbus interface.

Modbus address

You can set the Modbus address using the switch

settings.

The switches S1…S7 represent the respective set-

ting value in the dual system. The resulting value in

the decimal system is shown in the next line.

If, for example, you want to set the address 24, you

need to set the switches S4 and S5 whilst the other

switches are at "OFF".

BIT

Priority

Switch set-

ting

The address is calculated as follows:

0*20

0*21

0*22

1*23

1*24

0*25

0*26

In total this equals the address = 24

Then briefly disconnect the device from the power

supply so that the settings are accepted after a re-

start.
