4.5.1 Installation instructions for devices without diaphragm seals –

PMP51, PMC51
NOTICE
Damage to the device!
If a heated Cerabar M is cooled during the cleaning process (e.g. by cold water), a vacuum
develops for a short time, whereby moisture can penetrate the sensor through the pressure
compensation (1).
‣ If this is the case, mount the Cerabar M with the pressure compensation (1) pointing
downwards.
1

• Keep the pressure compensation and GORE-TEX® filter (1) free from contamination.
• Cerabar M transmitters without diaphragm seals are mounted as per the norms for a
manometer (DIN EN 837-2). We recommend the use of shutoff devices and siphons. The
orientation depends on the measuring application.
• Do not clean or touch process isolating diaphragms with hard or pointed objects.
• The device must be installed as follows in order to comply with the cleanability
requirements of the ASME-BPE (Part SD Cleanability):

4.5.2 Installation instructions for devices with diaphragm seals –

PMP55
• Cerabar M devices with diaphragm seals are screwed in, flanged or clamped, depending on
the type of diaphragm seal.
• Please note that the hydrostatic pressure of the liquid columns in the capillaries can cause
zero point shift. The zero point shift can be corrected.
• Do not clean or touch the process isolating diaphragm of the diaphragm seal with hard or
pointed objects.
• Do not remove process isolating diaphragm protection until shortly before installation.
NOTICE
Improper handling!
Damage to the device!
‣ A diaphragm seal and the pressure transmitter together form a closed, oil-filled
calibrated system. The fill fluid hole is sealed and may not be opened.
‣ When using a mounting bracket, sufficient strain relief must be ensured for the
capillaries in order to prevent the capillary bending down (bending radius 100
(3.94 in)).
‣ Please observe the application limits of the diaphragm seal filling oil as detailed in the
Technical Information for Cerabar M TI00436P, "Planning instructions for diaphragm
seal systems" section.
NOTICE
In order to obtain more precise measurement results and to avoid a defect in the device,
mount the capillaries as follows:
‣ Vibration-free (in order to avoid additional pressure fluctuations)
‣ Not in the vicinity of heating or cooling lines
‣ Insulate if the ambient temperature is below or above the reference temperature
‣ With a bending radius of  100 mm (3.94 in).
‣ Do not use the capillaries as a carrying aid for the diaphragm seals!

Endress+Hauser 17
Installation Cerabar M Analog

Vacuum application
For applications under vacuum, Endress+Hauser recommends mounting the pressure
transmitter below the diaphragm seal. This prevents vacuum loading of the diaphragm seal
caused by the presence of fill fluid in the capillary.
When the pressure transmitter is mounted above the diaphragm seal, the maximum height
difference H1 in accordance with the illustrations below must not be exceeded.

H1

A0023994

Fig. 9: Installation above the lower diaphragm seal

The maximum height difference depends on the density of the filling oil and the smallest

Mounting with temperature isolator

Endress+Hauser recommends the use of temperature isolators in the event of constant
extreme medium temperatures which lead to the maximum permissible electronics
temperature of +85 °C (+185°F) being exceeded.
Depending on the filling oil used, diaphragm seal systems with temperature isolators can be
used for maximum temperatures of up to 400 °C (+752 °F). For the temperature
application limits, see technical Information, "Diaphragm seal filling oils" section.
To minimize the influence of rising heat, Endress+Hauser recommends the device be
mounted horizontally or with the housing pointing downwards. The additional installation
height also brings about a maximum zero point shift of 21 mbar (0.315 psi) due to the
hydrostatic column in the temperature isolator. You can correct this zero point shift at the
device.
The temperature restrictions are lowest with an insulation height of 30 mm (1.18 inch).
Full insulation exhibits virtually the same behavior as no insulation!
The temperature limits with an insulation height of 30 mm (1.18 inch) are illustrated in the

Information on filling
The diaphragm seal must be filled as soon as it has been welded on.
• After welded into the process connection, the sensor assembly must be properly filled with
a filling oil and sealed gas-tight with a sealing ball and lock screw.
Once the diaphragm seal has been filled, at the zero point the device display should not
exceed 10% of the full scale value of the cell measuring range. The internal pressure of the
diaphragm seal must be corrected accordingly.
• Adjustment / calibration:
– The device is operational once it has been fully assembled.
– Perform a reset. The device must then be calibrated to the process measuring range as
described in the Operating Instructions.

A0028502

8.1 Cleaning instructions

Endress+Hauser offer flushing rings as accessories to clean process isolating diaphragms
without taking the transmitters out of the process.
For further information please contact your local Endress+Hauser Sales Center.

8.1.1 Cerabar M PMP55

We recommend you perform CIP (cleaning in place (hot water)) before SIP (sterilization in
place (steam)) for pipe diaphragm seals. A frequent use of sterilization in place (SIP) will
increase the stress on the process isolating diaphragm. Under unfavorable circumstances in
the long term view we cannot exclude that a frequent temperature change could lead to a
material fatigue of the process isolating diaphragm and possibly to a leakage.

8.2 Exterior cleaning

Please note the following points when cleaning the device:
• The cleaning agents used should not corrode the surface and the seals.
• Mechanical damage to the diaphragm, e.g. due to sharp objects, must be avoided.
• Observe the degree of protection of the device. See the nameplate if necessary ( ä 8 ff).
