Cerabar M PMC51, PMP51, PMP55
38 Endress+Hauser
Reading cycle
• Acyclic: typically 5/s
• Cyclic: max. 10/s (dependent on the number and type of function blocks used in a closed-control
loop)
Cycle time (update time)
Cyclic: min. 100 ms
Installation factors Influence of installation position

PMP51 with ½" thread and silicone oil Calibration position, no
measuring error
< +4 mbar (+0.06 psi) < –4 mbar (–0.06 psi)
PMP51 with thread > ½" and flanges < +10 mbar (+0.145 psi)
The value is doubled for
inert oil.
< –10 mbar (–0.145 psi)
The value is doubled for
inert oil.
A position-dependent zero point shift can be corrected on the device.
