2.2 Designated use
2.2.1 Application and media
The Deltabar FMD72 is a differential pressure transmitter for measuring differential
pressure and level in pressurized tanks. The device has two sensor modules, which
measure the operating pressure (High Pressure HP and Low Pressure LP). The differential
pressure/hydrostatic level is calculated in the transmitter unit. The sensor signal is
transmitted digitally. In addition, sensor temperatures and the individual process pressures
present at the respective sensor modules can be individually evaluated and transmitted. If
the limit values specified in the "Technical Data" and the conditions listed in the
instructions and additional documentation are observed, the measuring device may be
used for the following measurements (process variables):
Measured process variables
• Pressure HP and Pressure LP
• Sensor temperature HP and sensor temperature LP
• Transmitter temperature
Calculated process variables
• Differential pressure
• Level (level, volume or mass)
2.2.2 Incorrect use
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-designated use.
Verification for borderline cases:
