4.4 Operating principle
The pressure sensors of the PS310 series operate with ceramic measuring cells. The pressure ex-
erted on the ceramic carrier generates a signal proportional to the pressure, which is then elec-
tronically processed. Depending on the sensor version, the processed signal is converted either
into a switching or an analog output with an accuracy of 0.5% of full scale.
The pressure sensors of the PS510 series operate with fully welded metal measuring cells. The
pressure exerted on the metal carrier material generates a signal proportional to the pressure,
which is then electronically processed. Depending on the sensor version, the processed signal
is converted either into a switching or an analog output with an accuracy of 0.25% of full scale.
4.5 Functions and operating modes
The sensors of the PS series monitor media belonging to fluid group 2 and show the measured
values in a display.
The device parameters can be set via IO-Link and with the touchpads. A window function and a
hysteresis function can be set for the switching outputs. The measuring range of the analog
output can be defined as required. The measured pressure is displayed in bar, psi, kPa, MPa and
10 other units of pressure (Ud1...Ud10).
Type Output
PS…2UPN8… Two switching outputs (PNP/NPN)
PS…LI2UPN8… One switching output (PNP/NPN) as well as one switching output
(PNP/NPN) or one analog output (adjustable as current or voltage out-
put)
4.5.1 Setting options
The devices offer three setting options:
n Setting via IO-Link
n Setting via the touchpads
n Setting via FDT/DTM
4.5.2 Normal operation – Run mode
The sensor detects the system pressures and shows the measured process values according to
the preset switching and analog behavior. The display indicates the system pressure present,
the selected unit and the status of the switching outputs present.
4.5.3 Menu mode
Pressing the [MODE] touchpad switches the display to Menu mode. In this mode all parameters
and the associated values can be read. A short press of the [SET] touchpad displays the values
of a parameter.
4.5.4 Programming mode
Programming mode enables the setting of all adjustable parameter values. A short press of the
[SET] touchpad displays the values of a parameter.
