Explanation
MWP
The MWP (maximum working pressure) for the individual

sensors depends on the lowest-rated element, with regard to
pressure, of the selected components, i.e. the process
connection has to be taken into consideration in addition to
the measuring cell. Pay attention to the pressure-temperature
dependence also. For the relevant standards and additional
notes, see section " 33".
OPL
The OPL (over pressure limit = sensor overload limit) for the
sensor depends on the lowest-rated element, with regard to
pressure, of the selected components, i.e. the process
connection has to be taken into consideration in addition to
the measuring cell. Pay attention to the pressure-temperature
dependence also. For the relevant standards and additional
notes, see section " 33".

Total pressure = hydrostatic pressure + atmospheric pressure
Atmospheric pressure
Hydrostatic pressure
Measured pressure in the measuring cell = hydrostatic pressure
Density of the medium
Due to its weight, a liquid column creates hydrostatic pressure. If the density is constant, the
hydrostatic pressure depends solely on the height h of the liquid column.
The CONTITE measuring cell, which works on the principle of the gauge pressure sensor, constitutes
the core of Deltapilot M. In contrast to conventional gauge pressure sensors, the precision measuring
element (2) in the CONTITE measuring cell is absolutely protected, situated between the process
isolating diaphragm (3) and the rear isolating membrane (1). Thanks to this hermetic sealing of the
measuring element, the CONTITE measuring cell is absolutely insensitive to condensate/
condensation and aggressive gases. The pressure applied is transferred from the process isolating
diaphragm to the measuring element by means of an oil without any loss in pressure.
Any measured errors due to fluctuations in temperature are compensated for in the electronics unit by
means of the sensor temperature.
A linearization function with max. 32 points, based on a table entered either manually or
semi-automatically, can be activated locally or remotely. This function facilitates measurement in
engineering units, and provides a linear output signal for spherical and horizontal cylindrical vessels,
and vessels with a conical outlet.

Level measurement in closed

tanks with pressure overlay
You can determine the differential pressure in tanks with pressure overlay using two Deltapilot M. The
pressure measured values of the two probes are sent to a signal processing unit such as
Endress+Hauser RMA or a PLC. The signal processing unit or PLC determines the difference in pressure
and uses this to calculate the level and the density where necessary.

Deltapilot 1 measures the total pressure (hydrostatic pressure and top pressure)
Deltapilot 2 measures the top pressure
Signal processing unit determines the difference in pressure and uses this to calculate the level
NOTICE
Measured errors can occur.
Large measured errors can occur if the ratio of the level to the top pressure is >1:6. This does not affect
reproducibility.
When selecting the measuring cell, make sure you select measuring ranges that are sufficiently
wide ( see example).
Example:
Max. hydrostatic pressure = 600 mbar (9 psi)
Max. top pressure (Deltapilot 2) = 300 mbar (4.5 psi)
Max. total pressure, measured with Deltapilot 1 = 300 mbar (4.5 psi) + 600 mbar (9 psi) = 900 mbar
(13.5 psi) measuring cell to be selected: 0 to 1200 mbar (0 to 18 psi)
Max. pressure, measured with Deltapilot 2: 300 mbar (4.5 psi) measuring cell to be selected:
0 to 400 mbar (6 psi)
NOTICE
Possibility of probe 2 flooding during differential pressure measurement.
Measured errors can occur.
When installing, make sure that probe 2 cannot be flooded.

Density measurement
You can measure the density in tanks with pressure overlay using two Deltapilot M and a signal
processing unit or a PLC. The signal processing unit or the PLC calculates the density from the known
distance between the two Deltapilot M devices h and the two measured values p1 and p2.

automatic density correction
(with media changing in the

Deltapilot 1 determines pressure measured value p1

Deltapilot 2 determines pressure measured value p2
Signal processing unit determines the density from the two measured values p1 and p2 and the distance h
Level measurement with automatic density correction is possible in conjunction with a limit switch
such as Liquiphant and a PLC. The limit switch always switches at the same level. In the switch point,
the signal processing unit determines the corrected density from the pressure of the Deltapilot M
currently measured and the known distance between Deltapilot M and the limit switch. The signal
processing unit then calculates the level from the new density and the measured pressure of the
Deltapilot M.

FMB50
Level measurement
Always install the device below the lowest measuring point.
Do not install the device at the following positions:
in the filling curtain
in the tank outflow
or at a point in the tank that can be affected by pressure pulses from the agitator
The calibration and functional test can be carried out more easily if you mount the device
downstream of a shutoff device.
Deltapilot M must be included in the insulation for media that can harden when cold.
Pressure measurement in gases
Mount Deltapilot M with shutoff device above the tapping point so that any condensate can flow into
the process.
Pressure measurement in steams
Mount Deltapilot M with siphon above the tapping point.
Fill the siphon with liquid before commissioning.
The siphon reduces the temperature to almost the ambient temperature.
Pressure measurement in liquids
Mount Deltapilot M with the shutoff device below or at the same level as the tapping point.
28
When mounting rod and cable versions, make sure that the probe head is located at a point as free
as possible from flow. To protect the probe from impact resulting from lateral movement, mount the
probe in a guide tube (preferably made of plastic) or secure it with a clamping fixture.
In the case of devices for hazardous areas, comply strictly with the safety instructions when the
housing cover is open.
The length of the extension cable or the probe rod is based on the planned level zero point.
The height of the protective cap must be taken into consideration when designing the layout of the
measuring point. The level zero point (E) corresponds to the position of the process isolating
diaphragm.
Level zero point = E; top of the probe = L.

Do not clean or touch process isolating diaphragms with hard or pointed objects.
The process isolating diaphragm in the rod and cable version is protected against mechanical
damage by a plastic cap.
Seal
Deltapilot M devices with a G 1 thread:
When screwing the device into the tank, the flat seal has to be positioned on the sealing surface of
the process connection. To avoid additional strain on the process isolating diaphragm, the thread
should never be sealed with hemp or similar materials.
Deltapilot M devices with NPT threads:
Wrap Teflon tape around the thread to seal it.
Tighten the device at the hexagonal bolt only. Do not turn the device at the housing.
Do not overtighten the thread when screwing in the screw. Max. torque: 20 to 30 Nm
(14.75 to 22.13 lbf ft)
Sealing the probe housing
Moisture must not penetrate the housing when mounting the device, establishing the electrical
connection and during operation.
Always firmly tighten the housing cover and the cable entries.
Lubricant is provided on the O-ring seal in the housing cover and on the thread of the aluminum
cover. To ensure that the cover seals tight, any lubricant which has been removed must be replaced.
Use silicone grease or graphite paste as the lubricant. Mineral oil-based grease can destroy the
O-ring.

Oxygen applications
Oxygen and other gases can react explosively to oils, grease and plastics. As a result, the following are
some of the precautions that must be taken:
All components of the system, such as measuring devices, must be cleaned in accordance with the
BAM (DIN 19247) requirements.
Depending on the materials used, a certain maximum temperature and maximum pressure must not
be exceeded for oxygen applications. The maximum temperature Tmax for oxygen applications is
60 C (140F).
The devices suitable for gaseous oxygen applications are listed in the following table with the
specification pmax.

! WARNING
The maximum pressure for the measuring device depends on the lowest-rated element with
regard to pressure 13 ff, "Measuring range" ordering feature and 34 ff "Mechanical
construction" ordering feature
Only operate the measuring device within the prescribed limits!
The MWP (maximum working pressure) is specified on the nameplate. This value refers to a
reference temperature of +20 C (68F), (100F (38 C) for ANSI flanges), and may be applied to the
device for an unlimited time. Pay attention to pressure-temperature dependencies.
Please refer to the following standards for pressure values permitted at higher temperatures
EN 1092-1: 2001 Tab. 18 1)
ASME B 16.5a 1998 Tab. 2-2.2 F316
ASME B 16.5a 1998 Tab. 2.3.8 N10276
JIS B 2220.
The MWP applies for the temperature ranges indicated in the "Ambient temperature limits"
( 32) and "Process temperature limits" ordering features (see above).
The test pressure corresponds to the over pressure limit of the device (OPL = 1.5 x MWP) and may
be applied for only a limited time period in order to avoid permanent damage.
The Pressure Equipment Directive (EC Directive 97/23/EC) uses the abbreviation "PS". The
abbreviation "PS" corresponds to the MWP (maximum working pressure) of the measuring device.
In the case of sensor range and process connection combinations where the OPL (over pressure
limit) of the process connection is smaller than the nominal value of the sensor, the device is set at
the factory, at the very maximum, to the OPL value of the process connection. If you want to use
the entire sensor range, select a process connection with a higher OPL value (1.5 x PN; PN = MWP).
In oxygen applications, the values for "pmax and Tmax for oxygen applications" as per 31,
"Oxygen applications" ordering feature may not be exceeded.
With regard to their stability-temperature property, the materials 1.4435 and 1.4404 are grouped together under 13EO in EN 1092-1 Tab. 18. The
chemical composition of the two materials can be identical.
