WIKA Safety manual pressure transmitter, model S-20

14082128.02 06/2014 GB/D/F/E

2.5 Description of the safety function and diagnosis

The safety function of the model S-20 is that the pressure transmitter converts the physical input parameter of pressure

into an electrical signal.

The model S-20 recognises the following error states

Table 2-2: Error detection

All failures detected are indicated as downscale alarm signals (low alarm values).

Undetected errors can generate an undefined output signal within or outside of the span range.

The alarm signal for over- or underpressure is triggered when the error condition exists uninterrupted for a minimum

of 10 seconds.

Errors which are checked cyclically are not permanently active, i.e. a reentry into measuring mode after exiting the

error range is possible during running.

Missing short-circuit resistance between signals in accordance with table 2-1: Parameters can lead to the destruc-

tion of the pressure measuring instrument. Short circuit leads to the loss of the safety function.

The external supervisory logic unit must bring the plant to a safe state if the alarm condition is entered.
