Connect the sensor cable to the controller.
Operation
When the voltage is supplied, the measuring signal is avail-
able between pins 2 (+) and 12 (–) (Relationship Measuring
Signal – Pressure
→ "Technical Data" and [1]).
BPG400-SD and -SP can also be operated via the corre-
sponding fieldbus interface (DeviceNet or Profibus
→ [1]
and [2] for further details and functions).
Allow for a stabilizing time of
≈10 minutes. Once the gauge
has been switched on, permanently leave it on irrespective of
the pressure.
Gas Type Dependence
(BPG400)
The measurement value is gas dependent. The displayed
reading applies to dry air, O
2
, CO, and N
2
. For other gases, it
has to be converted (
→ "Technical Data" and [1]).
Adjusting the Gauge
The adjustment of BPG400-SD and -SP (
→ [1]
and [2]) is slightly different from the procedure for
BPG400, which is described below.
The gauge is factory calibrated. If used under different
climatic conditions, at extreme temperatures, through aging
or contamination and after exchanging the sensor, the char-
acteristic curve can be offset and readjustment can become
necessary. Only the Pirani element can be adjusted and only
at atmosphere.
Readjustment becomes necessary if
• at atmosphere the output voltage is <10 V or the display
reading is • when venting the vacuum system, the output voltage reaches 10 V before the measured pressure has reached Activate the gauge. Operate the gauge for ≈10 minutes at atmos- pheric pressure.

Contaminated parts can be detrimental to health
and environment.
Before beginning to work, find out whether any
parts are contaminated. Adhere to the relevant
regulations and take the necessary precautions
when handling contaminated parts.
Dirt and damages impair the function of the vac-

When handling vacuum components, take ap-
propriate measures to ensure cleanliness and
prevent damages.
Touching the product or parts thereof with bare
hands increases the desorption rate.
Always wear clean, lint-free gloves and use
