Pressure transmitter
SITRANS P210 (7MF1566)
Operating Instructions
7MF1566 with plug complying with
EN 175301-803-A
• Type 7MF1566-*****-1**1
• Type 7MF1566-*****-5**1
Range of application SITRANS P210, type 7MF1566
The pressure transmitter is used to measure relative pressure and
absolute pressure of gases and liquids in the following
industrial sectors:
• Mechanical engineering
• Power engineering
• Water supply
Device design without explosion protection
The pressure transmitter consists of a piezoresistive measuring cell with a
diaphragm, installed in a stainless steel housing. It can be electrically connected
using a plug complying with EN 175301-803-A (IP65), a round plug M12 (IP67),
a cable (IP67) or a fast-fit cable gland (IP67). The output signal is 4 to 20 mA or
0 to 10 V.
Device design with explosion protection
The pressure transmitter consists of a piezoresistive measuring cell with a dia-
phragm, installed in a stainless steel housing. It can be electrically connected with
a plug complying with EN 175301-803-A (IP65) or a round plug M12 (IP67). The
output signal is 4 to 20 mA.
Installation
CAUTION
Direct sunlight
Damage to the device
The effects of UV radiation can cause materials to become brittle.
• Protect the device from direct sunlight
• The location of the device has no influence on the precision of the
measurement.
• Before installation, compare the process data with the data of the name plate.
• The medium being measured must be suitable for the parts of the pressure
transmitter in contact with the medium.
• The overload limit must not be exceeded.
• Connect the devices to a fixed cable installation.
Grounding for
devices
The pressure transmitter must be connected to the equipotential bonding system
of the plant via the metal housing (process connection) and the ground conduc-
tor of the plug.

Read the information in the operating instructions
In terms of a safety-instrumented system, this device left the factory in perfect
condition. To maintain this status and to ensure safe operation of the device,
observe the following notes:
The device may only be used for the purposes specified in these instructions.
• When connecting up, installing and operating the device, the directives and
laws of your country apply.
• Devices with the type of protection "intrinsic safety" lose their approval, if they
are operated on electrical circuits that do not conform to the test certification
valid for your country.
• Connect the device to a low voltage power supply with safe separation (SELV).
• The device should only be supplied with limited energy according to UL 61010-1
Second Edition, Section 9.3 or LPS in conformance with UL 60950-1 or class 2 in
compliance with UL 1310 or UL 1585.
• The device can be operated both at high pressure and with aggressive and
hazardous media. This means that if the device is not used properly, serious
bodily injury and/or considerable damage to property cannot be excluded. This
should be kept in mind particularly when the device was in use and is replaced.
• The installation, mounting and commissioning of the
performed only by trained personnel and should comply with the standard
EN 60079-14.
• The overload limit should be monitored and kept to at all times.
• The device is maintenance-free.
