Design and operating principle Illustration of the principle

Pressures p1 and p2 act on the media chambers ⊕ and ⊖,

which are separated by an elastic diaphragm (1).

The differential pressure (Δp = p1 - p2) leads to an axial 5

deflection of the diaphragm against the measuring range

The deflection, which is proportional to the differential 4

pressure, is transmitted to the movement (5) in the indicating

Function Description
Data transfer measured values Radio standard GSM. Status messages are sent either in GPRS or in SMS mode. As standard,
measured values are transmitted in GPRS mode every hour, in SMS mode once or twice a day
(routine messages).
User-defined alarms Alarm message when a value exceeds or drops below a user-defined limit
Examples: “Level < 30 %” or “Working pressure too high!”
Consumption-related warning Warning message signalling an excessive consumption per a defined time interval.
messages Example: “Level drops by more than 10 % in comparison with the last status message”
Sampling rate / monitoring interval With voltage supply in network operation, all process parameters are monitored once per minute.
In battery operation they are monitored at intervals of 15 minutes.
Data loggers With the data logger activated, all measured values are saved at intervals of 15 minutes and are
then transmitted to the online data centre after a maximum of 12 hours.

Online data centre

The online data centre is available at https://www.global-datacenter.de any time.

After entering the personal access data, intelliMETRY® modules can be monitored and managed there. The online data centre
allows for the central configuration of all measuring points. In this way, subsequent setting changes can be carried out easily
and clearly.
Further details and user instructions are available at the online data centre.
