Manual for 266HSH
Uploaded: April 20, 2026, 7:47 p.m.
Warranty Information
Prior to installation, store in a clean, dry environment as per specification. Warranty requires specific documentation in case of failure.
The operation section details how to configure and use the 266HSH pressure transmitter. Key aspects include setting the lower and upper range values (LRV/URV) using LCD keys or a handheld terminal, configuring the output function (Linear, Customization, Tank types), and adjusting damping settings to smooth noisy signals. It also covers hardware settings via dip switches for mode selection, fail-safe configuration, and write protection. The HMI menu structure and navigation for easy setup are explained, along with feedback messages for button operations. Specific procedures for activating the integrated LCD and managing parameters are provided. Configuration can also be done via PC or HHT (Hand Held Terminal).

| Process related error messages. | ||||
| F104.032 | Pressure Overrange | This effect could be produced by other equipment on the process, (valves.....). Exceeding the pressure range can cause reduced accuracy or mechanical damage to the diaphragm material and may require calibration/replacement. | The compatibility of pressure transmitter model and process conditions has to be checked. A different transmitter type could be required | no effect |
| F102.004 | P-dP Out Of Limits | The measurement range has not been correctly calculated OR an incorrect transducer model has been selected. | The compatibility of pressure transmitter model and process conditions has to be checked. Probably a different transmitter type is required. | no effect |
| F100.005 | Static Pressure Out of Limits | The static pressure of the process exceeds the limit of the sensor. Exceeding the Static Pressure can reduce accuracy, mechanically damage the diaphragm and may require calibration/replacement. An incorrect transducer model could have been selected. | The compatibility of pressure transmitter model and process conditions has to be checked. Probably a different transmitter type is required. | no effect |
| S054.006 | Sensor Temperature Out of Limits | The temperature of the process environment affects the pressure transmitter; Excess temperature can reduce accuracy, degrade device components and may require calibration/replacement. | The compatibility of pressure transmitter model and process conditions has to be checked. A different installation type could be required e.g. use of remote seals. | no effect |
| S052.031 | Max Working Pressure Exceeded | The static pressure of the process exceeds the max working Pressure supported by the transmitter. Exceeding the Max Working Pressure can mechanically damage the process connections (flanges, pipes....) and/or be dangerous | The compatibility of pressure transmitter model and process conditions has to be checked. | no effect |
| F098.034 | Analog Output Saturated | The analog output for the Primary Variable is beyond its Low scaling limit and no longer represents the true applied process. The Analog Output (1-5V) is saturated to the configured Saturation Limit Low. | Adjust the Saturation Limit or the working range if possible. | no effect |
| F098.034 | Analog Output Saturated | The analog output for the Primary Variable is beyond its High scaling limit and no longer represents the true applied process. The Analog Output (1-5V) is saturated to the configured Saturation Limit High. | Adjust the Saturation Limit or the working range if possible. | no effect |
