Intended Use
Page 5 FA 550 V1.00
4 Intended use
The FA 550 dew point sensor is intended for measuring the dew point or the pressure dew
point in clean, dry and oil-free gases and compressed air.
It is the responsibility oft he user whether the instrument is suitable for the selected
application. It must be ensured that the medium is compatible with the wetted parts. The
technical data listed in the data sheet are binding.
Improper handling or operation outside the technical specifications is not permitted. Claims of
any kind based on improper use are excluded.

Intended Use
Page 6 FA 550 V1.00
5 Device description
The FA 550 dew point sensor enables a reliable and long-term stable monitoring of the dew
point in industrial applications.
When mounting FA 550 into compressed air systems the pressure dew point (dew point
under pressure) up to 50 bar (in the special version up to 500 bar) is measured directly.
When mounting FA 550 in atmospheric conditions (ambient pressure) or in the flow off sector
(relaxed air) of compressed air systems the atmospheric dew point is measured.
Typical Application
compressed air plants (membrane- /adsorption dryers)
Residual moisture measurement / dew point measurement in gases such as:
Oxygen, nitrogen, argon, hydrogen, natural gas, biogas …
Advantages:
Extremely long-term stable
IP 67 housing grants a reliable protection in extreme industrial conditions
Very fast response time
Installable in the dryer by means of G 1/2" thread, optional UNF 5/8“
Analogoutput
o1x 4..20mA (glav. not isolated,
Modbus RTU Interaface
Optional
o2x 4..20mA galv. isolated
oEthernet or Ethernet PoE
oMBus
Calibration on location and testing with CS control and calibration set (PC connection
set)
CS Instruments Service Software
With the CS Service Software incl. USB / Modbus Adapter the Modbus settings, the scaling of the
Analogue output and the assignment of the measurement values could be set.
- Analogue output 4…20 mA scalable
- Switching between °Ctd,°Ftd, % RH, °C, °F, g/m³, mg/m³, g/kg, ppm, and so on
- Calibration and adjustment
- Sensor diagnosis
- Read-out of service data

Safety Instructions
Page 7 FA 550 V1.00
6 Safety Instructions
Read these operating instructions carefully before installing the FA 550.
Failure to observe the instructions contained herein, in particular the safety
instructions, may result in hazards to personnel, equipment and systems.
he product may only be used in accordance with its intended purpose.
Installation of the dew point sensor and maintenance work may only be carried
out by trained ersonnel.
Installation and service work must be carried out in a de-energized state.
The applicable safety regulations must be observed!
All work on the compressed air network must only be carried out in a
depressurised state.
Attention: Do not exceed the pressure range > 50 bar for the standard version.
Observe the measuring ranges of the sensor!
Overheating will destroy the sensors.
Observe the permissible storage and transport temperature as well as the
permissible operating temperature (e.g. protect the measuring instrument from
direct sunlight).
Opening the instrument, improper handling or use of force will void all warranty
claims!
Important: Before installation, briefly allow compressed air to flow off to remove
condensate and particles, this will prevent soiling of the FA 550.
Standing air leads to long measuring times.
