.1 General instructions

Make sure that all parts of the instrument exposed to the process, in
particular the sensor element, process seal and process fitting, are
suitable for the existing process conditions. These include above all
the process pressure, process temperature as well as the chemical
properties of the medium.

You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" or on the
type label.

Caution:
After removal of the diaphragm protective cover, the diaphragm must
not be pressed.

Select an installation position you can easily reach for mounting and
connecting as well as later retrofitting of an indicating and adjustment
module. The housing can be rotated by 330° without the use of any
tools. You can also install the indicating and adjustment module in four
different positions (each displaced by 90°).

Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to power
supply
") and tighten the cable gland.

You can give your instrument additional protection against moisture
penetration by leading the connection cable downward in front of the
cable entry. Rain and condensation water can thus drain off. This
applies mainly to outdoor mounting as well as installation in areas
where high humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) or
on cooled or heated vessels.
