.1 General instructions

M

ake 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.

Y

ou can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" or on the

type label.

S

elect 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°).

B

efore beginning the welding work, remove the electronics module

from the sensor. By doing this, you avoid damage to the electronics
through inductive coupling.

W

ith threaded versions, the housing must not be used to screw in the

instrument! Applying tightening forces on the housing can damage its
internal parts.

U

se the hexagon for screwing in.

U

se the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to power

supply") and tighten the cable gland.

Y

ou 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.
