4 Mounting

4.1 Application conditions

Before mounting, setup and operation, take note that the pressure

transmitter as well as the chemical seal were selected according to

measuring range, version and material suitable for the process condi-

tions. The load limits must be maintained in order to guarantee the

specified accuracy.
Caution:

In dangerous substances such as e.g. oxygen, acetylene, combusti-

ble or toxic products as well as in refrigerating plants, compressors,

etc., the pertinent instructions must be observed in addition to the

general regulations.

Take note of the following issues in respect to the process and ambi-

ent temperature:

Mount the differential pressure transmitter in such a way that the

permissible process and ambient temperature limits are neither

underrun nor exceeded.

Take the influence of convection and heat radiation into account

When selecting the chemical seals, make sure that the fittings and

flanges are pressure and temperature resistant

For this purpose select the suitable material and pressure stage

Mount in such a way that plus and minus side have the same

ambient temperatures to keep the temperature influences low

4.2 Instructions for handling

Instruments must be protected against soiling and strong fluctua-

tions of the ambient temperature

Leave the measuring system in the packaging until mounting to

protect it against mechanical damages

When removing the packaging and when mounting, take special

care to avoid mechanical damage and deformation of the dia-

phragm

Do not carry the pressure transmitter by holding the capillary line

Do not bent the capillary lines. Kinks can cause leakage and lead

to an increase in response time

Never loosen sealed screws on the chemical seal or the pressure

transmitter

Do not damage the isolating diaphragm: scratches on the isolating

diaphragm (e.g. from sharp subjects) are the main areas where

corrosion can occur

4.3 Mounting instructions

Suitable seals must be selected for sealing

For flange mounting, use a seal with a sufficiently large inner diam-

eter and place the seal centrically; contact with the diaphragm will

cause measurement deviations
