4.1 General instructions to use the instrument

Make sure that all parts of the instrument coming in direct contact

with the process, especially the sensor element, process seal and

process fitting, are suitable for the existing process conditions, such

as process pressure, process temperature as well as the chemical

properties of the medium.
You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" and on the

nameplate.

Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to power

supply") and tighten the cable gland.
You can give the 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 ap-

plies 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.

The ventilation for the electronics housing is realised via a filter ele-

ment in the vicinity of the cable glands.

Information:

Make sure that the filter element is always free of buildup during

operation. A high-pressure cleaner may not be used for cleaning.

DP flow elements are calculated for certain pipeline and operating

data. Therefore, check the pipeline data before installation at the

measuring point and compare the measurement loop number.
