Installation

Vacuum Connection

DANGER

DANGER: overpressure in the vacuum system
>1 bar

Injury caused by released parts and harm
caused by escaping process gases can result if
clamps are opened while the vacuum system is
pressurized.

Do not open any clamps while the vacuum sys-
tem is pressurized. Use the type clamps which
are suited to overpressure.

DANGER

DANGER: protective ground

Incorrectly grounded products can be extremely
hazardous in the event of a fault.

The gauge must be electrically connected to the
grounded vacuum chamber. This connection
must conform to the requirements of a protective
connection according to EN 61010:
• CF connection fulfill this requirement
• For gauges with a KF flange, use a conduc-

tive metallic clamping ring

Caution

Caution: vacuum component

Dirt and damages impair the function of the
vacuum component.

When handling vacuum components, take ap-
propriate measures to ensure cleanliness and
prevent damages.

Caution

Caution: dirt sensitive area

Touching the product or parts thereof with bare
hands increases the desorption rate.

Always wear clean, lint-free gloves and use
clean tools when working in this area.

The gauge may be mounted in any orientation. To

keep condensates and particles from getting into the
measuring chamber, preferably choose a horizontal
to upright position.

The gauge is supplied with a built-in grid. For poten-
tially contaminating applications and to protect the
electrodes against light and fast particles, installation
of the optional baffle is recommended (

→ [1]).

Vacuum connection free of grease.

Remove the protective lid and install the gauge to the
vacuum system. Keep the protective lid.

Electrical Connection

(BPG402-S/-SL only)

Make sure the vacuum connection is properly made

(

→ "Vacuum Connection").

If no connection cable is available, make one according

to the following diagram.
