Warning.

„

Potting materials are toxic – use suitable safety precautions.

„

Read the manufacturers instructions carefully before preparing the potting material.

„

The remote sensor terminal box connections must be potted immediately on completion to 
prevent the ingress of moisture.

„

Check all connections before potting – see section 3, page 17.

„

Do not overfill or allow the potting material to come into contact with 'O' rings or grooves.

„

Do not let potting material enter conduit, if used.
