4.2. Mounting of the device
.
The transmitter is delivered with a probe-connection in accordance with the customer order. It
can be screwed into the threaded connection socket made for this purpose in the system. An
open-end wrench (size 32) must be used for to tightening. Tightening with pipe wrench or with
any other tools may cause damages to the device.
Especially for high-temperature technology it is recommended to mount the transmitter either to
the side or to the bottom of the container tank. This way the inner heat isolation of the device
can exert its impact better. transmitters installed on the top of tanks are exposed to the effects
of high temperature communicated by the tank; this may cause overheating and failures. For
selecting the mounting place, care must also be paid to prevent the electrical connection from
getting any humidity in, as the system might get damaged when the it is not tight as a result of
improper assembling. The penetration of vapours saturated with chemical agents, through the
opening P
0
(Figure 5.) may cause damages to the transmitter. (in the case of absolute pressure-
measurement, there is no P
0
opening).
