Aligning the housing
To align the cable entry, the housing can be rotated by 270°.
For additional protection against ingress of moisture, particularly for outdoor installation, we
recommend routing the connecting cable downwards in front of the cable gland and securing it with
a cable tie.
Housing (Type F16, F15, F17, F13, T13)
• Screw open the cover.
• Unscrew the Phillips-head screw at the bottom of the housing by 3 to 4 complete turns.
• Rotate the housing into the desired position (max. 270°, from one limit stop to the other)
• Tighten the Phillips-head screw at the bottom of the housing.
!
Note!
For the Type T13 housing with separate connection compartment, the Phillips-head screw for
aligning the housing is also in the electronics compartment.

1. Release the securing screw in the housing until the housing rotates easily.
2. Align the housing as required.
3. Tighten the securing screw (< 1 Nm) until the housing can no longer be turned.
4. Also protect the electronics compartment against moisture.
3.3.3
Sealing the probe housing
It is important that when installing the probe, connecting the electronic insert and during
subsequent operation, no moisture enters the probe housing. Therefore, always close the housing
cover and the cable entries tightly.
The O-ring seal on the housing cover is shipped with a coat of lubricant applied.
This allows the cover to seal tightly and ensures that the aluminum thread does not become jammed
during closing.
Never use mineral oil-based grease! This would destroy the O-ring.
