5 Transport, packaging and storage
5.1
Transport
Check the CPG500 digital pressure gauge for any damage that may have been caused by
transport. Obvious damage must be reported immediately.
5.2
Packaging
Do not remove packaging until just before mounting.
Keep the packaging as it will provide optimum protection during transport (e.g. change in
installation site, sending for repair).
5.3
Storage
Permissible conditions at the place of storage:
■
Storage temperature: -20…+60 °C
■
Humidity: <85 % relative humidity (non-condensing)
Avoid exposure to the following factors:
■
Direct sunlight or proximity to hot objects
■
Mechanical vibration, mechanical shock (putting it down hard)
■
Soot, vapour, dust and corrosive gases
■
Potentially explosive environments, flammable atmospheres
Store the CPG500 digital pressure gauge in its original packaging in a location that fulfills the
conditions listed above. If the original packaging is not available, pack and store the CPG500
digital pressure gauge as described below:
1. Wrap the CPG500 digital pressure gauge in an antistatic plastic film.
2. Place the CPG500 digital pressure gauge, along with shock-absorbent material, in the
packaging.
3. If stored for a prolonged period of time (more than 30 days), place a bag, containing a
desiccant, inside the packaging.
WARNING!
Before storing the digital pressure gauge (following operation),
remove any residual media. This is of particular importance if the medium
is hazardous to health, e.g. caustic, toxic, carcinogenic, radioactive, etc.
