Installation and Commissioning
Ensure that the device is suitable for the intended application with respect to pressure
range, overpressure limit, media compatibility, temperature range and process connection.
The submersible transmitter is not suitable for crystallising media.
3.1 Mechanical Installation
Only remove the protective cap or sheath from the diaphragm directly before installation so
as to avoid any contamination or damage. The diaphragm must have access to the pro-
cess media; you should therefore remove all covers from the transmitter.
Do not touch the flush mounted diaphragm with your fingers or other objects. Deformation
of the diaphragm can affect the zero point and the measuring properties of the unit.
Submersible transmitters are held by the connecting cable. Do not apply any force on the
screwed cable gland of the transmitter. Pay attention to avoid any tension when installing
in tanks or containers.
