You can use the device in any mounting position. Normally the transmitter is adjusted for a
vertical mounting position. A different mounting position in combination with a small nomi-
nal range might cause a zero point offset. In this case a zero point adjustment might be
necessary.
3.2 Electrical Connection
Complete the mechanical installation before you connect the device electrically.
Set up all electrical connections while the voltage supply is switched off.

Cable gland
Figure 1: Options for the electrical connection
Pay attention to the following points regarding electrical connections via cable gland and
terminal block:
Do not forget to tighten the cable gland after the electrical connection is finalised.
Press down the spring of spring-operated terminals as far as possible, e.g. with a
screwdriver, before you insert the cable. Otherwise a safe electrical connection
cannot be ensured.
3.3 Devices with Diaphragm Seal
Remove the protective cap or protective wrapping from the diaphragm only just before in-
stallation to prevent contamination or damage.
The diaphragm must not be touched. Do not place the device on its diaphragm. Even
small scratches or deformations may negatively influence the zero point or other charac-
teristics of the device.
Pressure transmitter and diaphragm seal are a closed system that must not be separated.
You can find further information about diaphragm seals in the document TA_031 on
www.labom.com.
