Mounting with
temperature spacers
The use of temperature spacers is recommended for constant extreme product
temperatures that can cause the maximum permissible ambient temperature of +85 °C
(+185 °F) to be exceeded.
•
Note when mounting that the temperature spacer increases the maximum
height by 100 mm (3.94 in).
•
Due to the water column in the temperature spacer, the increased height
also causes a zero point shift of approx. 10 mbar (0.15 psi).

Mounting with
capillary tubing
To protect from high temperature, moisture or vibration, or where the mounting point is
not easily accessible, the housing of the Barcon can be mounted with a capillary tube to
one side of the measuring point.
A bracket for mounting on a wall or pipe is available for this.

apply to instruments with a raised cover.
