.
3. With pressure transmitters below the differential pressure transducer, partially open both
drain valves
⑦
one after the other until liquid emerges without bubbles.
In the case of a pressure transmitter above the differential pressure transducer, partially
open both vent valves
⑩
one after the other until liquid emerges without bubbles.
4. Close both drain valves
⑦
or vent valves
⑩
.
5. Partially open the differential pressure valve
③
and the vent valve (sealing plug with vent
valve) on the positive side of the pressure transmitter until liquid escapes without bubbles.
6. Close the vent valve (sealing plug with vent valve).
7. Partially open the vent valve (sealing plug with vent valve) on the negative side of the
pressure transmitter until liquid escapes without bubbles.
8. Close the differential pressure valve
