NPT thread
In the case of instrument housings with self-sealing NPT threads, it is
not possible to have the cable entries screwed in at the factory. The
free openings for the cable glands are therefore covered with red dust
protection caps as transport protection.
Prior to setup you have to replace these protective caps with ap-
proved cable glands or close the openings with suitable blind plugs.
4.2 Mounting instructions
If the instrument is mounted in the filling stream, unwanted false
measurement signals can be generated. For this reason, mount the
instrument at a position in the vessel where no disturbances, e.g. from
filling openings, agitators, etc., can occur.
This applies particularly to instrument versions with a longer probe.

Make sure that the max. permissible tensile load of the suspension
cable is not exceeded. The danger of this happening exists particu-
larly with very heavy solids and large meas. lengths. The max. permis-
sible load is stated in chapter " Technical data ".
