4.1 General instructions
VEGADIS 82 functions in any installation position.
Protect your instrument against moisture ingress through the following
measures:
•
Use the recommended cable (see chapter "
Connecting to power
supply
")
•
Tighten the cable gland
•
When mounting horizontally, turn the housing so that the cable
gland points downward
•
Loop the connection cable downward in front of the cable gland
This applies mainly to outdoor installations, in areas where high
humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) and on cooled
or heated vessels.
To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is
closed during operation and locked, if necessary.
Make sure that the degree of contamination specified in chapter
"
Technical data
" meets the existing ambient conditions.
