Handling Requirements and Cautions: 

1.  All electrical & pressure connections should be compatible with the model specifications as outlined above. 
2.  The product's internal electrical circuitry is DC isolated from case ground. It is recommended that the case ground wire 

be connected to earth ground at the cable termination as this is an integral part of the internal surge protection and 
noise immunity features. 

3.  On some lower range models a breather opening, with breather filter, is used to allow for proper product function.  At 

no time should the filter be removed in service. If any mist, vapor or fluid is permitted to enter this breather without the 
filter, total unit failure will occur. 

4.  At no time should an object be inserted into the pressure port or pressed against the sensing area to deflect the sensor 

(to test or simulate pressure), as on some models permanent damage to the sensing diaphragm may occur. 

5.  When shipped in quantities, units should be packaged individually to eliminate possible damage.
