The materials used for the primary enclosure and pressure bearing surfaces are identified in the
product data sheet or, if applicable, the specification drawing. Make sure that the materials are
applicable for the installation.
Before using the sensor, remove the plastic/rubber protection cap from the pressure connector.
3.2 Safety Measures
The operation of sensors in systems where the pressure may exceed the overload values
specified in the data sheet or customer-specific specification drawing is not allowed.
Connection and detachment of sensors from the mains supplying the pressure of the medium to
be measured must be done after the shut-off valve is closed from the process and the pressure
in the working chamber is made equal to atmospheric.
The connecting pipes should have a one-way slope (not less than 1:10) from the pressure
collection point up to the sensor, if the medium to be measured is gas, and down to the sensor if
the medium is liquid. If this is not possible, when measuring gas pressure at the lower points of
the connecting lines, it is necessary to install sludge vessels, and when measuring the liquid
pressure at the highest points, install gas collectors.
Selected devices for mounting sensors should be mounted on straight sections, at the maximum
possible distance from pumps, locking devices, elbows, expansion joints and other hydraulic
devices. It is especially not recommended to install sensors in front of the shut-off device if the
medium to be measured is liquid. If water hammer exists in the system, it is recommended to
install a hydraulic shock dampener.
Attach the sensor in a safe configuration that prevents unwanted stress (vibration, physical
impact, shock, mechanical and thermal stresses). Do not install the sensor where it can be
damaged by a material that causes corrosion. Provide additional protection for the sensor if it may
be damaged in service.
When installing power supply and signal wiring, the possibility of condensate entering the sensor
cable entry should be avoided.
3.3 Earthing (Grounding)
Connect the earth (ground) connections applicable to the installation.
3.4 Maintenance
The sensor contains no moving parts and requires a minimum of maintenance.
Do not try to do repairs to this sensor. Return the sensor to the manufacturer or an approved
service agent.
3.4.1 Visual Inspection
Inspect the sensor for damage and corrosion. Any damage to the sensor must be assessed. If
the housing is no longer sealed against water and/or dust, the sensor must be replaced.
3.4.2 Cleaning
Clean the case with a damp lint-free cloth and mild detergent.
If the product has been in contact with hazardous or toxic materials, obey all the applicable
Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) or Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)
references and precautions when handling.
3.4.3 Metrological Characteristics
The metrological characteristics of the sensor correspond to the declared values during the inter-
testing interval as long as the consumer observes the storage, transportation and operation rules
specified in this manual.
