General Information
This document contains necessary information for the proper installation and use of this
device. In addition to this instruction, be sure to observe all statutory requirements, appli-
cable standards, the additional technical specifications on the accompanying data sheet
(see www.labom.com) as well as the specifications indicated on the type plate.
1.1 General Safety Notes
The installation, set up, service or disassembly of this device must only be done by
trained, qualified personnel using suitable equipment and authorized to do so.
Warning
Media can escape if unsuitable devices are used or if the installation is not
correct.
Danger of severe injury or damage
Ensure that the device is suitable for the process and undamaged.
1.2 Intended Use
The device is intended to measure pressure of gases, vapors and liquids as specified in
the data sheet.

Transportation and Storage
Store and transport the device only under clean and dry conditions preferably in the origi-
nal packaging. Avoid exposure to shocks and excessive vibrations.
Permissible storage temperature:
0…70 °C

Installation and Commissioning
Ensure that the device is suitable for the intended application with respect to pressure
range, overpressure limit, media compatibility, temperature range and process connection.
3.1 Mechanical Installation
Use gaskets, if required, that are suitable for the process connection and resistant to the
media.
Before starting operation, check the process connection carefully for leaks under pressure.
Use new gaskets for each installation. We recommend the use of aluminium gaskets
(A 27 x 32 as per DIN 7603), which you can order directly from us as an accessory.
Fit the pressure transmitter using four flange screws, as shown on the drilling diagram, and
tighten them gradually crosswise. Max. tightening torque: 60 Nm (slightly oiled).
During installation of the device, attention has to be paid to the diaphragms not being
damaged by the medium being measured. This is particularly important in the case of co-
agulating media that can have deforming influence on the diaphragms when they get cold.
Do not insulate the temperature coupler (tubular shank under the transmitter), as this
would reduce its decoupling effect.
