4.1 General instructions
The VEGABOX 03 can be mounted in any position. However, vertical
mounting with the cable gland downward is recommended. This pre-
vents soiling of the breather facility and the ingress of moisture.
Protect your instrument against moisture penetration through the fol-
lowing measures:
•
Use the recommended cable (see chapter "
Connecting to power
supply
")
•
Tighten the cable gland
•
Loop the connection cable downward in front of the cable gland
This applies particularly to:
•
Outdoor mounting
•
Installations in areas where high humidity is expected (e.g. through
cleaning processes)
•
Installations on cooled or heated vessels
