Has everything been supplied?
Check the scope of supply:
■
Completely assembled transducer
■
Inspect the transducer for possible damage during transportation. Should there be any
obvious damage, inform the transport company and WIKA without delay.
■
The UHP transducers are purified, evacuated and double-packed in clean rooms in a protec
-
tive atmosphere (clean room class 5 according to ISO 14644). Special plastic protective
caps are used to protect the high-quality threaded connections (fittings). The gauges should
remain in this special packaging until installation in order to prevent damage and contamina-
tion. Therefore remove the ESD (Electro-Static-Discharge) protective foil only at the place of
installation.
■
Keep the packaging, as it offers optimal protection during transportation (e.g. changing
installation location, shipment for repair).
■
Ensure that the pressure connection thread and the connection contacts will not be damaged.
■
Remove this protection cap only just before installing the transducer.
■
Mount the protection cap when removing and transporting the instrument.
Unpack the transducer
1. Remove the transducer from the box.
2. Remove the outer protective bag and discard.
3. Carry the transducer (sealed in the inner bag), into the clean area.
