CAUTION!
Electrostatic discharge
When working during running process operations, avoid any
electrostatic discharge as this can lead to a temporary error
in the measured value.
▶
Take measures to prevent electrostatic discharge on the
connection terminals.
When the instrument is installed, the temperature must not drop below
the allowed operating temperature (environment, medium) or exceed it,
even when taking convection and heat radiation into account!
5.1 Installation
The holes for fixing are dependent on the version.
There is a mounting set for 1 ... 2" pipes for the "round" version of the
field case (can be ordered as an option).

5.2 Cable glands

With this instrument, the cable gland must be optimally sealed to ensure
that the required ingress protection is reached.
Requirements for meeting ingress protection
Only use cable glands within their indicated clamping area (cable
■
diameter suitable for the cable gland).
Do not use the lower clamping area with very soft cable types.
■
Only use round cables (if necessary, slightly oval in cross-section).
■
Do not twist the cable.
■
Repeated opening/closing is possible; however only if necessary, as it
■
might have a detrimental effect on the ingress protection
For cable with a pronounced cold-flow behaviour the gland must be
■
fully tightened.
