4.1 Transport
Check the submersible pressure sensor for any damage that may have been caused by transport.
Obvious damage must be reported immediately.
Make sure that the connection contacts are not damaged.
4.2 Packaging and storage
Do not remove packaging until just before mounting.
Keep the packaging as it will provide optimum protection during transport (e.g. change in installation site, sending for
repair).
Prior to storage, clean the submersible pressure sensor thoroughly (→ see chapter 7.3.2 "Cleaning")
