Mounting Mounting Installation position The instruments function in any installation position. But the installation position can influence the measurement, depending on the measuring system. This can be compensated by a position correction. It is useful to select an installation position you can easily reach for mount- ing and connecting as well as later retrofitting of an display and adjustment module.
