Transport

WARNING – BODILY INJURY
Life-threatening danger due to suspended loads. In
the case of suspended loads, a danger of the load
falling exists.
Remaining under suspended loads is prohibited.
WARNING – RISK OF INJURY DUE TO FLOWMETER
SLIPPING .
The flowmeter's center of gravity may be higher than
the harness suspension points.
• Ensure that the flowmeter does not slip or turn
during transport.
• Support the flowmeter laterally during transport.

Storing the flowmeter

Bear the following points in mind when storing transmitters:
• Store the transmitter in its original packaging in a dry and
dust-free location.
• Observe the permitted ambient conditions for transport and
storage.
• Do not store the transmitter in direct sunlight.

Storage temperature

–20 to 60 °C (–4 to 140 °F).
The ambient conditions for the transport and storage of the
transmitter correspond to the ambient conditions for
operation of the transmitter.
Adhere to the transmitter data sheet (DS/FET400-EN).
