General information on installation
The following points must be observed for the installation:
•
The flow direction must correspond to the identification if present.
•
The maximum torque for all flange connections must be complied with.
•
The devices must be installed without mechanical tension (torsion, bending).
•
Install flange units with coplanar counter flanges and use only appropriate gaskets.
•
Use only gaskets made from a compatible material for the fluid and fluid temperatures.
•
Gaskets must not extend into the flow area since possible turbulence could influence the
device accuracy.
•
The pipeline may not exert any unallowable forces or torques on the device.
•
Do not remove the plugs in the cable connectors until you are ready to install the electrical
cable.
•
Make sure the gaskets for the housing cover are seated properly. Carefully seal the cover.
Tighten the cover fittings.
•
Do not expose the transmitter to direct sunlight. Provide appropriate sun protection as
necessary.
