Thank you for choosing NIVELCO instrument. 1. INTRODUCTION NIPRESS D–B00 series pressure transmitters with ceramic flush sensor measure pressure and convert it into voltage and current output can be used in 2-wire systems. D-B00 has a really high overpressure resistance thanks to its Al 99.9% sensor.

3.2 ACCESSORIES - User’s and programming manual - Warranty card - EU declaration of conformity 3.3 SPECIAL CONDITIONS OF SAFE USE Before turning on the device, make sure the installation is complete, with no defects visible. The device may only be used within the limitations specified in the technical specifications. ...
4. INSTALLATION To enable the safe replacement of the instrument during operation the use of closing armature is recommended. A simple ball valve will be suitable for lower pressures and for higher pressures (above 6 bar) a three-way blow-off needle-valve can be suggested. In case of level measurement, it is advisable to screw the transmitter to the stump on the side of the tank.
