WARNING!
Prior to commissioning, the pressure sensor must be subjected to a visual inspection.
Only use the pressure sensor if it is in perfect condition with respect to safety.
6.1 Making the mechanical connection
The sealing faces at the instrument have to be undamaged and
■
clean.
When screwing the instrument in, the force required to do this must
■
not be applied through the casing, but only through the spanner flats
provided for this purpose and using a suitable tool.
The correct torque depends on the dimensions of the process
connection and the gasket used (form/material).
