5. Commissioning, operation
Before installation, commissioning and operation, ensure that the appropriate instrument
has been selected in terms of scale range, design and specific measuring conditions.
The operator must ensure that the system is properly installed and checked before it is
commissioned for the first time. An explosion protection document must be created under
the responsibility of the operator. The proper condition of the system is maintained through
regular testing and maintenance.

5.1 Mechanical mounting

CAUTION!
Damage to the instrument
In order to prevent any damage to the instrument, observe the following:
▶
The instrument must not be subjected to any mechanical loading (e.g. use
as a climbing aid, support for objects).
▶
Install the instrument in such a way that process-related electrostatic
charges (e.g. caused by flowing media) can be excluded.
▶
Ensure that the instrument can establish a proper wireless connection to
the gateway.
▶
When installing, make sure that the instrument is installed with as little
vibration as possible and free from magnetic fields.
Safety instructions for installation
Install instruments in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the valid
standards and regulations. For outdoor applications, the selected installation location has
to be suitable for the specified ingress protection, so that the instrument is not exposed to
impermissible weather conditions. In order to avoid any additional heating, the instruments
must not be exposed to direct solar irradiation while in operation.
To ensure that the ingress protection level is maintained, ensure that the seal
is fitted.
