3 Installation
3.1 Incoming acceptance, transport and storage
3.1.1 Incoming acceptance
On receipt of the goods, check the following points:
• Is the packaging or content damaged?
• Is anything missing from the shipment and does the scope of supply match your order?
3.1.2 Transport
Comply with the following instructions when unpacking the device and transporting it to its final
location:
• Transport the devices in the containers in which they are delivered.
• The covers or caps fitted to the process connections prevent mechanical damage to the sealing
faces and the ingress of foreign matter to the measuring tube during transportation and storage.
Consequently, do not remove these covers or caps until immediately before installation.
3.1.3 Storage
Note the following points:
• Pack the measuring device in such a way as to protect it reliably against impact for storage (and
transportation). The original packaging provides optimum protection.
• The permitted storage temperature is –40 to +80 °C (–40 to 176 °F), preferably +20 °C (+68 °F).
• Do not remove the protective caps on the process connections until you are ready to install the
device.
• The measuring device must be protected against direct sunlight during storage in order to avoid
unacceptably high surface temperatures.
3.2 Installation conditions
Note the following points:
• The measuring device is designed for mounting on tabletops, walls or pipes.
• The high oscillation frequency of the measuring tubes ensures that the correct operation of the
measuring system is not influenced by pipe vibrations.
• No special precautions need to be taken for fittings which create turbulence (valves, elbows,
T-pieces etc.) as long as no cavitation occurs.
• For mechanical reasons, and in order to protect the piping, it is advisable to support heavy sensors.
3.2.1 Dimensions
All the dimensions and lengths of the sensor and transmitter are provided in the separate
documentation entitled "Technical Information" → ä 94.
