3.1 Incoming acceptance, transport and storage
3.1.1 Incoming acceptance
• Check the packaging and the contents for damage.
• Check the shipment, make sure nothing is missing and that the contents matches your
order.
3.1.2 Transport
The following instructions apply to unpacking and to transporting the device to its final
location:
• Transport the devices in the containers in which they are delivered.
• Do not remove the protective plates or caps on the process connections until the
device is ready to install. This is particularly important in the case of sensors with
Teflon linings.
Special notes on flanged devices
"
Caution:
• The wooden covers mounted on the flanges before the device leaves the factory pro-
tect the linings on the flanges during storage and transportation. Do not remove these
covers until immediately before the device is installed in the pipe.
• Do not lift flanged devices by the transmitter housing, or the connection housing in the
case of the remote version.
Transporting flanged devices (D ≤ 12" / DN ≤ 300):
Use webbed slings around the two process connections (Fig. 3). Do not use chains, as
they could damage the housing.
#
Warning:
Risk of injury if the measuring device slips. The center of gravity of the assembled meas-
uring device might be higher than the points around which the slings are.
At all times, therefore, make sure that the device does not unexpectedly turn around its
axis or slip.
