Note!
• Clamp connection
Sensors with clamp connections can be fixed using sheet metal brackets or solid brackets.
Sheet metal brackets have a lower dimensional stability, uneven bearing surfaces causing point
loads and sometimes sharp edges that can damage the clamp.
We strongly recommend to always use solid brackets because of their higher dimensional
stability. Solid brackets may be applied over the total pressure-temperature range (see diagram on
page 5).
• Threaded connection
Sensors with threaded connections are supplied with expansion bellows (compensator) to be able
to align them in flow direction. The two O-rings (Viton) of the expansion bellows have no sealing
function and are not in contact with medium. The process is usually sealed off by PTFE tape on
the G 1½ thread.
