NOTICE
Torque with NPT screwed gland
Device damage. The maximum torque of the cable gland must not be exceeded.
• To avoid damage to the device, the NPT adapter must be held in place while the NPT gland
is screwed into the NPT adapter. Refer to the section "Technical specications > Mechanical
construction (Page63)" for the torque value.
NOTICE
Standard cable gland/torque
Device damage.
• Owing the reasons pertaining to tightness (IP enclosure rating) and the required tensile
strength, only use the cables having a diameter ≥ 8 mm for standard M20x1.5 cable gland,
or use a suitable seal insert in case of smaller diameters.
• In the NPT version, the positioner is delivered with a coupling. When inserting a counter
piece in the coupling, ensure that the maximum permissible torque of 10Nm is not
exceeded.
NOTICE
Condensation in the device
Damage to device through formation of condensation if the temperature dierence between
transportation or storage and the mounting location exceeds 20°C (36°F).
• Before taking the device into operation, let the device adapt for several hours in the new
environment.
NOTICE
Ambient temperature too high
Damage to cable sheath.
• At an ambient temperature ≥60°C (140°F), use heat-resistant cables suitable for an
ambient temperature at least 20°C (36°F) higher.
WARNING
Eliminating or reducing the sources of ignition within the equipment
Potential re hazard.
• The product must be connected to an energy-limited circuit.
• Connect the device according to the information in Input (Page61).
