• Note the e󹪜ect of the ambient temperature on the measuring accuracy in the
section Technical data (Page 61).
• For remote seal mounting, observe the notes in the section "Mounting with remote seal" of
the operating instructions.
Mounting location
Verify that the mounting location meets the following conditions:
• Accessible
• Close to the measuring point
• Vibration-free
• Within the permitted ambient temperature values
Protect the pressure transmitter from:
• Direct heat radiation
• Rapid temperature 󹪞uctuations
• Heavy contamination
• Mechanical damage
• Direct sunlight
Note
Select the height of the mounting 󹪞ange such that the pressure transmitter is always mounted
below the lowest 󹪝ll height to be measured.
Procedure
1. Attach the seal to the container's mating 󹪞ange.
Ensure that the seal is centrally positioned and that it does not restrict the movement of the
󹪞ange's seal diaphragm in any way. Otherwise, the seal of the process connection is not
guaranteed to be tight.
2. Screw on the pressure transmitter's 󹪞ange.
3. Observe the installation position.
