You have to remove this plug before electrical connection.
NPT thread
In the case of instrument housings with self-sealing NPT threads, it
is not possible to have the cable entry screwed in at the factory. The
cable gland is therefore covered with a red dust protection cap as
transport protection.
Note:
To ensure the housing protection class, you must replace this protec-
tive cap with an approved NPT cable gland before setup.
Note:
Do not use grease when screwing in the NPT cable gland or a conduit
steel pipe.
Maximum torque see chapter " Technical data".
5.2 Connecting
The voltage supply and signal output are connected via the spring-
loaded terminals in the housing.
