Delivery, Transport and Storage

Check the packaging and contents for damage. In the event of damage, notify the postal
service or express agent and inform the supplier.
Check the scope of supply for completeness and correctness using the order and delivery
papers.
Keep the original packaging.
The device should always be stored or transported in the original packaging.
Always store the device in a dry and clean environment. Observe the permissible storage
temperature (see data sheet).

Installation and Commissioning

1.6.1

Installation of the sensor

The sensor may be installed in potentially explosive zone 0 in accordance with Directive
94/9/EC (ATEX). The sensor must not be installed in places with potentially aggressive vapors.
The sensor and warning device must be free of voltage during installation and maintenance.
The warning device must only be connected to the supply voltage after complete mounting and
connection of the sensors.
The cable and the identification plate attached to it are elements of the product. The cable must
not be shortened to such an extent that the identification plate is removed. The identification
plate must not be removed.
The sensor has IP68 protection and is weather- and oil-resistant. It can therefore be installed in
oil/petrol separators.
When installing the device in oil/petrol separators, observe the permissible ambient
temperature in the range from -20 °C ... 60 °C (253 K ... 333 K).
1.6.2

Installation in connection with intrinsically safe circuits

Installation of the intrinsically safe power circuits of the devices is permitted in potentially
explosive zones, whereby, in particular, safe separation from all non-intrinsically safe power
circuits must be guaranteed.
The intrinsically safe current circuits must be installed according to valid setup regulations.
For the interconnection of the intrinsically safe field devices and the intrinsically safe power
circuits of the associated devices, the respective maximum values of the field device and the
associated device with regard to explosion protection must be observed (proof of intrinsic
safety). EN 60079-14/IEC 60079-14 must be observed.
