5. Transport, packaging and storage

5.1 Transport

Check the instrument for any damage that may have been caused by transport.
Obvious damage must be reported immediately.

5.2 Packaging

Do not remove packaging until just before mounting.
Keep the packaging as it will provide optimum protection during transport (e.g.
change in installation site, sending for repair).

5.3 Storage

Permissible storage temperature
-40 ... +70 °C

6. Commissioning, operation

Personnel: Skilled personnel
Before commissioning the instrument, the conditions from chapter 2.7 "Special
conditions for safe use (X conditions)" must be fulfilled.

Mechanical connection

In accordance with the general technical regulations for pressure measuring
instruments (e.g. EN 837-2 "Selection and installation recommendations for
pressure gauges").
When screwing the instruments in, the force required for sealing must not be
applied through the case, but only through the spanner flats provided for this
purpose, and using a suitable tool.
For parallel threads, use flat gaskets, lens-type sealing rings or WIKA profile
sealings at the sealing face . With tapered threads (e.g. NPT threads), sealing is
made in the threads , using a suitable sealing material (EN 837-2).
