Has everything been supplied?
Check the scope of supply:
Completely assembled pressure transmitters.
„
With flush version including pre-assembled sealings and protection cap.
„
Inspect the pressure transmitter for possible damage during transportation. Should there
„
be any obvious damage, inform the transport company and SICK without delay.
Keep the packaging, as it offers optimal protection during transportation (e.g. changing
„
installation location, shipment for repair).
Ensure that the pressure connection thread and the connection contacts will not be
„
damaged.
In order to protect the diaphragm, the pressure connection with the flush-mounted version is
provided with a special protection cap.
Remove this protection cap only just before installing the pressure transmitter in order to
„
prevent any damage to the diaphragm or the thread.
Keep the protection cap of the pressure connection thread and the diaphragm for later
„
storage or transport.
Mount the protection cap when removing and transporting the instrument.

7. Starting, operation

Required tools: wrench (flats 27), screw driver
Diaphragm test for your safety
It is necessary that before starting the pressure transmitter you test the diaphragm visually, as this
is a safety-relevant component.
Pay attention to any liquid leaking out, for this points to a diaphragm damage.
„
Check the diaphragm visually for any damage (flush-mounted version).
„
Use the pressure transmitter only if the diaphragm is undamaged.
„
Warning
Use the pressure transmitter only if it is in a faultless condition as far as the
„
safety-relevant features are concerned.
