Remove the pressure transducer from service and mark it to prevent it from being used
again accidentally, if it becomes damaged or unsafe for operation
Take precautions with regard to remaining media in removed pressure transducers.
Remaining media in the pressure port may be hazardous or toxic!
Have repairs performed by the manufacturer only.
The operator is responsible for the material compatibility as well as correct handling,
operation and maintenance.
Information about material consistency against corrosion and diffusion can be found in our
WIKA-Handbook, 'Pressure and Temperature Measurement'.
For transducer with Ex-marking: Consider the relevant safety instructions as
well as the respective country specific regulations for installation and opera-
tion in hazardous areas (e.g.: EN/IEC 60079-14, NEC). Non-observance can

6. Packaging
Has everything been supplied?
Check the scope of supply:
Completely assembled transducer
Inspect the transducer for possible damage during transportation. Should there be
any obvious damage, inform the transport company and WIKA without delay.
The UHP transducers are purified, evacuated and double-packed in clean rooms
in a protective atmosphere (clean room class 5 according to ISO 14644). Special
plastic protective caps are used to protect the high-quality threaded connections
(fittings). The gauges should remain in this special packaging until installation in order
to prevent damage and contamination. Therefore remove the ESD (Electro-Static-
Discharge) protective foil only at the place of installation.

Keep the packaging, as it offers optimal protection during transportation (e.g. chan-
ging installation location, shipment for repair).
Ensure that the pressure connection thread and the connection contacts will not be
damaged.
Remove this protection cap only just before installing the transducer.
Mount the protection cap when removing and transporting the instrument.
Unpack the transducer
1. Remove the transducer from the box.
