The cooling element can be hot as a result of previous use. Allow the cooling element to cool beforehand.
When screwing the instrument in, the force required to do
■
this must not be applied through the case or the cap ring, but
only through the spanner flats provided for this purpose and
using a suitable tool.
When there is a cooling element, the lower hexagon should
be used for tightening (see figure a "Mounting cooling
element")
The correct torque depends on the dimensions of the
process connection and the gasket used (form/material).
When screwing in, do not cross the threads.
■
For heat dissipation, the cooling element must not be
■
insulated.
If the instrument is mounted upside down, it must be ensured
■
that no water can collect on the electrical connection and on
the cap ring. Water can block the pressure compensation
diaphragm.
