5.1 Transport
Check the pressure transmitter for any damage that may have been caused during transportation.
Obvious damage must be reported immediately.
A recieved-goods inspection determines the purity of the pressure transmitter. It is only
guaranteed if the packaging is undamaged or unopened.
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 conditions at the place of storage:
■ Storage temperature: -25 ... +80 °C
■ Humidity: 15 ... 95 % (no condensation)
Only ever store the pressure transmitter in its original packaging.
WARNING!
Before storing the pressure transmitter (following operation), remove any residual
media. This is of particular importance if the medium is hazardous to health,
e.g. caustic, toxic, carcinogenic, radioactive, etc.
