11. Storage

Before installation, in order to prevent damage to the transmitters, the following
points should be observed:

The pressure transmitter should remain in its original packing until installation.
After taking out the transmitter (e.g. for tests), reuse the original packaging

material.

The storage temperature should not be less than -20 °C or more than +60 °C.
Transmitters should be protected against dust and humidity.
