Installation
CAUTION
Please observe the following to ensure that the DL
is not damaged during installation and operation:
– Use approved sealing material only.
– Note the max. medium and ambient tempera-
tures, see page7 (Technical data).
– Condensation must not be allowed to get into
the housing (if possible, install pipework with an
ascending gradient). Otherwise, there is a risk of
icing of condensation at subzero temperatures,
1
/8)
the switching point shifting or corrosion in the
device which can lead to malfunctions.
– Protect the connections against dirt or moisture
in the medium to be measured or the surrounding air. If necessary, install a filter.
– In case of highly fluctuating pressures, install a
damping nozzle/restrictor orifice.
– When installing outdoors, place the DL in a
roofed area and protect from direct sunlight
(even IP65 version). To avoid condensation,
the cover with pressure equalization element
can be used on some types.
– In the case of an uneven mounting surface, se-
cure the pressure switch to the mounting plate
or air duct with only two screws on the same
side in order to avoid subjecting the pressure
switch to mechanical stress.
– When using silicone tubes, only use silicone
tubes which have been sufficiently cured. Vapours containing silicone can adversely affect
the functioning of electrical contacts.
– In the case of high humidity or aggressive gas
components, we recommend using a pressure
switch with gold contact due to its higher resistance to corrosion. Closed-circuit current monitoring is recommended under difficult operating
conditions.
▷
The DL must not be in contact with masonry.
Minimum clearance 20mm.
▷ Ensure that there is sufficient installation space.
▷ Ensure unobstructed view of the hand wheel.
▷
Installation in the vertical or horizontal position, or
upside down, preferably with vertical diaphragm.
If installed in a vertical position, the switching
pointpS will correspond to the scale valueSK.
Max. inlet pressure = withstand pressure, mains voltage, ambient temperature, enclosure: see type label.
