Protection against moisture

3.1General instructions for use of the instrument

Protect your instrument against moisture ingress through the following measures:

•Use a suitable connection cable (see chapter "Connecting to power supply")

•Tighten the cable gland or plug connector

•Lead the connection cable downward in front of the cable entry or plug connector

This applies mainly to outdoor installations, in areas where high humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) and on cooled or heated vessels.

Note:

Make sure that during installation or maintenance no moisture or dirt can get inside the instrument.

To maintain the housing protection, make sure that the housing lid is closed during operation and locked, if necessary.

4 Connecting to the bus system

			4		Connecting to the bus system
				4.1 Connecting
Connection technology				The voltage supply and signal output are connected via the spring-
				loaded terminals in the housing.
				Connection to the display and adjustment module or to the interface
				adapter is carried out via contact pins in the housing.
				Information:
				The terminal block is pluggable and can be removed from the
				electronics.To do this, lift the terminal block with a small screwdriver
				and pull it out.When reinserting the terminal block, you should hear it
				snap in.
Connection procedure				Proceed as follows:
			1.		Unscrew the housing lid
			2.		If a display and adjustment module is installed, remove it by turn-
					ing it slightly to the left
			3.		Loosen compression nut of the cable gland and remove blind
					plug
			4.		Remove approx.10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx.
					1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires
			5.		Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry

6. Insert the wire ends into the terminals according to the wiring plan

Note:

Solid cores as well as flexible cores with wire end sleeves are inserted directly into the terminal openings.In case of flexible cores without end sleeves, press the terminal from above with a small screwdriver, the terminal opening is then free.When the screwdriver is released, the terminal closes again.

7.Check the hold of the wires in the terminals by lightly pulling on them

8.Connect the shielding to the internal ground terminal, connect the external ground terminal to potential equalisation
