114 MountingVEGABAR 52 • 4 … 20 mA36716-EN-1303214 Mounting4.1 General instructionsMake sure that all parts of the instrument coming in direct contactwith the process, especially the sensor element, process seal andprocess fitting, are suitable for the existing process conditions, suchas process pressure, process temperature as well as the chemicalproperties of the medium.You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" and on thenameplate.Select an installation position you can easily reach for mounting andconnecting as well as later retrofitting of a display and adjustmentmodule. The housing can be rotated by 330° without the use of anytools. You can also install the display and adjustment module in fourdifferent positions (each displaced by 90°).Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to powersupply") and tighten the cable gland.You can give your instrument additional protection against moisturepenetration by leading the connection cable downward in front of thecable entry. Rain and condensation water can thus drain off. This ap-plies mainly to outdoor mounting as well as installation in areas wherehigh humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) or oncooled or heated vessels.Fig. 3: Measures against moisture penetrationThe ventilation of the electronics housing as well as the atmosphericpressure compensation for the measuring cell are realised via a filterelement in the area of the cable gland.Suitability for the processconditionsInstallation positionMoistureVentilation and pressurecompensation
