4 Mounting4.1 General instructionsMake sure that all parts of the instrument exposed to the process, inparticular the sensor element, process seal and process fitting, aresuitable for the existing process conditions. These include above allthe process pressure, process temperature as well as the chemicalproperties of the medium.You can find the specifications in chapter "Technical data" or on thetype label.In general, VEGACAP 65 must be mounted vertically. The instrumentmust be mounted in such a way that the probe is at the height of therequested switching point.Before beginning the welding work, remove the electronics modulefrom the sensor. By doing this, you avoid damage to the electronicsthrough inductive coupling.With threaded versions, the housing must not be used to screw in theinstrument! Applying tightening forces on the housing can damage itsinternal parts.Use the hexagon for screwing in.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. Thisapplies mainly to outdoor mounting as well as installation in areaswhere high humidity is expected (e.g. through cleaning processes) oron cooled or heated vessels.Fig. 3: Measures against moisture penetrationSuitability for processconditionsSwitching pointWelding workHandlingMoistureVEGACAP 65 • - transistor (NPN/PNP) 114 Mounting30018-EN-090604
