Has everything been supplied?
Check the scope of supply:
„ Completely assembled transducer
Inspect the transducer for possible damage during transportation. Should there be
„
any obvious damage, inform the transport company and WIKA without delay.
The transducer is purified, evacuated and double-bagged for clean-room service
„
and should remain packaged until installation. A protective cap is used to protect the
face sealing beads from nicks or scratches. This plug should remain in place during
storage and handling, in order to prevent damage to the bead. Therefore remove the
inner ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) bag only at the place of installation.
„ Keep the packaging, as it offers optimal protection during transportation (e.g. chan-
ging installation location, shipment for repair).
„ Ensure that the pressure connection thread and the connection contacts will not be
damaged.
„ Remove this protection cap only just before installing the pressure transmitter
Mount the protection cap when removing and transporting the instrument.
„
Unpack the transducer
1. Remove the transducer from the box.
2. Remove the outer protective bag and discard.
3. Carry the transducer (sealed in the inner bag), into the clean area.

Don't use this
spanner flat!
Use this spanner flat
for screwing in!
„ Remove the protection cap only just before installation.
„ When mounting the instrument, ensure that the sealing faces of the instrument and
the measuring point are clean and undamaged.
Do not scratch or nick the bead. Do not over tighten. Damage to the bead will affect
„
the fitting's performance and may cause leakage in the system.
Screw in or unscrew the instrument only via the flats using a suitable tool and the
„
prescribed torque. The appropriate torque depends on the dimension of the pressure
connection and on the sealing element used (form/material). Do not use the case as
working surface for screwing in or unscrewing the instrument.
When screwing the transmitter in, ensure that the threads are not jammed.
