Commissioning, Operation; Mounting Preparation - WIKA PG43SA-S Mode D'emploi

4. Transport ... / 5. Commissioning, operation
Avoid touching the diaphragm after removing the
diaphragm protection. Impermissible mechanical loading
(e.g. pressing the diaphragm) can result in measuring
deviations or even in the complete failure of the measur-
ing instrument.
The PG43SA-C is optionally packed under sterile condi-
tions, and on the perforation on the rear of the sterile
packaging there is a brown-coloured process indicator.
By checking this brown colouration you can find out
whether the gauge has been packed under sterile
conditions.
Store instruments that are packed under sterile
conditions in the instrument package (no condensation
allowed, storing possible for 6 months).
Permissible conditions at the place of storage
Storage temperature: -40 ... +70 °C
Protect the instrument from dust.

5.1 Mounting preparation

To protect the instrument from mechanical damage keep it in the
„
outer carton until installation.
The measuring instrument should only be removed from the
„
sterile packaging shortly before mounting at the measuring point.
With CIP (cleaning in place) we recommend to clean the measur-
„
ing instrument again after mounting, using the process estab-
lished at the operator's site.
With COP (cleaning out of place) we recommend to clean the
„
measuring instrument again before mounting, using the process
established at the operator's site.
