DANGER
DANGER: overpressure in the vacuum system
>1 bar
Injury caused by released parts and harm
caused by escaping process gases can result if
clamps are opened while the vacuum system is
pressurized.
Do not open any clamps while the vacuum sys-
tem is pressurized. Use the type of clamps which
are suited to overpressure.
DANGER
DANGER: overpressure in the vacuum system
>2.5 bar
KF connections with elastomer seals (e.g.
O-rings) cannot withstand such pressures. Pro-
cess media can thus leak and possibly damage
your health.
Use O-rings provided with an outer centering
ring.
DANGER
DANGER: protective ground
Incorrectly grounded products can be extremely
hazardous in the event of a fault.
The gauge must be electrically connected to the
grounded vacuum chamber. This connection
must conform to the requirements of a protective
connection according to EN 61010:
•
CF connections fulfill this requirement.
•
For gauges with a KF connection, use a con-
ductive metallic clamping ring.
Caution
Caution: vacuum component
Dirt and damages impair the function of the vac-
uum component.
When handling vacuum components, take ap-
propriate measures to ensure cleanliness and
prevent damages.
Caution
Caution: dirt sensitive area
Touching the product or parts thereof with bare
hands increases the desorption rate.
Always wear clean, lint-free gloves and use
clean tools when working in this area.
The gauge may be mounted in any orientation. To
keep condensates and particles from getting into the
measuring chamber preferably choose a horizontal
to upright position and possibly use a seal with a
centering ring and filter. If adjustment should be pos-
sible after the gauge has been installed, be sure to
install it so that the button can be accessed with a
pin (
→
"Adjusting the Gauge").
Remove the protective lid and install the product to the vac-
uum system.
