Air permeable and moisture-blocking
2)
Cable length 5 m (supplied cable)
3.2 Compensation of the atmos-
pheric pressure
On instruments for gauge pressure meas-
urement, the atmospheric pressure is com-
pensated in different ways, depending on the
pressure transmitter version.
Pressure transmitters with housing
- via an integrated breather facility below the
cable entry (PTFE insert
1)
), protection
IP 66
- via the capillary tubes of the special ca-
ble
2)
, used with the pressure transmitter,
protection IP 67
Pressure transmitters with direct cable
outlet
- via the capillary tubes of the connected
special cable
2)
, protection IP 68
External housing VEGABOX 01
We recommend leading the special cable to
the external housing VEGABOX 01 (acces-
sory) and carrying out the pressure compen-
sation via the integrated breather facility.
Keep the following instructions in mind:
- the same atmospheric pressure as on the
pressure transmitter must also be present
on the external housing VEGABOX 01
- the pressure compensation must be made
in a dry environment
- for vertical wall mounting, the cable entries
must point downwards to avoid moisture
ingress.

3.1 Mounting instructions
Cable entry
The pressure transmitters can be mounted in
any position. Cable entries must point down-
wards to avoid moisture ingress. For this
purpose, the housing can be rotated by 330°
in relation to the mounting part.
A seal, appropriate for connection, must be
used for mounting. This seal is either sup-
plied with the pressure transmitter or must be
provided by the customer.
