4 Mounting
4.1 General instructions
Select an installation position you can easily reach for
mounting and connecting as well as later retrofitting of
an indicating and adjustment module PLICSCOM. The
housing can be rotated by 330° without the use of any
tools. You can also install the indicating and adjustment
module PLICSCOM in four different positions (each
displaced by 90°).
Use the recommended cable (see chapter "Connecting
to power supply") and tighten the cable entry.
You can give your VEGAPULS 68 additional protection
against moisture penetration by leading the connection
cable downward in front of the cable entry. Rain and
condensation water can thus drain off. This applies
mainly to mounting outdoors, in areas where moisture is
expected (e.g. by cleaning processes) or on cooled or
heated vessels.
Fig. 2 : Measures against moisture penetration
The reference plane for the measuring range is the lower
edge of the flange or the seal surface of the thread.
Information:
If the product reaches the antenna, buildup can form on
it over a period of time and later cause measurement
errors.
