6. Packaging
Has everything been supplied?
Check the scope of supply:
Completely assembled pressure transmitters; with flush version N-11 including pre-
assembled sealings and protection cap.
Inspect the pressure transmitter for possible damage during transportation. Should
there be any obvious damage, inform the transport company and WIKA without delay.
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.
In order to protect the diaphragm, the pressure connection of the instrument N-11 is provided
with a special protection cap.
Remove this protection cap by hand only just before installing the pressure transmitter
in order to prevent any damage to the diaphragm or the thread.
Keep the protection cap of the pressure connection thread and the diaphragm for
later storage or transport.
Mount the protection cap when removing and transporting the instrument.

7. Starting, operation
Diaphragm test for your safety
It is necessary that before starting the pressure transmitter you test the diaphragm visually, as
this is a safety-relevant component.
Pay attention to any liquid leaking out, for this points to a diaphragm
!
damage.
Check the diaphragm visually for any damage (N-11).
Warning
Use the pressure transmitter only if the diaphragm is undamaged.
Use the pressure transmitter only if it is in a faultless condition as far as the
safety-relevant features are concerned.
Mechanical connection
max.
50 Nm
Sealing
Protect the diaphragm against any contact with abrasive substances and
pressure peaks and do not touch it with tools. If you damage the diaphragm,
no intrinsic safety can be guaranteed (ATEX)!
Warning
Ensure that under hazardous ennvironment the pressure transmitter is
mounted in a shielded section and protect it against shocks.
Observe the technical data for the use of the pressure transmitter in connec-
tion with aggressive / corrosive media and for the avoidance of mechanical
hazards.
