The corresponding parts on the process side, the seals and the sealing rings are not
included in the delivery.
The insertion length, along with the flow rate and viscosity of the process media, may
reduce the max. loading on the protection tube.
The case must be grounded against electromagnetic fields and electrostatic charge. It
is not necessary to connect the case separately to the equipotential bonding system,
provided that it has a fixed and secure contact to the metallic vessel, its components or
pipes, and that these are connected to the equipotential bonding system.
When there is a non-metallic contact with the vessel, or with its structural components or
piping, the instrument must be provided with equipotential bonding.
