4. Design and function

4.1 Description
EN The prevailing pressure is measured at the sensor element through the deformation of a diaphragm.
By supplying power, this deformation of the diaphragm is converted into an electrical signal. The output
signal from the pressure sensor is amplified and standardised.

4.2 Scope of delivery

Cross-check scope of delivery with delivery note.

5. Transport, packaging and storage

5.1 Transport
Check the instrument for any damage that may have been caused by transport.
Obvious damage must be reported immediately.
5.2 Packaging
Do not remove packaging until just before mounting.
Keep the packaging as it will provide optimum protection during transport (e.g. change in installation
site, sending for repair).
5.3 Storage
Permissible conditions at the place of storage:
Storage temperature: See chapter 3 "Specifications"
WARNING!
Before storing the pressure sensor (following operation), remove any residual media. This is
of particular importance if the medium is hazardous to health, e.g. caustic, toxic, carcinogenic,
radioactive, etc.
