6. Packaging
Has everything been supplied?
Check the scope of supply:
Completely assembled transducer
Inspect the transducer for possible damage during transportation. Should there be
any obvious damage, inform the transport company and WIKA without delay.
The UHP transducers are purified, evacuated and double-packed in clean rooms
in a protective atmosphere (clean room class 5 according to ISO 14644). Special
plastic protective caps are used to protect the high-quality threaded connections
(fittings). The gauges should remain in this special packaging until installation in order
to prevent damage and contamination. Therefore remove the ESD (Electro-Static-
Discharge) protective foil only at the place of installation.
