6 Commissioning, operation
6. Commissioning, operation
The process transmitter should only be commissioned and operated by skilled
personnel.
6.1 Mechanical mounting
6.1.1 Selecting the installation site
The space required is dependent on the design variant of the process transmitter.
The case head is rotatable through 330° and the display and operating unit can be
inserted and oriented in 90° steps. Thus the process transmitter can be adjusted to the
installation site (see figures under chapter 4.1 “Description”).
Select an installation site that has sufficient space for:
■
Carrying out a safe electrical mounting.
■
Being able to use the operating elements following the mounting.
