3.3 Grounding
Figure 3-1: Grounding
1 Metal grounding strip
2 Grounding of the installation
CAUTION!
The groundingstrip should not transmit any interference voltage. Therefore do not ground any
other electrical device at the same conductor.
CAUTION!
When connecting to functional extra-low voltages (24VDC), ensure that you use protective
separation (PELV) according to IEC 60364/IEC 61140 or VDE 0100/VDE 0106.
CAUTION!
The installation requires metal piping and flanges on both sides of the process connections to
ensure galvanic connection to the liquid.
CAUTION!
Do not use excessive force to tighten the M12 nut, when connecting the metal ground strip
(maximum torque allowed d4 Nm).
