Inappropriate or incorrect use of the instrument can give rise to
application-specific hazards,e.g.vessel overfill or damage to system
components through incorrect mounting or adjustment.
2.4General safety instructions
This is a high-tech instrument requiring the strict observance of
standard regulations and guidelines.The user must take note of the
safety instructions in this operating instructions manual,the country-
specific installation standards as well as all prevailing safety
regulations and accident prevention rules.
The instrument must only be operated in a technically flawless and
reliable condition.The operator is responsible for trouble-free
operation of the instrument.
During the entire duration of use,the user is obliged to determine the
compliance of the necessary occupational safety measures with the
current valid rules and regulations and also take note of new
regulations.
2.5Safety instructions for Ex areas
Please note the Ex-specific safety information for installation and
operation in Ex areas.These safety instructions are part of the
operating instructions manual and come with the Ex-approved
instruments.

3.3Packaging,transport and storage
The device was protected by packaging during transport.Its capacity
to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test according
to DIN EN 24180.
The packaging of standard instruments consists of environment-
friendly,recyclable cardboard.For special versions,PE foam or PE foil
is also used.Dispose of the packaging material via specialised
recycling companies.
Transport must be carried out under consideration of the notes on the
transport packaging.Nonobservance of these instructions can cause
damage to the device.
The delivery must be checked for completeness and possible transit
damage immediately at receipt.Ascertained transit damage or
concealed defects must be appropriately dealt with.
Up to the time of installation,the packages must be left closed and
stored according to the orientation and storage markings on the
outside.
Unless otherwise indicated,the packages must be stored only under
the following conditions:
lNot in the open
lDry and dust free
lNot exposed to corrosive media
lProtected against solar radiation
lAvoiding mechanical shock and vibration
lStorage and transport temperature see chapter "Supplement -
Technical data -Ambient conditions"
lRelative humidity 20 …85 %

4Mounting
4.1General instructions
VEGABOX 02 can be mounted in any position.However,vertical
mounting is recommended.This avoids pollution of the breather facility
and moisture penetration.
Note:
There must be the same atmospheric pressure on the breather facility
as on the measuring point.Otherwise the measured value can be
adulterated.
Use the recommended cables (see chapter "Connecting to power
supply")and tighten the cable gland.
4.2Instructions for installation
VEGABOX 02 can be mounted as follows:
lon carrier rail 35 x7.5according to EN 50022
lon mounting plate or on the wall

5Connecting to power supply
5.1Preparing the connection
Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:
lConnect only in the complete absence of line voltage
In hazardous areas you must take note of the respective regulations,
conformity and type approval certificates of the sensors and power
supply units.
The instrument is connected with standard two-wire cable without
screen.If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the
test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas,screened cable should be
used.
Use cable with round cross-section.Acable outer diameter of 5…9mm
(0.2…0.35 in)ensures the seal effect of the cable gland.If you are
using cable with a different diameter or cross-section,exchange the
seal or use a suitable cable gland.
When the optionally integrated temperature transmitter is also
connected,a four-wire cable is required;when an external temper-
ature transmitter is connected,a six-wire cable is required.

Fig.2:Connection of VEGABOX 02 to the sensor
Take note of the corresponding installation regulations for Ex
applications.
If screened cable is necessary,connect the cable screen on both ends
to ground potential.In the VEGABOX 02,the screen must be
connected directly to the internal ground terminal.The ground terminal
on the outside of the housing must be connected to the potential
equalisation (low impedance).
If potential equalisation currents are expected,the connection on the
processing side must be made via a ceramic capacitor (e.g.1nF,
1500 V). The low frequency potential equalisation currents are thus
suppressed,but the protective effect against high frequency interfer-
ence signals remains.
InEx applications,one-sided grounding on the sensor is recommen-
ded,see EN 60079-14.

tion cable for Ex
applications
