3.3 Storage and transport
Your instrument was protected by packaging during transport. Its
capacity to handle normal loads during transport is assured by a test
based on ISO 4180.
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.

4.1 General instructions
In the following cases, we recommend using an instrument version
with external housing:
• if the standard housing is too big
• if strong vibrations can damage the electronics
In Ex applications, only a housing with appropriate Ex approval must
be used.
4.2 Mounting preparations
The following tools are required for mounting the external housing.
Plastic housing:
• Hexagon spanner size 4
• Fork wrench, wrench size 19
Stainless steel housing:
• Fork wrench, wrench size 8
• Fork wrench, wrench size 19
We recommend using further material when mounting the wall mount-
ing plate.
• 4 screws, depending on the mounting surface
4.3 Mounting steps
1. Mark the holes according to the following drilling template
2. Depending on the mounting surface, fasten the wall mounting
plate with 4 screws

4 Mounting
External housing • VEGAWAVE
32357-EN-140801
Tip:
Mount the wall mounting plate in such a way that the cable gland of
the base points downward. Rain and condensation water can thus
draino.
The base of stainless steel can be displaced in 90° increments on the
wall mounting plate, the base of plastic by 180°.
Turn the cable gland of the electronics housing downward.The hous-
ing can be turned by 330° without the use of any tools.
Warning:
With the plastic housing, the four screws of the base may only be
screwedinhandtight.Exceedingthemax.torquespeciedinchapter
"Technical data" can damage the wall mounting plate.

5 Connect the sensor to the external
housing
5.1 Preparing the connection
Follow the instructions in the operating instructions manual of the
sensor.
5.2 Connection procedure
Note:
The metal sensor housing cannot be opened. The electrical connec-
tion must be carried out on the instrument housing.
1. Insert the cable end through the cable entry on the external hous-
ing (instrument housing)
Tip:
Only run the cable loosely. The connection cable can only be sepa-
rated on the external housing (instrument housing). If the sensor
should be dismounted, the connection cable must be free to take out
the sensor.
