8. Maintenance and cleaning

8.1 Maintenance
Repairs must only be carried out by the manufacturer.
8.2 Cleaning
CAUTION!
■
Before cleaning, correctly disconnect the pressure sensor from the
pressure supply, switch it off and disconnect it from the voltage supply.
■
Clean the instrument with a moist cloth.
■
Electrical connections must not come into contact with moisture.
■
Wash or clean the dismounted instrument before returning it, in order to
protect persons and the environment from exposure to residual media.
■
Residual media in the dismounted pressure sensor can result in a risk to
persons, the environment and equipment. Take sufficient precautionary
measures.
For information on returning the instrument see chapter 10.2 "Return".
