Sealing the pressure compensation

If the myDatalogEASY IoT ATEX is used in slightly corrosive environments, the pressure compensation must be sealed using the sticker included in the Gas protection set (301414). The Gas protection set is included in the scope of delivery of the myDatalogEASY IoT ATEX .

Important:
  • The sticker does not protect against high concentrations of highly corrosive gases.
  • When sealing the pressure compensation, the silica gel pouch must also be inserted in the device of the myDatalogEASY IoT ATEX .

  2. Clean the adhesive surface with the cleaning cloth included in the Gas protection set (301414).
  3. Seal the vent with the sticker included in the Gas protection set .

  4. Remove the four screws that secure the housing lid. Then open the myDatalogEASY IoT ATEX .
    Important: In the event of adverse weather conditions including rain or in a location where water can penetrate from above, suitable measures must be implemented to protect the device from penetrating moisture when the housing cover is open.
  5. Insert the silica gel pouch in the myDatalogEASY IoT ATEX .
    Important: Ensure that the pouch is inserted properly so that it is not pinched between the base part and the housing lid when you later close the housing, thus endangering the tightness of the device.

    Proceed as follows during this process:

    1. Hold the pouch in a way that the longer side is pointing downwards.
    2. Shake the bag to distribute the silica gel evenly along this longer side of the bag.
    3. Fold over the top empty area of the bag to create a more compact bulging bag.
    4. Insert the pouch with this folded side down in the myDatalogEASY IoT ATEX .
       
  6. Close the housing lid. The best option is to tighten the four screws crosswise (torque: max. 1 Nm) so that the housing cover is positioned evenly.
    Important: Ensure that the seals are clean and intact before closing the housing cover. Remove any impurities and/or dirt. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any damage to the device caused by leaky or faulty seals.
  7. Check that the housing cover is positioned correctly on all sides and that no foreign materials have been trapped between the housing and housing cover.
    Important: The manufacturer is not liable for any damage that is caused by housing covers that are not closed correctly.
