SENSOR HANDLING Handle all parts carefully to prevent damage. Whenever possible, transport
the system to the installation site in the original shipping containers.
PTFE-lined sensors are shipped with end covers that protect it from both
mechanical damage and normal unrestrained distortion. Remove the end
covers just before installation.
Flanged sensors with a lifting lug on each flange make the sensor easier to
handle when it is transported and lowered into place at the installation site.
Flanged sensors that do not have lugs must be supported with a lifting sling
on each side of the housing.
Figure 5-1 shows sensors correctly supported for handling and installation.
Notice the plywood end pieces are still in place to protect the sensor liner
during transportation.
