1. It is necessary to prevent the sensor from contacting corrosive gases, so as not to cause corrosion and affect the measurement results.

2. If the measurement is a high-temperature medium, the Sick $ICK sensor should see whether the temperature is within the appropriate temperature range of the sensor, if not, you can't use this device to measure, you need to choose a suitable sensor to measure, but at the same time, you should also pay attention to the measurement, do not have sediment sedimentation.

3. The impulse tube should be installed in an area with a small temperature change, not in a place where the temperature fluctuation is relatively large, so as not to damage the force equipment.

4. When measuring liquid, it is necessary to prevent the direct impact of the liquid on the sensor, because the direct impact of the liquid may cause damage to the sensor, which will affect the accuracy of the measurement results, and may also make it unable to work normally.

5. When measuring gas, the sensor should be installed in the upper part of the process pipeline, and the pressure port of the SICK sensor should also be opened at the top of the process pipeline, so that the accumulated liquid can flow into the process pipeline.

6. When wiring, use a waterproof connector and tighten the nut to avoid rainwater from entering the shell of the transmitter.

7. If the weather is cold in winter, the temperature is relatively low, or even when freezing, when the sensor is installed outdoors, anti-freezing and warmth measures must be taken to prevent the liquid in the impulse port from increasing and expanding in volume due to icing and destroying the sensor.
