• If required or if in doubt: ask manufacturer for specifications.
• Flameproof joints are not intended to be repaired.
• In the event of potentially explosive vapor/air mixtures, only operate the device under atmospheric
conditions.
– Temperature: –20 to +60 °C
– Pressure: 80 to 110 kPA (0.8 to 1.1 bar)
– Air with normal oxygen content, usually 21 % (V/V)
• If no potentially explosive mixtures are present, or if additional protective measures have been
taken, the device may also be operated under non-atmospheric conditions in accordance with the
manufacturer' s specifications.
• Only use the device in media to which the wetted materials have sufficient durability (e.g. process
connection seal).
• When using under non-atmospheric pressures and non-atmospheric temperatures: The sensor part
of the device approved for Zone 0 does not cause any ignition hazards.
Device type FTL70, FTL71, Basic specification, Position 11 (Application) = L, N, Y
• While observing the "temperature derating", the device is suitable for process temperatures up to
300 °C.
• When operating, ensure that you rule out contact between hot component surfaces and potentially
explosive atmospheres beyond the limits of the corresponding temperature class.
Suitable measures: e.g. thermal insulation at container and/or pipes.
• The temperature of 85 °C specified at the reference point may not be exceeded.
• To protect the electronics, observe the specified ambient temperature at the electronics housing.
