1.6
Technical limit values
The device is designed for use exclusively within the stated values on the model plate and
within the technical limit values specified in the data sheets.
The following technical limit values must be observed:
•
The permissible pressure (PS) in the permissible temperature (TS) may not exceed the
pressure-temperature ratings.
•
The maximum operating temperature may not be exceeded.
•
The permitted operating temperature may not be exceeded.
•
The housing protection system must be observed.
1.7
Allowed Fluids
When measuring fluids, the following points must be observed:
•
Fluids may only be used if, based on state-of-the-art technology or the operating experience
of the user, it is assured that chemical and physical properties of the components coming
into contact with the fluids (signal electrodes, ground electrodes, liners and, possibly,
process connections, protective plates or protective flanges) are not affected during the
operating life.
Fluids with unknown properties or abrasive fluids may only be used if the operator can
•
perform regular and suitable tests to ensure the safe condition of the device.
•
Observe the information on the name plate.
1.8
Transport safety information
•
Depending on the device, the center of gravity may not be in the center of the equipment.
•
The protection plates or protective caps installed on the process connections of devices lined
with PTFE / PFA must not be removed until just before installation; to prevent possible
leakage, make sure that the liner on the flange is not cut or damaged.
