For all devices
WARNING
Destruction of device
If external loads act on the device, it could be destroyed. In the worst case, process medium could escape.
It is therefore essential to prevent external loads from acting on the device.
WARNING
Protection against incorrect use of the measuring instrument
Make sure that the selected materials for the wetted parts of the measuring instrument are suitable for the process media
used in order to ensure both the safety of the personnel and the device.
Use the device only within the measuring spans for pressure, overload pressure limits and voltage limits specified on the
nameplate. Otherwise, hot and toxic media may leak and lead to personal injury.
CAUTION
Risk of burns
Install additional touch protection for surface temperatures > 70 °C.
The touch protection must be designed in such a way that the maximum permissible ambient temperature at the device is
not exceeded.
The permissible ambient temperatures for the device can be found in the technical data or on the nameplate.
CAUTION
Risk of injury
Install the device such that automatic emptying is ensured and the entire process medium is drained. Otherwise, the
residual process media may cause damage.
For example, do not install the device at the bottom of the tank, install it on its side, instead.
