Transport; Handling; Storage; Safety - ABB 2600T Serie Bedienungsanleitung

TRANSPORT

After final calibration, the instrument is packed in a carton intended to provide protection from physical damage.

HANDLING

The instrument does not require any special precautions during handling although normal good practice should be observed.

STORAGE

The instrument does not require any special treatment if stored as dispatched and within the specified ambient conditions level. The-
re is no limit to the storage period, although the terms of guarantee remain as agreed with the Company and as given in the order
acknowledgement.

SAFETY

Read this instruction carefully prior to installation and commissioning. For reasons of clarity, the instructions do not contain all details
on all types of product and do therefore not take into account every conceivable case of assembly, operation or maintenance. If you
want further information or if special problems arise which are not treated in detail in the instructions, please ask the manufacturer for
the necessary information.
Moreover we would like to point out that the content of these instructions is neither part of nor provided for changing a previous or
existing agreement, promise or legal relationship. All obligations of ABB Instrumentation result from the respective sales contract which
also comprises the complete and solely valid warranty clauses. Such contractual warranty clauses will neither be limited nor extended
by the content of these instructions.
Observe warning signs at packaging, etc.
For assembly, electrical connection, commissioning and maintenance of the transmitter, only qualified and authorized specialists are
to be employed, because they are experienced in the assembly, electrical connection, commissioning and operation of the transmitter
or similar devices holding the necessary qualifications for their job, e.g.:
– Training or instruction and/or authorization to operate and maintain devices/systems according to the safety engineering standard
for electric circuits, high pressures and aggressive media.
– Training or instruction according to the safety engineering standard regarding maintenance and use of adequate safety systems.
For the sake of your own safety, we draw your attention to the fact that for the electrical connection, only sufficiently isolated tools acc.
to EN 60 900 may be used.
Furthermore consider the following regulations:
– The pertinent safety regulations concerning the construction and operation of electrical installations, e.g. the rule regarding technical
working material (safety rule for instruments), have to be observed.
– The pertinent standards.
– The regulations and recommendations relating to explosion protection if explosion-proof transmitters are to be installed.
– The safety raccomandation if installed in a SIL loop as described in the Safety Manual (please look at the end of this manual)
The device can be operated with high pressure and aggressive media. Serious injury and/or considerable material damage can therefore
be caused when this device is handled incorrectly. Please observe the pertinent national rules when using pressure transmitters.

INSTALLATION

Warning
For installation in Hazardous Areas, i.e. areas with dangerous
concentrations of e.g. gases or dusts that may explode if
ignited, the installation must be carried out in accordance with
relative standards either EN 60079-14 and/or with local authority
regulations, for the relevant type of protection adopted.
Caution
Proper location of the transmitter with respect to the process pipe
will depend upon the service for which the instrument is used.
Care should be exercised to identify correct process connections.
NOTE
In differential pressure transmitters the high side is marked with
"H" or "+" and low side with "L" or "-".
General
Before mounting the transmitter, check whether the model meets the measurement and safety requirements of the measuring point,
e.g., with regard to materials, pressure rating, temperature, explosion protection and operating voltage. The relevant recommendations,
regulations, standards and the rules for prevention of accidents must also be observed! Measurement accuracy is largely dependent
upon correct installation of the transmitter and the related measurement piping. The measuring set-up should be screened as much as
possible from critical ambient conditions such as major temperature variations, vibration and shock. For example, if ambient conditions
may change considerably as a result of locating the transmitter near a building structure, this may influence the measurement quality!

Warning
In order to ensure operator safety and plant safety it is essential
that installation is carried out by suitably trained personnel
according to the technical data provided in the specification for
the relevant model.
To find out the "Operative limits" please refer to the dedicated
chapter of the instruction manual and datasheets.
Warning
The transmitter should not be installed where it may be subjected
to mechanical and thermal stresses or where it may be attached
by existing or foreseeable aggressive substances.
ABB cannot guarantee that a construction material is suited to
a particular process fluid under all possible process conditions.
Fill fluids and wet parts materials selection is under user's full
responsibility.
