Safety instructions

Appropriate use
The module and the connected transducers may be used for measurement
and directly related control tasks only. Any other use is not appropriate.
To ensure safe operation, the module may only be used as specified in the
operating manual. It is also essential to follow the respective legal and safety
regulations for the application concerned during use. The same applies to the
use of accessories.
Each time, before starting up the modules, you must first run a project
planning and risk analysis that takes into account all the safety aspects of
automation technology. This particularly concerns personal and machine
protection.
Additional safety precautions must be taken in plants where malfunctions
could cause major damage, loss of data or even personal injury. In the event
of a fault, these precautions establish safe operating conditions.
This can be done, for example, by mechanical interlocking, error signaling,
limit value switches, etc.
Safety rules
A module must not be connected directly to a power supply network.
The maximum permissible supply voltage is 10 V ... 30 V (DC).
The supply connection, as well as the signal and sense leads, must be
installed in such a way that electromagnetic interference does not adversely
affect device functionality (HBM recommendation: "Greenline shielding
design", downloadable from the Internet at http://www.hbm.com/Greenline).
Automation equipment and devices must be covered over in such a way that
adequate protection or locking against unintentional actuation is provided
(such as access checks, password protection, etc.).
When devices are working in a network, these networks must be designed in
such a way that malfunctions in individual nodes can be detected and shut
down.
Safety precautions must be taken both in terms of hardware and software, so
that a line break or other interruptions to signal transmission, such as via the
bus interfaces, do not cause undefined states or loss of data in the
automation device.
