2.2
Intended use
Application and media
The measuring device described in this manual is intended only for the flow measurement of
liquids with a minimum conductivity of 5 µS/cm.
Depending on the version ordered, the measuring device can also measure potentially
explosive, flammable, poisonous and oxidizing media.
Measuring devices for use in hazardous areas, in hygienic applications or in applications
where there is an increased risk due to process pressure, are marked accordingly on the
nameplate.
To ensure that the measuring device remains in proper condition for the operation time:
‣
Keep within the specified pressure and temperature range.
‣
Only use the measuring device in full compliance with the data on the nameplate and the
general conditions listed in the Operating Instructions and supplementary documentation.
‣
Based on the nameplate, check whether the ordered device is permitted for the intended
use in the hazardous area (e.g. explosion protection, pressure vessel safety).
‣
Use the measuring device only for media to which the process-wetted materials are
sufficiently resistant.
‣
If the ambient temperature of the measuring device is outside the atmospheric
temperature, it is absolutely essential to comply with the relevant basic conditions as
specified in the device documentation.
‣
Protect the measuring device permanently against corrosion from environmental
influences.
Incorrect use
Non-designated use can compromise safety. The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused
by improper or non-designated use.
L
WARNING
Danger of breakage due to corrosive or abrasive fluids and ambient conditions!
‣
Verify the compatibility of the process fluid with the sensor material.
‣
Ensure the resistance of all fluid-wetted materials in the process.
‣
Keep within the specified pressure and temperature range.
