1.2 Intended use of the device
Use these installation and operating instructions, the identification on the rating
plate (see 2.3) and the technical data sheet to check whether the device is
suitable for the intended use/application. The device complies with the
requirements of the European Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU.
The device is specially designed for use with steam, condensate and/or water
and may only be used to indicate the fill levels of containers. Although it can be used with other
media, in this case IGEMA GmbH should be contacted beforehand to ensure that the device
is suitable and designed for the desired application and medium.
The maximum values of the pressure and temperature range of the device must be checked
before installation. If the maximum allowable operating values of the device are lower than
those of the system on which it is to be installed, protective instruments for the device, such
as pressure reducers or similar, must be provided to avoid limit situations. The device may
only be used in accordance with the information in these installation and operating instructions
or for the parameters and applications agreed in the supply contract. (see rating plate, 2.3)
The operator of the direct water level indicator is obliged to familiarise himself on the
compatibility of the medium and the device. In case of doubt, contact the relevant installation
manager or site manager.
The correct installation position, alignment and flow direction of the device must be observed!
Before installing the IGEMA product on boilers or containers, it is essential to remove all
protective covers and, if necessary, the protective film from rating plates and sight glasses.
