Safety messages

Procedures and instructions in this section may require special precautions to ensure the
safety of the personnel performing the operations.
WARNING
Explosions
Explosions could result in death or serious injury.
Before connecting a handheld communicator in an explosive atmosphere, ensure that
the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-
incendive field wiring practices.
In an explosion-proof/flameproof installation, do not remove the transmitter covers
when power is applied to the unit.
Process leaks
Install and tighten process connectors before applying pressure.
Electrical shock
Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present on leads
can cause electrical shock.
Static electricity
Observe safe handling precautions for static-sensitive components.
Conduit/cable entries
Unless marked, the conduit/cable entries in the transmitter housing use a ½–14 NPT
thread form. Entries marked "M20" are M20 × 1.5 thread form. On devices with multiple
conduit entries, all entries will have the same thread form. Only use plugs, adapters,
glands, or conduit with a compatible thread form when closing these entries.
When installing in a hazardous location, use only appropriately listed or Ex certified plugs,
glands, or adapters in cable/conduit entries.
