Intended use
The MP85A process controller is to be used exclusively for measurement
tasks and directly related control tasks. Use for any purpose other than the
above is deemed to be non-designated use. In the interests of safety, the
device should only be operated as described in the Operating Manuals. It is
also essential to comply with the legal and safety requirements for the applic-
ation concerned during use. The same applies to the use of accessories.
Each time, before commissioning the device, you must first run a project plan-
ning and risk analysis that takes into account all the safety aspects of automa-
tion 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 must establish safe operating conditions.
This can be done, for example, by mechanical interlocking, error signaling,
limit value switches, etc.
The MP85A process controller must not be connected directly to the
mains. The supply voltage must be 18 − 30 V.
General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The MP85A process controller corresponds to the state of the art and is
failsafe. The device may give rise to residual dangers if it is inappropriately
installed and operated by untrained personnel.
Any person instructed to carry out installation, commissioning, maintenance or
repair of the device must have read and understood the Operating Manual
and in particular the technical safety instructions.
