Designated use

Application and media
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 labeled accordingly on the
nameplate.
To ensure that the measuring device remains in proper condition for the operation time:
‣
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.
‣
Check the nameplate to verify if the device ordered can be put to its intended use in the
approval-related area (e.g. explosion protection, pressure vessel safety).
‣
Use the measuring device only for media against which the process-wetted materials are
adequately resistant.
‣
If the measuring device is not operated at atmospheric temperature, compliance with the
relevant basic conditions specified in the associated device documentation is absolutely
essential.
‣
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.
WARNING
L
Danger of breakage of the sensor due to corrosive or abrasive fluids or from
environmental 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.
Verification for borderline cases:
‣
For special fluids and fluids for cleaning, Endress+Hauser is glad to provide assistance in
verifying the corrosion resistance of fluid-wetted materials, but does not accept any
warranty or liability as minute changes in the temperature, concentration or level of
contamination in the process can alter the corrosion resistance properties.
Residual risks
Possible burn hazard due to fluid temperatures!
‣
For elevated fluid temperature, ensure protection against contact to prevent burns.
