  • Page 3: Note

    By usage in machines, the measuring unit should be used only then when the machines fulfil the EWG-machine guide lines. PED 97/23/EG for KAL-11.. and KAL-12.. In acc. with Article 3 Paragraph (3), "Sound Engineering Practice", of the PED 97/23/EC no CE mark.
  • Page 4: Regulated Use

    4. Regulated Use The KAL is to be installed only in the specified applications. Every usage which exceeds the specifications is considered to be non-specified. Any damages resulting therefrom are not the responsibility of the manufacturer. The user assumes all risk for such usage. The application specifications include the installation, start-up and service requirements specified by the manufacturer.

    • Ensure that the permitted maximum operating pressure and temperatures for the device are not being exceeded. (See point 13 Technical Information) Installation: Mount the sensor in the pipe (KAL-1...)- in a sleeve welded to the pipe (KAL-2...). Fitting position: The function of the sensor is not dependent on their fitting position, provided that the pipe is completely filled with flow medium.
