  • Page 4: Usage For The Intended Purpose

    The equipment must only be used within the admissible pressure and temperature ratings. Function The conductivity electrode LRG 16-9 is used in combination with the following equipment as conductivity limiter and continuous blowdown controller in steam boilers: Conductivity switch LRS 1-7...
  • Page 5: Safety Note

    Important notes - continued - Safety note The equipment must only be installed, wired and commissioned by qualified and competent staff. Retrofitting and maintenance work must only be performed by qualified staff who - through adequate training - have achieved a recognised level of competence. Danger When loosening the conductivity electrode steam or hot water might escape! This presents the risk of severe scalding all over the body!
