Potential Safety Hazards - ABB XSeriesG4 User Manual

Although "WARNING" hazards are related to personal injury and "NOTICE" hazards are associated with equipment or property
damage, it must be understood that under certain operating conditions, operating damaged equipment can result in degraded
system / process performance leading to serious or life-threatening injuries. Therefore, compliance with all "WARNING" or
"NOTICE" hazards is required at all times.
Only qualified and authorized specialists are to be employed for the assembly, electrical connection, commissioning, and
maintenance of the transmitter, since they have the appropriate experience and the necessary qualifications for such work, e.g.:
— Training, instruction, and authorization to operate and maintain devices or systems according to safety engineering
standards for electrical circuits, high pressures, and corrosive media
— Training or instruction in accordance with safety engineering standards regarding the maintenance and use of adequate
safety systems
WARNING – Bodily injury. For electrical connections, use sufficiently insulated tools, according to the EN 60900
standard.
Follow the applicable standards, regulations, and recommendations for installation, including:
— The construction and operation of electrical installations. For example, the regulation for technical working materials (safety
guidelines for tools)
— Explosion protection, if transmitters with explosion protection are installed
The device can be operated at high levels of pressure and with corrosive media. Serious injury and/or considerable material
damage can result if the transmitter is handled incorrectly. Ensure compliance with the regulations applicable in the country of
use when working with transmitters.

1.3 Potential safety hazards

Pressurized natural gas is present in the measurement pipeline. Because of this, a possibility exists for natural gas to escape
from the pipeline or tubing during installation or calibration, or following damage to the pipeline or tubing. Only properly trained
and authorized personnel should work in hazardous locations.
Totalflow equipment operates on 9 - 30 Vdc. However, optional equipment may convert power from Vac to Vdc. Follow your
company's policies and procedures when installing any electrical and/or measurement equipment.
Always wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) per your company's policies and procedures.
