Page 5: Safety Notes
Hydrocont K Safety notes Each person that is engaged with inauguration and operation of this device, must have read and understood this technical manual and especially the safety notes. Installation, electrical connection, inauguration and operation of the device must be made by a qualified employee according to the informations in this technical manual and the relevant standards and rules. -
Page 6: Installation
Hydrocont K Installation The installation of the device at locations where high pressure blows can occur should be avoided. The installation of the device should be made if possible at temperature calmed places to get a reliable measuring result. Large temperature steps, e.g. at filling of a hot medium into a cold system, can produce a short-time higher measuring signal deviation at the variants with ceramic measuring membrane. -
Page 7: Electrical Connection
Hydrocont K Electrical connection The electrical connection of the device must be carried out according to the respective country specific standards. Incorrect installation or adjustment could cause applicationally conditioned risks. Use only twisted shielded signal and measurement wires and install these wires separated from power leading wires. -
