    The TRZ04 subjects to risks in its use, which were judged by qualified staff of the company RMG. Risks may arise due to high pressures, more rarely by too low. Even work outside the permissible temperature range can lead to danger. Invalid current and voltage values can trigger explosions in hazardous areas.
