1.3 Potential safety hazards

1.3.1 Aztec ATS430 sensor – electrical
The sensor operates on 24 V DC.
There are no hazardous voltages present in the sensor.
1.3.2 Aztec ATS430 sensor –
formazin used to calibrate the sensor
Sensor calibration (see Section 6.3.1, page 13) may require the
use of formazin.
DANGER – Formazin
Formazin is a polymerisation of 2 hazardous
constituents. Please conduct a full risk assessment
based on the supplier's safety datasheet for formazin
before use.

1.4 Safety standards

This product has been designed to satisfy the requirements of
IEC61010-1:2010 3rd edition 'Safety Requirements for Electrical
Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use' and
complies with US NEC 500, NIST and OSHA.

1.5 Product symbols

Symbols that may appear on this product are shown below:
Direct current supply only.
This symbol identifies a risk of chemical harm and
indicates that only individuals qualified and trained
to work with chemicals should handle chemicals or
perform maintenance on chemical delivery systems
associated with the equipment.
This symbol indicates the need for protective eye
wear.
This symbol indicates the need for protective hand
wear.

WEEE directive.

1.6 Product recycling and disposal (Europe only)

Electrical equipment marked with this symbol may not
be disposed of in European public disposal systems
after 12 August 2005. To conform to European local and
national regulations (EU Directive 2002/96/EC),
European electrical equipment users must now return

1.7 Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)

The European Union RoHS Directive and subsequent
regulations introduced in member states and other
countries limits the use of six hazardous substances
used in the manufacturing of electrical and electronic
equipment. Currently, monitoring and control monitors
do not fall within the scope of the RoHS Directive,
however ABB has taken the decision to adopt the
recommendations in the Directive as the target for all
future product design and component purchasing.
