DANGER
!
Risk of electric shock.
Î Before connecting wiring, performing any work on the device or opening the de-
vice, disconnect the supply voltage and protect it against unintentional reconnec-
tion.
Î Only use power interruption devices that are protected against unintentional recon-
nection of the supply voltage.
Î Do not remove any covers to perform adjustment work on live parts.
Î Do not open the back housing cover.
The electric actuators with process controllers are protected against spray water
(IP 54).
Î Avoid jets of water.
The switching output L' might be live after the supply voltage has been connected.
Î Do not touch the switching output L'.
Î When the switching output is not used, deactivate it in function M4 ('None' setting).
Risk of bursting in pressure equipment.
Control valves and pipelines are pressure equipment. Improper opening can lead to
valve components bursting.
Î Before starting any work on the control valve, depressurize all plant sections con-
cerned and the valve.
Î Drain the process medium from all the plant sections concerned as well as the
