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.
The flow computer operates on 9 - 30 Vdc. However, optional equipment may
convert power from alternating current to direct current. There are no hazardous
voltages present.
