Also, when operating the variable area flowmeter outside of the hazardous area, the connection must be made to intrinsically safe circuits. When connecting to non-intrinsically safe circuits, there is a risk of damage to the safety- defining components. 05/2019 - 4000430905 - AD DK46-800 Exi-II2G R06 en www.krohne.com...
Variable area flowmeters with titanium components are NOT NOT suitable for use in explosion- protected areas in conjunction with oxygen applications (products with an oxygen content which is significantly above the oxygen content in the earth's atmosphere)! www.krohne.com 05/2019 - 4000430905 - AD DK46-800 Exi-II2G R06 en...
To avoid electrostatic charging, connect the variable area flowmeters to the equipotential bonding system of the hazardous area. Observe additional information regarding electrostatics. For further information refer to Electrostatic charge on page 15. 05/2019 - 4000430905 - AD DK46-800 Exi-II2G R06 en www.krohne.com...
The terminal assignment of the built-in electrical equipment is described in the standard documentation. The signal circuits of the variable area flowmeters may only be connected to certified intrinsically safe slave units or circuits. For more information refer to chapter "Electrical data". www.krohne.com 05/2019 - 4000430905 - AD DK46-800 Exi-II2G R06 en...
This connection only ensures electrostatic grounding of the device and does not meet the requirements for equipotential bonding. Figure 4-1: Position of the ground terminal 05/2019 - 4000430905 - AD DK46-800 Exi-II2G R06 en www.krohne.com...
Avoid pinching or damaging the wire line of the limit switches when setting the switches and closing the cover. It should be laid in the grooves of the back rail. In case of damage, the variable area flowmeter must be replaced! www.krohne.com 05/2019 - 4000430905 - AD DK46-800 Exi-II2G R06 en...
• spraying of electrons (e.g. in the vicinity of electrostatic painting systems) or • pneumatically conveyed dust is exposed. WARNING! Electrostatic charging of the housing surface by friction must be avoided. The devices must not be dry cleaned. 05/2019 - 4000430905 - AD DK46-800 Exi-II2G R06 en www.krohne.com...
