FH 8 5 0 0 Attention! This manual contains important instructions and important warnings. It is essential to read and apply it before commencing installation, connection, and commissioning work. Failure to observe these instructions and warnings may damage the flowmeter and endanger persons.
Page 5
For prolonged storage, arrangements to protect from damp may be necessary. Return Before any return, contact Faure Herman. If the flowmeter has been used with hazardous, corrosive, or toxic substances, the operator must make sure that it has been correctly rinsed, cleaned, and decontaminated before being returned to Faure Herman.
