PIZ Instruction Manual Purpose of instruction manual This instruction manual describes the features of the PIZ differential pressure transducer and provides guidelines for its use. Improper use of this instrument or failure to follow these instructions may cause injury or equipment damage. Every person who uses the device must therefore read the manual and understand the possible risks.
PIZ Instruction Manual Safety precautions 1.1 Appropriate use In addition to differential pressure data, the PIZ differential pressure transducer also records positive and negative overpressures. Always observe the operating requirements—particularly the permissible supply voltage—indicated on the rating plate and in the ”Technical data” section of this manual.
PIZ Instruction Manual The electronic components of the instrument contain environmentally hazardous materials and materials that can be reused. For this reason the instrument must be recycled in accordance with the environmental guidelines of the jurisdiction in question once it has been taken permanently out of service.
Start-up Features Although the PIZ pressure transducer is highly robust, it is nevertheless a precision instrument and should be handled with care. Avoid mounting the instrument in the direct vicinity of any sources of radiation or heat, such as heaters, as this could result in measurement errors.
