Notes on safety
The Barcon is a pressure transmitter for measuring gauge or absolute pressure
depending on the version.
The Barcon has been designed to operate safely in accordance with current technical,
safety and EU standards. If installed incorrectly or used for applications for which it is
not intended, however, it is possible that application-related dangers may arise, e. g.
product overspill by incorrect installation or adjustment. For this reason, the instrument
must be installed, connected, operated and maintained by personnel that are authorised
by the user of the facility and who are suitably qualified. The manual is to be read and
understood, and the instructions followed. Modifications and repairs to the device are
permissible only when they are expressly approved in the manual.
The measuring system used in the explosion-hazardous area must comply with all
existing national standards. The instrument can be supplied with the following
certificates as listed in the table. The certificates are designated by the last letters of the
order code on the nameplate (see table below).
Ensure that technical personnel are sufficiently trained.
All measurement and safety regulations which apply to the measuring points are to be
observed.
