    The documentation has been filed with TÜV-Nord-Cert NB 0044 (see declaration of conformity). Labeling: 3.2 P5500/P6500 I#### with inductive proximity switches SJ2-N Area of use: Explosion risk areas Zone 1 and 2, and 21 and 22, risk from gases and dry dust.

  • Page 7: Technical Data

    Warning! With gaseous media, the device temperature may increase due to compression heat. In such cases, the rate of the pressure change must be regulated or the permitted temperature of the measuring medium reduced. Note: For a change in differential pressure between 10 % and 90 % of the measuring range and a pulse frequency of < 0.06 Hz, the temperature increase is <10 K.
