Safety Information
General Instructions
To ensure safe operation, the device should only be operated according to the specifications
in the instruction manual. The requisite Health & Safety regulations for a given application
must also be observed. This statement also applies to the use of accessories.
Every person who is commissioned with the initiation or operation of this device must have
read and understood the operating instructions and in particular the safety instructions!
The work safety instructions in this manual as well as the safety, accident prevention and
environmental protection regulations generally valid for the work area must be observed.
The liability of the manufacturer expires in the event of damage due to improper use, non-ob-
servance of this operating manual, use of insufficiently qualified personnel and unauthorized
modification of the device.
Proper Usage
Series DS10 float-type flow meters are designed to monitor continuous flow rates of liquids or
gases which do not attack the device materials. All other usage is regarded as being im-
proper and outside the scope of the device.
Unless indicated otherwise, the scales on these devices are based on air at 1.2 bar absolute
pressure at 20°C or on water. Special applications in which shock-type loads are en-
countered (e.g. cyclic operation) should first be discussed with and examined by our engin-
eering department.
The series DS10 flow meter devices should not be deployed as the sole agents to prevent
dangerous conditions occurring in plant or machinery. Machinery and plant need to be de-
signed in such a manner that faulty conditions and malfuctions do not arise that could pose a
safety risk for operators.
Dangerous substances
For dangerous media such as e.g. Oxygen, Acetylene, flammable or toxic substances as well
as refrigeration systems, compressors, etc. must comply with the relevant regulations beyond
the general rules.
