Page 5: Introduction
Introduction Purpose of this documentation These instructions are a brief summary of important features, functions and safety information, and contain all information required for safe use of the device. Read the instructions carefully prior to installation and commissioning. In order to use the device correctly, first review its principle of operation. -
Page 6: Security Information
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept. Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines and networks. -
Page 7: Notes On Warranty
The sales contract contains all obligations on the part of Siemens as well as the complete and solely applicable warranty conditions. Any statements regarding device versions described in the manual do not create new warranties or modify the existing warranty. - Page 8 Introduction 1.6 About Siemens' Transducers Maximum power is radiated axially (perpendicular) from the transducer face in a line referred to as the axis of transmission. Where power is reduced by half (– 3 dB), a conical boundary defining the sound beam, centered about the axis of transmission, is established. The diametric measurement of the cone in degrees defines the beam angle.
