  • Page 8: Main Hazards

    Main hazards 1. 1 Hazards through electrical equipment 1.1.1 The VICOTEC450 measuring system is operational equipment for use in industrial high voltage plants. WARNING: Danger through mains voltage  Disconnect mains lines before working on mains connections or parts carrying mains voltage.

  • Page 9: Responsibility Of User

    1.3.1 Designated users The VICOTEC450 measuring system may only be operated by skilled technicians who, based on their technical training and knowledge as well as knowledge of the relevant regulations, can assess the tasks given and recognize the hazards involved.

  • Page 10: Using The Vicotec450 For Safety-Critical Measuring Tasks

    ● Plants with safety risks must always be redundantly monitored by suitable metrological equipment. Therefore the VICOTEC450 may not be used as the only link in a safety chain. ● The operator is always responsible for any switching thresholds or definition of switch- ing criteria.
