OPERATION

5

5.1 Start-up

Start-up is only permitted when the pressure transmitter:
• is correctly installed in the system and connected.
• has been checked for the proper state with regard to its installation and connection
requirements.
The user of the system must have it checked before start-up in compliance with the national
regulations for checks before startup.
5.2 Operation
Pressure transmitter must be operated in such a way that they remain within the maximum and
minimum permissible temperatures and pressures and the electrical limit values.
Pressure transmitter may only be operated if the equipment parts necessary for safety are
effective in the long run, and are not rendered inoperable during operation.
For more information refer to chapter "Dismantling".

5.3 Electrostatic charge

A caution label points out the safety measures that must be taken with regard to electrostatic
charges during operation.
Figure 5-1: Warning note
In order to avoid ignition hazards due to electrostatic charge, the pressure transmitter
may not be used in areas with:
• processes that generate strong charges,
• mechanical friction and cutting processes,
• spraying of electrons (e.g. in the vicinity of electrostatic painting systems).
In order to avoid ignition hazards due to electrostatic charge, the connecting cables must be
permanently laid and the pressure transmitter may not be dry cleaned.
