Proline Prosonic Flow B 200
Incorrect use
Non-designated use can compromise safety. The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused
by improper or non-designated use.
WARNING
L
Danger of breakage of the sensor due to corrosive or abrasive fluids!
‣
Verify the compatibility of the process fluid with the sensor material.
‣
Ensure the resistance of all fluid-wetted materials in the process.
‣
Observe the specified pressure and temperature range.
Verification for borderline cases:
‣
For special fluids and fluids for cleaning, Endress+Hauser is glad to provide assistance in
verifying the corrosion resistance of fluid-wetted materials, but does not accept any
warranty or liability as minute changes in the temperature, concentration or level of
contamination in the process can alter the corrosion resistance properties.
Residual risks
The external surface temperature of the housing can increase by max. 20 K due to the power
consumption of the electronic components. Hot process fluids passing through the measuring
device will further increase the surface temperature of the housing. The surface of the sensor,
in particular, can reach temperatures which are close to the fluid temperature.
Possible burn hazard due to fluid temperatures!
‣
For elevated fluid temperature, ensure protection against contact to prevent burns.
