Notes on safety

Appropriate use
The T10F Torque Flange may be used for torque-measurement and directly
related control and regulation tasks, only. Any other use is not appropriate.
To ensure safe operation, the transducer may only be used according to the
specifications given in this manual. When using the transducer, the legal and
safety regulations for the respective application must also be observed. The
same applies if accessories are used.
The transducer is no safety element in the sense of appropriate use.
Prerequisites for correct and safe transducer operation are appropriate
transportation, storage, installation and mounting, and careful operation.
General dangers in the case of non-observance of the safety
instructions
The transducer complies with the state of the art and is operationally reliable.
If the transducer is used and operated inappropriately by untrained personnel,
residual dangers might develop.
Any person charged with transducer installation, operation, maintenance or
repair must in any case have read and understood the operating manual and
the notes on safety, in particular.
Residual dangers
The transducer's scope of performance and supply covers a part of the torque
measuring-technology, only. The plant designer/constructor/operator must in
addition design, realise and take responsibility for the torque
measuring-system's safety such that potential residual dangers are
minimized. The respective regulations must in any case be observed.
Residual dangers regarding the torque measuring-system must be specified
explicitly.
