• ᜸ symbol indicates caution due to special circumstances in which hazards may occur.
᜸ Warning
Failure to follow instructions may result in serious injury or death.
01. Fail-safe device must be installed when using the unit with machinery that
may cause serious injury or substantial economic loss. (e.g. nuclear power
control, medical equipment, ships, vehicles, railways, aircraft, combustion
apparatus, safety equipment, crime/disaster prevention devices, etc.)
Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury, economic loss or fire.
02. Do not use the unit in the place where flammable/explosive/corrosive gas,
high humidity, direct sunlight, radiant heat, vibration, impact or salinity
may be present.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in explosion or fire.
03. Install on a device panel or to a pressure port directly to use.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire.
04. Do not connect, repair, or inspect the unit while connected to a power
source.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire.
05. Check 'Connections' before wiring.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire.
06. Do not disassemble or modify the unit.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire or electric shock.
᜸ Caution
Failure to follow instructions may result in injury or product damage.
01. Use the unit within the rated specifications.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire or product damage.
02. Use a dry cloth to clean the unit, and do not use water or organic solvent.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire.
03. This product is designed to detect the pressure of noncorrosive gas. Do not
use for corrosive gas.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in product damage.
04. Keep the product away from metal chip, dust, and wire residue which flow
into the unit.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in fire or product damage.
05. In case of reducer pressure port model, do not allow rotation, twist, pull,
moment load, vibration, impact, etc. to be applied to the one-touch fitting
after coupling.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in pressure port damage or poor
tightening.
06. In case of M3 screw pressure port model, make sure the O-Ring is inserted
before installation. After fastening the product by hand, use a spanner (8
mm wide) to secure it within 90º.
If great force is applied when tightening, the pressure sensor may be damaged.
If it is not fully tightened, pressure leakage may occur.
