Important (Notice)
An additional document with Ex safety instructions is available for measuring systems that are
used in explosion hazardous areas. As a result, it is crucial that the specifications and data it
lists are also observed.

12Year of manufacture
13CE mark
14Serial number for identification by the manufacturer
15Supplementary information: EE = grounding
electrodes, TFE = partial filling electrode
16Accuracy to which the unit was calibrated (e.g., 0.2%
of rate)
17Excitation frequency of sensor coils
18Version level (xx.xx.xx)
19Label indicating whether the unit is subject to the
Pressure Equipment Directive (PED).
Information on the relevant fluid group.
Fluid group 1 = hazardous fluids, liquid, gaseous.
(Pressure Equipment Directive = PED).
If the pressure equipment is not subject to the
Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC, it is
classified in accordance with SEP (= sound
engineering practice) as per Art. 3 Para. 3 of the PED.
If no such information is present, it means that the
device does not claim to comply with the requirements
of the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC. Water
supplies and connected equipment accessories are
classed as an exception in accordance with guideline
1/16 of Art. 1 Para. 3.2 of the Pressure Equipment
Directive.
Important (Notice)
Meters with 3A approval are labeled with an additional plate.
