10     Maintenance
Safety instructions
Corrective maintenance work may only be performed by 
trained personnel.
•  Before removing the device, depressurize it along with any 
adjacent lines or vessels.
•  Check whether hazardous materials have been used as 
measuring medium before opening the device. Residual 
amounts of hazardous material may still be present in the 
device and could escape when it is opened.
Within the scope of operator responsibility, check the 
following as part of a regular inspection:
•  pressure-carrying walls / pressure equipment liner
•  the measurement-related function
•  the leak tightness
•  the wear (corrosion)
WARNING
WARNING
Risk of burns due to hot measuring media
depending on the measuring medium temperature!
•  Before starting work on the device, make sure that it 
has cooled sufficiently.
Damage to components!
The electronic components of the printed circuit board 
can be damaged by static electricity (observe ESD 
guidelines).
•  Make sure that the static electricity in your body is 
discharged before touching electronic components.
CAUT ION
NOTICE
Risk of injury due to live parts!
When the housing is open, contact protection is not 
provided and EMC protection is limited.
•  Before opening the housing, switch off the power 
supply.
Loss of Ex-approval!
Loss of Ex approval due to replacement of components 
in devices for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
•  Devices for use in potentially explosive atmospheres 
may be serviced and repaired by qualified ABB 
personnel only.
•  For measuring devices for potentially explosive 
atmospheres, observe the relevant operator 
guidelines.
