WARNINGS
Explosions could result in death or serious injury:
Installation of this transmitter in an explosive environment must be in accordance with
the appropriate local, national, and international standards, codes, and practices.
Please review the approvals section of the reference manual for any restrictions
associated with a safe installation.
• Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, ensure
the instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or
non-incendive field wiring practices.
• In an Explosion-Proof/Flameproof installation, do not remove the transmitter
covers when power is applied to the unit.
Process leaks may cause harm or result in death.
• Install and tighten process connectors before applying pressure.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury.
• Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present
on leads can cause electrical shock.
