Antennas with non-conducting surfaces.
Antennas with non-conducting surfaces (e.g. rod antenna and process seal antenna) may generate
an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge under extreme conditions. Therefore, when the
antenna is used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, appropriate measures must be taken to
prevent electrostatic discharge.
Any substitution of non-authorized parts or repair, other than exchanging the complete
transmitter head or probe assembly, may jeopardize safety and is prohibited.
Unauthorized changes to the product are strictly prohibited as they may unintentionally and
unpredictably alter performance and jeopardize safety. Unauthorized changes that interfere with the
integrity of the welds or flanges, such as making additional perforations, compromise product
integrity and safety. Equipment ratings and certifications are no longer valid on any products that
have been damaged or modified without the prior written permission of Emerson™ Automation
Solutions. Any continued use of product that has been damaged or modified without prior written
authorization is at the customer's sole risk and expense.
