1.3 Operational safety
Note the following points:
• Measuring systems for use in hazardous environments are accompanied by separate
"Ex documentation", which is an integral part of these Operating Instructions. Strict compliance
with the installation instructions and ratings as stated in this supplementary documentation is
mandatory. The symbol on the front of this supplementary Ex documentation indicates the
approval and the certification body (e.g. 0 Europe, 2 USA, 1 Canada).
• The measuring device meets the general safety requirements according to EN 61010-1 and the
EMC requirements according to IEC/EN 61326 in addition to the NAMUR recommendations
NE 21, NE 43 and NE 53.
• Depending on the application, the seals of the process connections of the Promag H sensor require
periodic replacement.
• Due to the power turnover in the electronic components, the heating of the outer housing
surfaces is max. 10 K. When hot media are passed through the measuring tube, the surface
temperature of the housing increases. With regard to the sensor, in particular, you should expect
temperatures that can be close to the temperature of the medium. If the temperature of the
medium is high, ensure staff are protected against burns and scalds.
• The manufacturer reserves the right to modify technical data without prior notice. Your
Endress+Hauser distributor will supply you with current information and updates to these
Operating Instructions.
1.4 Return
• Do not return a measuring device if you are not absolutely certain that all traces of hazardous
substances have been removed, e.g. substances which have penetrated crevices or diffused
through plastic.
• Costs incurred for waste disposal and injury (burns, etc.) due to inadequate cleaning will be
charged to the owner-operator.
