1.2 For your safety
1.2.1 Intended use of the device
The measuring system FLOWSIC600-XT is used for measuring the actual volumetric flow
rate of gases transported in pipelines. Apart from that, the FLOWSIC600-XT can also deter-
mine the actual corrected volume and the sound velocity.
The measuring system shall only be used as specified by the manufacturer and as set forth
below. Special attention must be paid that:
● Usage is compliant with the technical data, specifications on allowable use as well as
the requirements for assembly and connection, and ambient and operating conditions
(to be found in the order documents, on the type plate and in approval documents, and
the Operating Instructions).
● All measures required for value conservation, e.g. for maintenance and inspection,
and/or transport and storage, are observed.
● The device is not subjected to any unallowed mechanical stress, e.g. through pig clean-
ing.
1.2.2 Authorized personnel
Persons responsible for safety must ensure the following:
● Any work on the measuring system may only be carried out by qualified persons and be
approved by responsible skilled persons.
● Qualified persons are those who, based on their training, experience or instruction as
well as their knowledge of relevant standards, regulations, accident prevention rules
and plant conditions, and authorized by those responsible for persons and plants to
carry out such work. It is decisive that these persons can recognize and avoid any possi-
ble hazards in good time. Skilled persons are persons in accordance with
DIN VDE 0105 or IEC 364, or directly comparable standards.
● These persons must have and demonstrate exact knowledge on hazards arising from
operation, e.g. through hot, toxic, explosive gases or gases under pressure, gas-liquid
mixtures or other media as well as adequate knowledge of the measuring system
gained through training.
● It is important that, during all work on the measuring system, the persons have received
training by “SICK Engineering GmbH”.
● In hazardous areas with potentially explosive atmospheres, wiring and installation shall
only be carried out by staff trained according to EN60079-14 and according to national
regulations.
