2.1 Intended use
The LFP is designed for both continuous level measurement and point level measurement
in nearly all liquids (a list of the possible media can be found in the appendix).
The sensor is not aected by changes in the properties of the liquids to be measured.
The LFP can be used in metal containers or bypass/immersion pipes. A coaxial tube is
required for use in plastic containers.
2.2 Incorrect use
Any use outside of the stated areas, in particular use outside of the technical
specications and the requirements for intended use, will be deemed incorrect use.
If the operator wishes to use the sensor in other conditions or in dierent environ-
ments, then the manufacturing service may issue an operating license in consultation
with the customer and in exceptional cases.
2.3 Limitation of liability
Applicable standards and regulations, the latest state of technological development,
and our many years of knowledge and experience have all been taken into account
when assembling the data and information contained in these operating instructions.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by:
• Failing to observe the operating instructions
