Pressure safety
For pressure speci󹪝cations refer to the Technical data (Page59).
WARNING
Damage to operating sta󹪜
Whenever the optics housings heads are to be opened or disconnected from the process
interface or the gas tubing make sure that any overpressure in the optics housings heads is
removed prior to any work. Opening optics housings under overpressure may result in
dangerous injuries to the operator.
WARNING
Damage caused corrosive by process gas
When the optics housing purging is connected to the process purging, it may be necessary to
use non-return valves to ensure no process gas can enter the purging gas line in the event of
failure of the purging gas supply. This applies especially in the case of cascaded process and
optics housing purging where there is otherwise the danger that, for example, corrosive
process gases could enter the optics housing enclosure.
WARNING
Damaged optics
The high pressure-proof glass in the optics housings must not be subject to any mechanical
impact which might cause damage to the glass (scratch, gash etc.). Only use a soft cloth for
cleaning of the glass. Make sure that it is safe to dismount the optics housing before cleaning.
WARNING
Malfunction of sealing
Make sure all plugs and tube 󹪝ttings are sealed with the enclosed pipe thread sealant.
Instructions given on the sealant tube must be carefully followed.
Laser safety
CAUTION
Change of laser class
The analyzer is classi󹪝ed as a class 1 laser product. The emitted laser light is invisible (near
infrared) and not hazardous to the unprotected eye. The analyzer has warning labels at
