2.3 Safety instructions for pressure gauges per ATEX
WARNING!
Non-observance of these instructions and their contents may result
in the loss of explosion protection.
WARNING!
It is imperative that the application conditions and safety require-
ments of the operating instructions are followed.
▶
Instruments must be grounded via the process connection.
Permissible ambient temperature
-20 ... +60 °C
-40 ... +60 °C (optional, only silicone oil lling)
-70 ... +60 °C (optional, for model 733.51 low-temperature version)
Attention! With gaseous media, the temperature may increase as a result of
compression warming. In these cases it may be necessary to throttle the rate of
change of pressure or reduce the permissible medium temperature.
Permissible medium temperature
≤ 100 °C
≤ 150 °C (option)
≤ 200 °C (option)
The permissible medium temperature does not only depend on the instrument
design, but also on the ignition temperature of the surrounding gases, vapours or
dusts. Both aspects have to be taken into account.
