2.1 General

Due to the influence of the process temperature, ultrasonic flow sensors in separate version
with type designation OPTISONIC 6000 xxxxxx-Ex are not allocated to any fixed temperature
class. For the temperature classification table refer to

OPTISONIC 6000 xxxxxx-Ex

on page 12.

The temperature limits apply under the following conditions:

• The instrument is installed and operated in accordance with the installation directions given

in the quickstart and handbook.

• The instrument is not heated up by any additional heat radiation (direct solar radiation, heat

from adjacent plant parts) so causing it to operate above the permissible ambient
temperature range.

• Insulation is not hindering free ventilation of the ultrasonic signal converter housing.
