INFORMATION!
1
Maximum ambient temperature applies to aluminum converter housing. Stainless steel
version is limited to +55
°
C.
2
The ATEX-certificate KEMA 07 ATEX 0181 X (Issue no. 3) describes the maximum ambient
temperatures of transducers type G5.nn and G6.nn, which should be read as process
temperature (this is the temperature of the medium that surrounds the transducers). The
ambient temperature is the (air) temperature at the location where the meter is installed.
