Operation of the signal converter

The i-EEx compact flowmeters are always equipped with magnet sensors. In that way it is
possible to change the settings of the converter with aid of the magnet-bar without the necessity to
open the flameproof converter housing in the hazardous area.

For the program functions and settings of the converter the standard Installation and operating
instructions have to be consulted. It must be noted that - depending on the IFC090 i-EEx version
installed - not all output/input functions are available.

Following menus do not apply for the IFC090 i-EEx versions Ex-i2 and Ex-i3:
(see also Sect. 4.4. "Table of settable functions" in the standard "Installation and operating
instructions" of the IFC090 K/F signal converter)

Maintenance

The IFM x080 K/…-EEx electromagnetic compact flowmeters are maintenance free with regard to
the flowmetering properties. Within the scope of the periodical inspections, which are required for
electrical apparatus that are installed and used in hazardous classified locations, it is
recommended to check the flameproof enclosure on signs of damage or corrosion. This concerns
the converter housing.
