Operation
5.1 Starting up for the first time
To avoid injury and material damage, only operate the sensor under the following conditions:
• The equipment has to be installed and connected in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
• At the operator's request, a check was conducted prior to start-up to ensure the correct
installation and connection.
• The check prior to start-up was in compliance with the national regulations for checks before
start-up.
5.2 Operation
To avoid injury and material damage, only operate the sensor under the following conditions:
• Temperatures, pressures and electrical limit values are in the manufacturer's specified
range.
• The equipment parts necessary for safety are effective in the long run, never disable them
during operation!
• Include the sensor in the periodic pressure tests of the plant when operating with flammable
products.
5.3 Electrostatic charge
In order to avoid ignition hazards due to electrostatic charge, the sensors may not be
used in areas where:
• processes that generate strong charges,
• mechanical friction and cutting processes,
• spraying of electrons (e.g. in the vicinity of electrostatic painting systems),
• dust carried by compressed air.
INFORMATION!
Observe the information regarding calibration in the standard documentation.
CAUTION!
When using the sensor, and in particular after connecting the connector, ensure that it is
connected properly. Otherwise the degree of IP protection is not guaranteed.
