Appendix 2: Safety summary
SAFETY SUMMARY
In this summary the following symbols are used:
WARNING
A WARNING denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a
procedure, practice, condition or the like, which, if not
correctly performed or adhered to, could result in injury
or death to personnel.
CAUTION
A CAUTION denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a
procedure, practice, condition or the like, which, if not
correctly performed or adhered to, could result damage
to or destruction of part or all of the product.
The personnel must understand the following general safety precautions
completely in order to be able to apply them to the use and maintenance of the
HMP260 series transmitters. Some of these warnings and cautions also appear
in other places in this operating manual but are repeated here for emphasis.
WARNING
Only the sensor head must be used in an explosive
atmosphere. Do not use the equipment in the presence
of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any
electrical instrument in such an environment constitutes
a definite safety hazard.
CAUTION
Do not modify the instrument in any way or change any
of its parts. Do not install unsuitable parts in the
instrument as this may give rise to additional hazards.
Contact Vaisala or its authorized representative for
repairs to ensure that safety is maintained.
