2.1 Intended use
The Multichannel Calibrator model Pascal ET or Pascal ET IS gauge can be used as a calibration
instrument and also for any application which requires accuracy pressure measurement.
The Multichannel Calibrator model Pascal ET or Pascal ET/IS has been designed and built solely
for the intended use described here, and may only be used accordingly.
The technical specifications contained in these operating instructions must be observed.
Improper handling or operation of the Multichannel Calibrator model Pascal ET or Pascal ET/IS
outside of its technical specifications requires the instrument to be shut down immediately and
inspected by an authorised WIKA service engineer.
Handle electronic precision measuring instruments with the required care (protect from strong
magnetic fields, static electricity and extreme temperatures, do not insert any objects into the
instrument or its openings). Plugs and sockets must be protected from contamination.
If the Multichannel Calibrator model Pascal ET or Pascal ET/IS is transported from a cold into a
warm environment, the formation of condensation may result in the instrument malfunctioning.
Before putting it back into operation, wait for the instrument temperature and the room temperature
to equalise.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for claims of any type based on operation contrary to the
intended use.
