CAUTION
Follow these rules if welding is done on the vessel after installation of Kistler-Morse sensors/
transducers. The electrical current of the welder may pass through the sensor/transducer, causing
damage to it, and possibly to the signal processor. To avoid damage, follow these precautions.
1. Disconnect the sensor/transducer cables from the signal processor.
2. Ground the welder as close to the welding joint as possible.
3. Always ground the welder so that the welding current does not go through the sensor/transducer.
Note
High temperatures can damage sensors/transducers. If you are welding in the vicinity of a
sensor/transducer, monitor the temperature of the metal adjacent to the sensor/transducer. If
it becomes too hot to touch, stop welding immediately, and remove the sensor/transducer
before continuing. Prior to reinstalling the sensor/transducer, verify that no damage has
occurred.
