7.1. safety instructions
danger
risk of injury due to high pressure in the installation.
• Stop the circulation of fluid, cut off the pressure and drain the
pipe before loosening the process connections.
risk of injury due to electrical voltage.
• Shut down and isolate the electrical power source before
carrying out work on the system.
• Observe all applicable accident protection and safety regula-
tions for electrical equipment.
risk of injury due to the nature of the fluid.
• Respect the prevailing regulations on accident prevention and
safety relating to the use of aggressive fluids.
risk of injury due to high fluid temperatures.
• Use safety gloves to handle the device.
• Stop the circulation of fluid and drain the pipe before loosening
the process connections.
• Keep all easily flammable material and fluid away from the
device.
6.4. K factors (in pulse/l)
Flow rate range K factor (in pulse/l)
0,5- 50 l/h 1552
2- 100 l/h 1000
15- 500 l/h 400
If the device is combined with an instrument which does not
automatically convert the K factors, make the conversion
using one of the following formulae:
K factor in pulse/gallon US = K factor in pulse/l x 3,785 to
obtain flow rate in gallon US / time unit
K factor in pulse/gallon UK = K factor in pulse/l x 4,546 to
obtain flow rate in gallon UK / time unit.
