1.3 General safety considerations
The process medium may be hot or otherwise hazardous. Use shields and protective clothing adequate for
the process medium - do not rely on avoidance of contact with the process medium.
Precautions when removing the sensor from the process line:
•
Make positively sure that the process line is not under pressure. Open a vent valve to the atmosphere.
•
For a prism wash system, close a hand valve for the wash medium and disable the wash valve.
•
Loosen the clamp cautiously, be prepared to tighten again.
•
Be out of the way of any possible splash and ensure the possibility of escape.
•
After removal of the sensor, it may be necessary to mount a blind cover for security reasons.
