SAFETY MESSAGES Procedures and instructions in this section may require special precautions to
ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Information that
raises potential safety issues is indicated by a warning symbol (
). Please
refer to the following safety messages before performing an operation
preceded by this symbol.
Failure to follow safe installation and servicing guidelines could result in death or
serious injury:
Make sure only qualified personnel perform the installation.
Use the equipment only as specified in this manual. Failure to do so may impair the
protection provided by the equipment.
Do not perform any services other than those contained in this manual unless you are
qualified.
Process leaks could result in death or serious injury.
Make sure that the transmitter is handled carefully. If the Process Seal is damaged, gas
might escape from the tank if the transmitter head is removed from the probe.
High voltage that may be present on leads could cause electrical shock:
Probes covered with plastic and/or with plastic discs may generate an ignition-capable
level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions. Therefore, when the
probe is used in a potentially explosive atmosphere, appropriate measures must be
taken to prevent electrostatic discharge.
