2. Safety

2.4 Special hazards

WARNING!

Observe the information given in the applicable type examination certifi-

cate and the relevant country-specific regulations for installation and use

in hazardous areas (e.g. IEC 60079-14, NEC, CEC). Non-observance can

result in serious injury and/or damage to equipment.

For additional important safety instructions for instruments with ATEX

approval see chapter 2.3 "Additional safety instructions for instruments per

ATEX".

WARNING!

Only connect or disconnect the CPG1000 once the system has been

depressurised!

Observe the working conditions in accordance with chapter 3 "Specifi-

cations".

Always operate the pressure indicator within its overpressure limits.

For hazardous media such as oxygen, acetylene, flammable or toxic

gases or liquids, and refrigeration plants, compressors, etc., in addition

to all standard regulations, the appropriate existing codes or regulations

must also be followed.

If it is obvious that safe operation of the instrument is no longer possi-

ble, the instrument must be put out of operation and marked in order to

secure it against inadvertent use.

The circuitry for connection to other devices should be designed with

particular care. Under certain circumstances internal junctions in exter-

nal devices (e.g. GND junctions with screen) could lead to impermissi-

ble voltage potentials that could impair the function of the device itself or

a device connected to it, or even destroy them.

The measurement signal of the reference (or test sample) can be influ-

enced by massive electromagnetic irradiation and/or the indication of

the signal could be completely absent.

If the CPG1000 is used in applications with oil as a pressure medium,

make sure it will not be used with flammable material or gases directly

afterwards since it can lead to dangerous explosions and danger to

personnel and machinery.

Residual media in the dismounted instrument can result in a risk to

persons, the environment and the equipment. Take sufficient precaution-

ary measures.
