2.1
Intended use
The device is intended for measuring the flow and temperature of liquid media having a minimum con-
ductivity of 20 μS/cm and a maximum viscosity of 70 mPa·s.
In order to ensure the device's perfect condition, only media may be used to which the materials in con-
tact with the media are sufficiently resistant.
The operator is responsible for compliance with the specifications indicated in the technical data (e.g.
operating and ambient temperature).
The device may only be used in a technically perfect condition, in accordance with its intended use, in a
safety-conscious and hazard-conscious manner and in compliance with the operating manual.
The following in particular are considered to be improper
•
Any structural, technical or electrical modifications to the device.
•
Use of the device outside the areas described in this operating manual.
•
Use of the device deviating from the technical data.
The manufacturer is not liable for any damage resulting from improper use.
2.2
Qualification of personnel
The personnel deployed must meet the following requirements in all phases of the product lifecycle:

Members of personnel have at least completed training in the field of plant mechanical systems for
sanitary, heating, and air-conditioning technology or have completed a degree in electrical engineer-
ing or mechanical and plant engineering.
•
Members of personnel are familiar with this documentation and the safety information and warnings
it contains.
2.3
Hot media
Hot media may result in the device surfaces becoming hot and presenting a risk of injury.
•
Allow the device and plant to cool down.
