WARNING!
Physical injuries and damage to property and the
environment caused by hazardous media
Upon contact with hazardous media (e.g. with flammable
or toxic substances), harmful media (e.g. corrosive, toxic,
carcinogenic, radioactive), there is a danger of physical
injuries and damage to property and the environment.
Hazardous media with extremely high temperature and
under high pressure may be present at the instrument.
▶
For these media, in addition to all standard regula-
tions, the appropriate existing codes or regulations
must also be followed.
▶
Wear the requisite protective equipment (see chapter
3.5 "Personal protective equipment")
WARNING!
Physical injuries and damage to property and the
environment caused by media escaping under high
pressure
With the pressurisation of the instrument, as a result of
poor sealing of the process connection, media under
high pressure can escape.
Due to the high energy of the media that can escape in
the event of a failure, the possibility of physical injuries
and damage to property exists.
▶
The sealing of the process connection must be
carried out expertly and checked for leak tightness.
