Sensor Band
13.3.1
Damaged Sensor Bands
The sensor band should be removed from service and taken out of the

is disconnected from a power source. The damaged sensor band
should not be handled in or transported through any areas where
explosive gas mixtures may be present.

Undamaged Sensor Bands
Handle the band carefully to avoid damaging it (no sharp bend radii
and avoid actively flexing it or allowing it to be bumped during
transport). If there is any doubt about whether the sensor band might
be damaged, follow the handling and transport procedures for
damaged sensor bands, above. The original packing foam mandrel
packing material should be used for storage. Do not store the sensor
band in a hazardous area.
