2. Safety
WARNING!
Before installation, commissioning and operation, ensure that
the appropriate inductive contact has been selected in terms of
design and specific measuring conditions.
Non-observance can result in serious injury and/or damage to
equipment.
Only work on the instrument with the voltage disconnected.
Further important safety instructions can be found in the indi-
vidual chapters of these operating instructions.
2.1 Intended use
Inductive contacts are installed in pressure and temperature measuring
instruments. The instrument pointer of the measuring instrument moves the flag
of the inductive contact out of or into the slot sensor. The resulting change of the
current supply is used for triggering a switching amplifier.
The inductive contact has been designed and built solely for the intended use
described here and may only be used accordingly.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for claims of any type based on operation
contrary to the intended use.
