1)
Install the equipment in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, ordinances and standards. In
particular, be sure to conform to the European Standards EN 60079-14 (Explosive atmospheres – Part 14:
Electrical installations design, selection and erection), or IEC 60079-14 as applicable.
2)
Be sure to follow the installation, operating, maintenance and servicing instructions given in the manuals
supplied.
3)
The equipment shall be installed in such a way that it is protected against the entry of solid foreign objects or
water capable of impairing the safety of the apparatus. Reduce the risk of mechanical damage to a minimum.
4)
Exposure to UV radiation is not allowed!
5)
The connecting cable of the display unit must be prevented against damage and stress caused by strain.
6)
Prior to opening the equipment, disconnect the power supply or make sure that there is no potentially
explosive atmosphere or any other explosion hazard in the surrounding area!
7)
The data cable connected to the scale (weighing unit) is considered as non intrinsically safe circuit. The
connection is secured against accidental disconnection and may only be plugged in or disconnected when the
power is switched completely off. Check the correct function of the data transfer before you use the
equipment in a hazardous location. Lock the USB plug of the USB cable by the cable clamp and in case of the
option „additional power supply board" lock the plug of the DC cable by the clamping block.
8)
If the equipment does not operate properly, unplug it immediately from line power (mains supply)!
9)
All metal parts must be electrically connected to the terminal for the equipotential bonding conductor (PA).
The equipment operator is obligated to connect a lead with a gauge of at least 4 mm² (cross section) to the PA
terminal located on the housing of the scale. The low resistance of this connection to the PA bus bar must be
checked when the system is installed at the intended place of use. The shielding of the connecting cables may
only be used for grounding when no impermissible difference in voltage is generated and, if necessary, the
shielding is able to conduct the equipotential current.
10)
Avoid generating static electricity. Use only a damp cloth to wipe down the equipment. The equipment
operator shall be responsible for preventing any risks caused by static electricity.
11)
Keep chemicals and other agents, which can corrode the housing seals and cable sheaths, away from the
equipment. These agents include oil, grease, benzene, acetone and ozone. If you are not sure about the safety
of a certain substance, please contact the manufacturer.
12)
Use equipment only in the temperature ranges indicated. Avoid exposing the equipment to heat.
13)
The equipment operator is responsible for any non-Sartorius cables used.
14)
At reasonable intervals, have your equipment installation checked for proper functioning and safety by a
trained and certified technician.
15)
If your equipment needs to be repaired, use only original spare parts supplied by the manufacturer!
16)
Any tampering with the equipment by anyone, other than repair work done by authorized Sartorius service
technicians, will result in the loss of EX conformity and in the forfeiture of all claims under the manufacturer's
warranty. Only authorized specialists may open the equipment.
17)
Modifications, including those to be carried out by Sartorius employees, may be permitted only after the
express written authorization has been obtained from Sartorius.
18)
The USB port of any IECEx certified EPL Gc or ATEX Category II 3 G certified electrical equipment may be
connected to the scale (weighing unit) via a standard USB cable.
19)
The USB data cable connected to the scale (weighing unit) is considered as non intrinsically safe circuit. The
connection is secured against accidental disconnection and may only be plugged in or disconnected when the
power is switched completely off. Check the correct function of the data transfer before you use the
equipment in a hazardous location. Lock the USB plug of the USB cable at the scale (weighing unit) and any
note 18 device by a cable clamp or tool secured device.
