WARNINGS:
• Never attempt to loosen, remove, or disassemble process connection or instru-
ment housing while vessel contents are under pressure.
• Improper installation may result in loss of process pressure.

Pressure Equipment Directive, PED, 97/23/EC

Siemens Level Transmitters with flanged, threaded, or sanitary clamp type process mounts
have no pressure-bearing housing of their own and, therefore, do not come under the Pressure
Equipment Directive as pressure or safety accessories, (see EU Commission Guideline 1/8).

Installation
WARNINGS:
• Installation shall only be performed by qualified personnel and in accor-
dance with local governing regulations.
• Materials of construction are chosen based on their chemical compatibility (or
inertness) for general purposes. For exposure to specific environments, check
with chemical compatibility charts before installing.
• Handle the device using the enclosure, not the antenna or the device tag, to
avoid damage.
Notes:
• The Process Device Tag shall remain with the process pressure boundary assembly
the event the device package is replaced, the Process Device Tag shall be transferred to
the replacement unit.
• SITRANS LR200 units are hydrostatically tested, meeting or exceeding the requirements
of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and the European Pressure Equipment
Directive.

The process pressure boundary assembly comprises the components that act as a barrier against
pressure loss from the process vessel: that is, the combination of process connection body and emit-
ter, but normally excluding the electrical enclosure.
