2.2 Intended use
The model PEW-1000 is a radio-based pressure sensor that is used for pressure measurement and transmission of
measured pressure and temperature values in general industrial applications. The pressure sensor may only be used in
such applications as are within its technical performance limits, in particular with regard to its material resistance limit,
leakage rate limits and permissible temperature and pressure limits.
It is the sole responsibility of the manufacturer or operator of a machine or plant to ensure the suitability of the pressure
sensor, and its media resistance, within the application through proper choice of materials and maintenance cycles.
→ For performance limits, see chapter 8 "Specifications"
The mounting, dismounting, installation, parameterisation and maintenance of the pressure sensor in industrial
environments absolutely requires suitably skilled personnel in accordance with chapter 2.1 "Explanation of symbols
and terms".
The instrument has been developed for use with non-hazardous media, i.e. for media of fluid group 2 in accordance
with directive 2014/68/EU article 13. The use with hazardous media (fluid group 1 in accordance with 2014/68/EU
article 13) is not allowed.
The remote monitoring of the process pressure via wireless transmission is only suitable for non-critical and
non-safety-relevant applications.
