• Normal safety precautions must be taken to avoid the
possibility of an accident occurring when operating in
conditions of high pressure and/or temperature.
Safety advice concerning the use of the equipment
described in this publication or any relevant Material Safety
Data Sheets (where applicable) can be obtained from the
Company, together with servicing and spares information.

Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use’ and
complies with US NEC 500, NIST and OSHA.
EC Directive 89/336/EEC
Electrical – In order to meet the requirements of the EC
Directive 89/336/EEC for EMC regulations, this product must
be used in an industrial environment.
End-of-life disposal
The recorder contains a small lithium battery that
must be removed and disposed of responsibly in
accordance with local environmental regulations.
The remainder of the recorder does not contain any
substance that causes undue harm to the
environment and must be disposed of in accordance
with the Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE). It must not be disposed of in
Municipal Waste Collection.
ABB is committed to ensuring that the risk of any
environmental damage or pollution caused by any of
its products is minimized as far as possible. The
European Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) Directive that initially came into force on 13
August 2005 aims to reduce the waste arising from
electrical and electronic equipment; and improve the
environmental performance of all those involved in
the life cycle of electrical and electronic equipment.
In conformity with European local and national
regulations, electrical equipment marked with the
above symbol may not be disposed of in European
public disposal systems after 12th August 2005.
Symbols
One or more of the following symbols may appear on the
equipment labelling:
Warning – refer to the manual for instructions
Caution – risk of electric shock
Protective earth (ground) terminal
Earth (ground) terminal
Direct current supply only
Alternating current supply only
Both direct and alternating current supply
The equipment is protected through double insulation
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS)
The European Union RoHS Directive and subsequent
regulations introduced in member states and other
countries limits the use of six hazardous substances
used in the manufacturing of electrical and electronic
equipment. Currently, monitoring and control
instruments do not fall within the scope of the RoHS
Directive, however ABB has taken the decision to
adopt the recommendations in the Directive as the
target for all future product design and component
purchasing.
Cleaning
The recorder can be hosed down if it has been installed to
IP66/NEMA 4X standards. Warm water and a mild detergent
can be used.

WARNING
• The device is not fitted with a switch therefore a
disconnecting device such as a switch or circuit breaker
conforming to local safety standards must be fitted to the
final installation. It must be fitted in close proximity to
the device, within easy reach of the operator and must be
marked clearly as the disconnection for the device. A fuse
must be fitted in accordance with figure (*).
• Remove all power from the supply, relay and any powered
control circuits and high common mode voltages before
accessing or making any connections.

either IEC 60227 or IEC 60245. The terminals accept cables
from 0.8 to 2.5 mm2 (18 to 14 AWG).
• The device conforms to installation category II of IEC
61010.
• All connections to secondary circuits must have basic
insulation.
• After installation there must be no access to live parts, for
example, terminals.
• Terminals for external circuits are for use only with
equipment with no accessible live parts.
• If the indicator is used in a manner not specified by the
company, the protection provided by the equipment may
be impaired.
• All equipment connected to the device’s terminals
must comply with local safety standards (IEC 60950,
