2 Safety instructions
2.1 Requirements for the personnel
The personnel must fulfill the following requirements for its tasks:
‣Trained, qualified specialists must have a relevant qualification for this specific function
and task.
‣Are authorized by the plant owner/operator.
‣Are familiar with federal/national regulations.
‣Before starting work, read and understand the instructions in the manual and
supplementary documentation as well as the certificates (depending on the application).
‣Follow instructions and comply with basic conditions.
2.2 Intended use
Application and media
• The measuring device described in this manual is intended only for the flow measurement
of liquids and gases.
• The measuring device described in this manual is intended only for the flow measurement
of liquids.
Depending on the version ordered, the measuring device can also measure potentially
explosive, flammable, poisonous and oxidizing media.
Measuring devices for use in hazardous areas, in hygienic applications or in applications
where there is an increased risk due to process pressure, are marked accordingly on the
nameplate.
To ensure that the measuring device remains in proper condition for the operation time:
‣Keep within the specified pressure and temperature range.
‣Only use the measuring device in full compliance with the data on the nameplate and the
general conditions listed in the Operating Instructions and supplementary documentation.
‣Based on the nameplate, check whether the ordered device is permitted for the intended
use in the hazardous area (e.g. explosion protection, pressure vessel safety).
‣Use the measuring device only for media to which the process-wetted materials are
sufficiently resistant.
‣If the ambient temperature of the measuring device is outside the atmospheric
temperature, it is absolutely essential to comply with the relevant basic conditions as
specified in the device documentation.
‣Protect the measuring device permanently against corrosion from environmental
influences.
Incorrect use
Non-designated use can compromise safety. The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused
by improper or non-designated use.

Safety instructions Flowmeter Proline 500 – digital
8 Endress+Hauser
LWARNING
Danger of breakage due to corrosive or abrasive fluids and ambient conditions!
‣Verify the compatibility of the process fluid with the sensor material.
‣Ensure the resistance of all fluid-wetted materials in the process.
‣Keep within the specified pressure and temperature range.
NOTICE
Verification for borderline cases:
‣For special fluids and fluids for cleaning, Endress+Hauser is glad to provide assistance in
verifying the corrosion resistance of fluid-wetted materials, but does not accept any
warranty or liability as minute changes in the temperature, concentration or level of
contamination in the process can alter the corrosion resistance properties.
Residual risks
LWARNING
If the temperature of the media or electronics unit is high or low, this may cause the
surfaces of the device to become hot or cold. This poses a risk of burns or frostbite!
‣In the case of hot or cold medium temperatures, install appropriate protection against
contact.
Only applies for Proline Promass A, E, F, O, X and Cubemass C
LWARNING
Danger of housing breaking due to measuring tube breakage!
If a measuring tube ruptures, the pressure inside the sensor housing will rise according to the
operating process pressure.
‣Use a rupture disk.
LWARNING
Danger from medium escaping!
For device versions with a rupture disk: medium escaping under pressure can cause injury or
material damage.
‣Take precautions to prevent injury and material damage if the rupture disk is actuated.
2.3 Workplace safety
When working on and with the device:
‣Wear the required personal protective equipment as per national regulations.
2.4 Operational safety
Risk of injury!
