Safety instructions Proline Fieldcheck
4Endress+Hauser
1 Safety instructions
1.1 Designated use
The Fieldcheck flow simulation system may only be used for the simulation of sensor signals with a
flowmeter of the Proline equipment generation from Endress+Hauser. The device is normally
installed by service technicians who are familiar with the function and operating method of the
equipment. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damages resulting from incorrect use.
#Warning!
Fieldcheck may not be used in hazardous areas without corresponding safety measures.
1.2 Operational safety
• The manufacturer reserves the right to modify technical data without prior notice. Please contact
your E+H distributor for information on modifications or updates of these Operating Instructions.
• The measuring system complies with the general safety requirements in accordance with EN
61010, the EMC requirements of EN 61326/A1 and NAMUR Recommendation NE 21.
1.3 Notes on operating Fieldcheck in an environment with
strong electromagnetic interference
1.3.1 Radiated RF noise (EN 61326-1)
To operate Fieldcheck with a Proline flowmeter in the simulation and verification mode, the
electronics and connection compartments must first be opened. In this mode, the radiated RF noise
will not exceed the industrial limits (EN 61326-1).
In a heavily disturbed (EMC) environment, you must expect that the operation of both Fieldcheck
and the flowmeter may be temporarily affected. We recommend that - when using Fieldcheck - you
take care to ensure effective ESD protection for the affected measuring point and the operator.
If necessary, the measuring equipment can be reset:
• Via the local controls
• By interrupting the voltage supply
• By restarting Fieldcheck.

1.4 Notes on safety conventions and icons
The devices are designed to meet state-of-the-art safety requirements, have been tested, and left the
factory in a condition in which they are safe to operate. The devices comply with the applicable
standards and regulations in accordance with EN 61010 “Protection Measures for Electrical
Equipment for Measurement, Control, Regulation and Laboratory Procedures”. They can, however,
be a source of danger if used incorrectly or for other than the designated use.
Consequently, always pay particular attention to the safety instructions indicated in these Operating
Instructions by the following icons:
#Warning!
“Warning” indicates an action or procedure which, if not performed correctly, can result in injury
or a safety hazard. Comply strictly with the instructions and proceed with care.
"Caution!
“Caution” indicates an action or procedure which, if not performed correctly, can result in incorrect
operation or destruction of the device. Comply strictly with the instructions.
!Note!
“Note” indicates an action or procedure which, if not performed correctly, can have an indirect
effect on operation or trigger an unexpected response on the part of the device.

#Warning!
When connecting Ex-certified devices, see the notes and diagrams in the Ex-specific supplement to
these Operating Instructions of the relevant measuring device. Fieldcheck may not be used in
hazardous areas. Please do not hesitate to contact your E+H representative if you have any
questions.
3.1 Overview
Fieldcheck is connected to the following transmitter connections:
• Via the Simubox to the transmitter amplifier
• To the transmitter service plug
• To the current or frequency output.
For correct synchronisation with the measuring device we recommend that you abide by the
following procedure.
1. Start the device to be tested.
2. First connect the cables to the flowmeter (→Page 9 to Page 14).
3. Next, connect the cables to the front of Fieldcheck (→Page 16).
!Note!
Fieldcheck does not need an external power supply during operation. Power is provided by internal
storage batteries. Make sure that the storage batteries are fully charged before beginning a
simulation.

4.3.1 FieldTool™ operating program
FieldTool™ is a universal service and configuration software package designed for the Proline
measuring devices. The connection is made with a commercial serial cable (9-pole DSUB, 0-
Modem) to the underside of Fieldcheck.
FieldTool™ offers the user the following fields of application:
• Configuring the equipment functions.
• Archiving the verification data.
• Printout of a verification certificate with all measuring results and I/O parameters.
You can find more information on FieldTool™ in the following E+H document:
