2 Basic safety instructions
2.1 Requirements for the personnel
The personnel for installation, commissioning, diagnostics and maintenance must fulfill
the following requirements:
‣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 beginning work, the specialist staff must have read and understood the
instructions in the Operating Instructions and supplementary documentation as well as
in the certificates (depending on the application)
‣Following instructions and basic conditions
The operating personnel must fulfill the following requirements:
‣Being instructed and authorized according to the requirements of the task by the
facility's owner-operator
‣Following the instructions in these Operating Instructions
2.2 Designated use
Application and media
The measuring device described in these Instructions is intended only for flow
measurement of liquids with a minimum conductivity of 5 μS/cm.
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 labeled accordingly on the
nameplate.
To ensure that the measuring device remains in proper condition for the operation time:
‣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 against which the process-wetted materials
are adequately resistant.
‣If the measuring device is not operated at atmospheric temperature, compliance with
the relevant basic conditions specified in the associated device documentation is
absolutely essential: "Documentation" section →  7.
This measuring device is optionally tested in accordance with OIML R49 and has an
EC type-examination certificate according to Measuring Instruments Directive
2004/22/EC (MID) for service subject to legal metrological control ("custody transfer")
for cold water (Annex MI‐001).
The permitted fluid temperature in these applications is 0 to 50 °C.
Incorrect use
Non-designated use can compromise safety. The manufacturer is not liable for damage
caused by improper or non-designated use.

Basic safety instructions Proline Promag W 400 HART
10 Endress+Hauser
LWARNING
Danger of breakage of the sensor due to corrosive or abrasive fluids!
‣Verify the compatibility of the process fluid with the sensor material.
‣Ensure the resistance of all fluid-wetted materials in the process.
‣Observe the specified pressure and temperature range.
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
The external surface temperature of the housing can increase by max. 10 K due to the
power consumption of the electronic components. Hot process fluids passing through the
measuring device will further increase the surface temperature of the housing. The surface
of the sensor, in particular, can reach temperatures which are close to the fluid
temperature.
Possible burn hazard due to fluid temperatures!
‣For elevated fluid temperature, ensure protection against contact to prevent burns.
2.3 Workplace safety
For work on and with the device:
‣Wear the required personal protective equipment according to federal/national
regulations.
For welding work on the piping:
‣Do not ground the welding unit via the measuring device.
If working on and with the device with wet hands:
‣It is recommended to wear gloves on account of the higher risk of electric shock.
2.4 Operational safety
Risk of injury.
‣Operate the device in proper technical condition and fail-safe condition only.
‣The operator is responsible for interference-free operation of the device.
Conversions to the device
Unauthorized modifications to the device are not permitted and can lead to unforeseeable
dangers.
‣If, despite this, modifications are required, consult with Endress+Hauser.
Repair
To ensure continued operational safety and reliability,
‣Carry out repairs on the device only if they are expressly permitted.
‣Observe federal/national regulations pertaining to repair of an electrical device.
‣Use original spare parts and accessories from Endress+Hauser only.
Environmental requirements
If a plastic transmitter housing is permanently exposed to certain steam and air mixtures,
this can damage the housing.
‣If you are unsure, please contact your Endress+Hauser Sales Center for clarification.
‣If used in an approval-related area, observe the information on the nameplate.

LWARNING
Center of gravity of the measuring device is higher than the suspension points of the
webbing slings.
Risk of injury if the measuring device slips.
‣Secure the measuring device against slipping or turning.
‣Observe the weight specified on the packaging (stick-on label).

5.2.2 Measuring devices with lifting lugs
LCAUTION
Special transportation instructions for devices with lifting lugs
‣Only use the lifting lugs fitted on the device or flanges to transport the device.
‣The device must always be secured at two lifting lugs at least.
5.2.3 Transporting with a fork lift
If transporting in wood crates, the floor structure enables the crates to be lifted lengthwise
or at both sides using a forklift.
LCAUTION
Risk of damaging the magnetic coil
‣If transporting by forklift, do not lift the sensor by the metal casing.
‣This would buckle the casing and damage the internal magnetic coils.

6.1.1 Mounting position
Mounting location
h
A0023343
Preferably install the sensor in an ascending pipe, and ensure a sufficient distance to the
next pipe elbow: h ≥ 2 × DN
To prevent measuring errors arising from accumulation of gas bubbles in the measuring
tube, avoid the following mounting locations in the pipe:
• Highest point of a pipeline.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a down pipe.
Installation in down pipes
Install a siphon with a vent valve downstream of the sensor in down pipes whose length h
≥ 5 m (16.4 ft). This precaution is to avoid low pressure and the consequent risk of
damage to the measuring tube. This measure also prevents the system losing prime.

Orientation
The direction of the arrow on the sensor nameplate helps you to install the sensor
according to the flow direction (direction of medium flow through the piping).
An optimum orientation position helps avoid gas and air accumulations and deposits in
the measuring tube.
The measuring device also offers the empty pipe detection function to detect partially filled
measuring pipes in the event of outgassing fluids or variable process pressures.

3 Reference electrode for potential equalization
• The measuring electrode plane must be horizontal. This prevents brief insulation of
the two measuring electrodes by entrained air bubbles.
• Empty pipe detection only works if the transmitter housing is pointing upwards as
otherwise there is no guarantee that the empty pipe detection function will actually
respond to a partially filled or empty measuring tube.
Inlet and outlet runs
If possible, install the sensor upstream from fittings such as valves, T-pieces or elbows.
Observe the following inlet and outlet runs to comply with accuracy specifications:
