2.2 Intended use
Application and media
The device described in this manual is intended for the continuous moisture measurement of
a wide variety of materials. Because of its operating frequency of approx. 1 GHz the device can
also be used outside of closed metal vessels.
If operated outside of closed vessels, the device must be mounted in accordance with the
instructions in the Mounting section. The operation of the devices does not present any
health risk. If the limit values specified in the Technical data and the conditions listed in the
instructions and additional documentation are observed, the measuring device may be used
for the following measurements only:
• Measured process variables: material moisture, material conductivity and material
temperature
To ensure that the device remains in proper condition throughout the operating period:
‣Use the device only for media to which the process-wetted materials are sufficiently
resistant.
‣Observe the limit values in the "Technical data".
Incorrect use
The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-intended use.
Clarification of borderline cases:
‣With regard to special fluids and media used for cleaning, the manufacturer is glad to
assist in clarifying the corrosion resistance of materials in contact with the fluid, but does
not accept any warranty or liability.
Residual risks
Due to the transfer of heat from the process and power dissipation within the electronics, the
temperature of the electronics housing and the assemblies contained therein may increase to
up to 70 °C (158 °F) during operation. The device may reach a temperature close to the
medium temperature during operation.
Danger of burns from contact with surfaces!
‣In the event of high medium temperatures, 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.
2.4 Operational safety
Risk of injury!
‣Operate the device only if it is in proper technical condition, free from errors and faults.
‣The operator is responsible for interference-free operation of the device.

Hazardous area
To eliminate the risk of danger to persons or the facility when the device is used in the
approval-related area (e.g. explosion protection, pressure equipment safety):
‣Check the nameplate to verify if the device ordered can be put to its intended use in the
approval-related area.
‣Observe the specifications in the separate supplementary documentation that is an integral
part of this manual.
2.5 Product safety
This device is designed in accordance with good engineering practice to meet state-of-the-art
safety requirements, has been tested, and left the factory in a condition in which it is safe to
operate.
It meets the general safety standards and legal requirements. It also complies with the EU
directives listed in the device-specific EU Declaration of Conformity. The manufacturer
confirms this by affixing the CE mark to the device.

4.1 Incoming acceptance
Check the following during incoming acceptance:
 Are the order codes on the delivery note and the product sticker identical?
 Are the goods undamaged?
 Do the nameplate data match the ordering information on the delivery note?
 If required (see nameplate): Are the safety instructions (XA) provided?
If one of these conditions is not met, please contact the manufacturer's sales office.

4.4 Storage, transport
4.4.1 Storage conditions
• Permitted storage temperature: –40 to +70 °C (–40 to +158 °F)
• Use original packaging.
4.4.2 Transporting the product to the measuring point
Transport the device to the measuring point in the original packaging.
5 Mounting
5.1 Mounting requirements
• The device must be installed at a point in the process in such a way that ensures a constant
bulk density, as the bulk density directly affects the calculation of the water content. Where
necessary, a bypass should be created or structural measures may be needed at the place of
installation to ensure that the material flow, and therefore the bulk density, over the
measurement surface is constant.
• The measuring field of the device must be completely covered by material and the material
height must exceed the minimum layer of material covering on the measurement surface
(depends on the device type and moisture).
• The flow of material over the measurement surface must be continuous. With the software,
it is possible to automatically detect and bridge gaps in material flow in intervals of seconds.
• No material deposits or buildup may form on the measuring cell surface, as this would
falsify the readings.
Longer averaging times increase the stability of the measured value.
5.2 Mounting the device
The device can be installed with four screws (M5).
An appropriate cutout must be created at the place of installation for the measuring cell and
bores to secure it.
