• The responsibility whether the measurement devices are suitable for the
respective application lies with the operator. The manufacturer assumes no
liability for consequences of misuse by the operator. Improper installation and
use of the devices result in a loss of the warranty claims.
WARNING
Personal injury can occur if the unit and connections become hot or media
underpressure(upto15bar)orhotmedia(upto180°C)leak.
►Install the unit according to the applicable rules and regulations.
►Ensure that the system is free of pressure during installation.
► Ensurethatnomediacanleakatthemountinglocationduringinstallation.
► Equiptheunitwithsuitableprotection(e.g.cover)toavoidhazardtoperson-
nelfromtouchingthesensor,connectionsandcablesorfromleakingmedia.
3 Functions and features
Theunitmonitorsliquids(water,glycolsolutions).
It detects the flow quantity on the principle of differential pressure and converts it
intoananalogueoutputsignal(4...20mA).

Theanaloguesignalforwater(20°C)islinearfrom4mA(=noflow)to20mA
(=finalvalueofthemeasuringrange,seeTechnicalData).
For an output signal > 20 mA the flow quantity is above the final value of the
measuring range.
