2For your safety
2.1Authorised personnel
All operations described in this operating instructions manual must be
carried out only by trained specialist personnel authorised by the plant
operator.
During work on and with the device the required personal protective
equipment must always be worn.
2.2Appropriate use
VEGADIF 65 is a differential pressure transmitter for measurement of
flow,level,differential pressure,density and interface.
You can find detailed information on the application range in chapter
"Product description".
Operational reliability is ensured only if the instrument is properly used
according to the specifications in the operating instructions manual as
well as possible supplementary instructions.
For safety and warranty reasons,any invasive work on the device
beyond that described in the operating instructions manual may be
carried out only by personnel authorised by the manufacturer.Arbitrary
conversions or modifications are explicitly forbidden.
2.3Warning about misuse
Inappropriate or incorrect use of the instrument can give rise to
application-specific hazards,e.g.vessel overfill or damage to system
components through incorrect mounting or adjustment.
2.4General safety instructions
This is a high-tech instrument requiring the strict observance of
standard regulations and guidelines.The user must take note of the
safety instructions in this operating instructions manual,the country-
specific installation standards as well as all prevailing safety
regulations and accident prevention rules.
The instrument must only be operated in a technically flawless and
reliable condition.The operator is responsible for trouble-free
operation of the instrument.
During the entire duration of use,the user is obliged to determine the
compliance of the required occupational safety measures with the
current valid rules and regulations and also take note of new
regulations.

2.5Safety label on the instrument
The safety approval markings and safety tips on the device must be
observed.
2.6CE conformity
This device fulfills the legal requirements of the applicable EC
guidelines.By attaching the CE mark,VEGA provides a confirmation
of successful testing.You can find the CE conformity declaration in the
download area of www.vega.com.
2.7Fulfillment of NAMUR recommendations
With respect to compatibility,the NAMUR recommendation NE 53 is
fulfilled.This applies also to the corresponding indicating and
adjustment components.VEGA instruments are generally upward and
downward compatible.
lSensor software to DTM VEGADIF 65
lDTM VEGADIF 65 for adjustment software PACTware
lIndicating and adjustment module for sensor software
The parameter adjustment of the basic sensor functions is independ-
ent of the software version.The range of available functions depends
on the respective software version of the individual components.
2.8Safety instructions for Ex areas
Please note the Ex-specific safety information for installation and
operation in Ex areas.These safety instructions are part of the
operating instructions manual and come with the Ex-approved
instruments.
2.9Safety instructions for oxygen applications
For instruments in oxygen applications the special instructions in
chapters "Storage and transport","Mounting"as well as "Technical
data"under "Process conditions"must be noted.Furthermore the valid
national regulations,implementation instructions and memorandums
of the BG (professional assoc.) must be noted.
2.10 Environmental instructions
Protection of the environment is one of our most important duties.That
is why we have introduced an environment management system with
the goal of continuously improving company environmental protection.
The environment management system is certified according to DIN
EN ISO 14001.
Please help us fulfil this obligation by observing the environmental
instructions in this manual:
