3.4 General safety instructions

Only use the diaphragm seal system in applications that lie within its technical performance
limits. This applies in particular with regard to its material resistance and leak rate limits, and
also its permissible temperature and pressure limits.
→ For performance limits see "Specifications" of the components. See data sheets at www.
wika.de
It is the sole responsibility of the manufacturer or operator of a machine or plant to ensure
the suitability of the diaphragm seal system, and its media resistance, within the application
through proper choice of materials and maintenance cycles.
Non-observance can result in serious injury and/or damage to the equipment.
Should the operating instructions not be observed or complied with, approvals (e.g. EHEDG)
can become invalid.
Improper selection of the system fill fluid (e.g. painting or oxygen applications) can lead to
serious personal injury and/or damage to property and invalidate the operating licence of the
plant.
The instruments should be protected against coarse dirt and wide fluctuations in ambient
temperature.
Further important safety instructions can be found in the individual chapters of
these operating instructions.
