2.2
Intended use
METTLER TOLEDO InPro 86X0 i e Series sensors are intended solely for the measurement in liquids
in industrial applications.
Other prerequisites for appropriate use include:
– compliance with the instructions, notes and requirements set out in this instruction manual
– acceptance of responsibility for regular inspection, maintenance and functional testing of all
associated components, also including compliance with local operational and plant safety
regulations
– compliance with all information and warnings given in the documentation relating to the
products used in conjunction with the sensor (housings, transmitters, etc.).
– observance of all safety regulations governing the equipment in which the sensor is installed
– correct equipment operation in conformance with the prescribed environmental and opera-
tional conditions, and admissible installation positions
– observance of local legislation
– consultation with METTLER TOLEDO Process Analytics in the event of any uncertainties.
2.3
Inappropriate use
Any utilization other than the above mentioned, as well as any utilization with the technical data,
is taken as being not in conformance with the regulations. The operator bears the sole risk for any
damage caused by such utilization.
2.4
Basic principles
– The sensors and associated components have no effect on the process itself and cannot
influence it in the sense of any form of control system.
– Maintenance and service intervals and schedules depend on the application conditions,
composition of the sample media, plant equipment and significance of the safety control
features of the measuring system. Processes vary considerably, so that schedules, where
such are specified, can only be regarded as tentative and must in any case be individually
established and verified by the plant operator.
– Where specific safeguards such as locks, labels, or redundant measuring systems are
necessary, these must be provided by the plant operator.
– A defective sensor must neither be installed nor put into service.
– No modifications to the sensors and the accessories are allowed. The manufacturer accepts
no responsibility for damages caused by unauthorized modifications. The risk is borne
entirely by the user.
Notice: Manipulation of the sensors may only take place after it is has been ensured
that no process medium can escape through the sensor in the event of incorrect mani pu-
lation. For this reason, the complete system must be emptied and vented in advance (safe
condition).
