12.3.1.1 Isolation of input/outputs
The current output, digital outputs DO1 and DO2, and digital input are
electrically isolated from the flowmeter sensor input circuit and from
each other. The same is valid for the signal outputs of the versions
with PROFIBUS PA and FOUNDATION Fieldbus.
12.3.1.2 Empty pipe detection
The "empty pipe detection" function requires:
A conductivity of the measured fluid

20 µS/cm, a signal cable
length ≤ 50 m (164 ft), a nominal diameter DN ≥ DN 10, and the
flowmeter sensor must not be provided with a preamplifier.
