5 Proper use
The
METPOINT
®
PRM
pressure transducer detects the relative pressure (gauge pressure) in
gaseous
and
liquid
media and transforms this measured value into a linear output signal 4 … 20 mA or 0 … 10 V.
Pressure transducers
transform the physical pressure into a
pressure-proportional
electrical signal. De-
pending on the version, there are different measuring principles which form the basis of the pressure moni-
toring.
The
METPOINT
®
PRM
pressure transducer is exclusively designed and constructed for the proper applica-
tion purpose that is described herein and must be used correspondingly.
A check in order to ascertain whether or not the device is suitable for the chosen employment must be car-
ried out by the user. It must be ensured that the medium is compatible with the components which come into
contact with it.
The technical data listed in the data sheet are binding.
Improper handling or operation outside the technical specifications is impermissible.
Claims of any kind on
the basis of improper use are excluded.
6 Exclusion from the field of application
• The device is
not
suitable for use in hazardous areas.
• The device is
not
suitable for application with corrosive gases.
• Corrosive fluids must
not
be conducted through the pressure transducer.
• Improper handling or operation outside the technical specifications.
