3 Safety
Before using the instrument, read and understand all the related data.
This includes: the applicable local safety procedures, the user manual
(K0462), and the instructions for the accessories/options/equipment.
General warnings WARNING
• It is dangerous to ignore the specified limits for the instrument
or to use the instrument when it is not in its normal condition.
Use the applicable protection and obey all safety precautions.
• Do not use the instrument in locations with explosive gas,
vapour or dust. There is a risk of an explosion.
Pressure warnings • It is dangerous to attach an external source of pressure to a
PV 62X-IS series pressure station. Use only the internal
mechanisms to set and control the pressure in the pressure
station.
• Some liquid and gas mixtures are dangerous. This includes
mixtures that occur because of contamination. Make sure that
the equipment is safe to use with the necessary media.
• To prevent a dangerous release of pressure, isolate and bleed
the system before disconnecting a pressure connection.
• To prevent a dangerous release of pressure, make sure that all
the related pipes, hoses and equipment have the correct
pressure rating, are safe to use and are correctly attached.
• For the PV 623-IS, ensure that the system is bled of excess air
before operation. (If the item under test has a large volume,
pre-fill with the pressure fluid to ensure that trapped air is kept
to a minimum).
Electrical warnings • When using the DPI 620G-IS calibrator with a pressure station,
refer to K0461 DPI 620G-IS Safety Instructions and User guide.
Cautions To prevent damage to the PM 620-IS module, only use it within
the specified pressure limit on the label.
To prevent damage to the pressure station, do not let dirt get
into the pressure mechanism. Clean the equipment before
attaching it.
Before starting an operation or procedure in this publication, the user
must have the necessary skills (if necessary, with qualifications from an
approved training establishment). Follow good engineering practice at
all times.
