2.3 Use as intended
The ME50 is suitable for measuring relative pressure and under-pressure in
fluid or gas-like, neutral, non-aggressive media.
If there is dirty or aggressive media in the system, or if this is to be expected,
the device must be modified in terms of those parts that come into contact with
the media. The device is to be exclusively used for the applications agreed
between the manufacturer and the user.
Explosion hazard area classification
The pressure transducer is suitable as 'Electrical equipment for use in poten-
tially explosive areas', Zone 2 - (Gases and vapours).
