Safety (Continued)

• To prevent electrical shocks or damage to the 

instrument, do not connect more than 30V between
the terminals, or between the terminals and the 
ground (earth).

• UPM only. To prevent a dangerous release of 

pressure, isolate and bleed the system before you
disconnect a pressure connection.

Before you start an operation or procedure in this 
publication, make sure that you have the necessary skills 
(if necessary, with qualifications from an approved 
training establishment). Follow good engineering practice 
at all times.
