819877-00
Basic safety information
Danger to life from scalding if the conductivity electrode is removed under pressure.
Steam or hot water can spurt forcefully out of the equipment.
■
■
Only remove the conductivity electrode at
0 bar boiler pressure
.
Risk of severe burns when working on a conductivity electrodes that has not been
allowed to cool. The conductivity electrode becomes very hot during operation.
■
■
Always allow the conductivity electrode to cool.
■
■
Perform all installation and maintenance work only when the conductivity electrode has
been allowed to cool.
There is a risk of electric shock during work on electrical systems.
■
■
Always switch off the voltage to the plant before performing connection work.
■
■
Check that the plant is not carrying live voltage before commencing work.
Danger to life from a faulty LRGT 1x-x conductivity electrode due to the sudden escape of
hot steam or hot water.
Shocks and impacts during transport or installation can result in damage to or leaks in the con-
ductivity electrode, causing pressurised hot steam or hot water to escape through the pressure
relief hole.
■
■
To prevent damage during transport and installation, do not expose the electrode
rod to hard impacts.
■
■
Before and after installation, check that the conductivity electrode is undamaged.
■
■
When bringing the conductivity electrode into service, check that it is tight.
Attempts to repair the equipment will cause the plant to become unsafe.
■
■
The LRGT 1x-x conductivity electrode may only be repaired by the manufacturer, GESTRA AG.
■
■
Only replace faulty equipment with identical equipment from GESTRA AG.
