Caution / Warning / Danger

Indicates a potential hazard. Failure to follow all warnings 
may lead to equipment damage, injury, or death

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) / Electrocution Danger

Alerts user to risk of potential damage to product by ESD, 
and/or risk of potential of injury or death via electrocution.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Always utilize the most appropriate PPE during 
installation and service of Signet products.

Pressurized System Warning

Sensor may be under pressure, take caution to vent 
system prior to installation or removal. Failure to do so 
may result in equipment damage and/or serious injury.

Note / Technical Notes

Highlights additional information or detailed procedure.

Refer to your local Georg Fischer Sales of

fi

 ce for the most 

current warranty statement.
All warranty and non-warranty repairs being returned must 
include a fully completed Service Form and goods must be 
returned to your local GF Sales of

fi

 ce or distributor. 

Product returned without a Service Form may not be 
warranty replaced or repaired.
Signet products with limited shelf-life (e.g. pH, ORP, chlorine 
electrodes, calibration solutions; e.g. pH buffers, turbidity 
standards or other solutions) are warranted out of box but not 
warranted against any damage, due to process or application 
failures (e.g. high temperature, chemical poisoning, dry-out) or 
mishandling (e.g. broken glass, damaged membrane, freezing 
and/or extreme temperatures).
