2 Safety information
2.1 General
Before commissioning, check the condition of the instrument and any accessories supplied.
Before commissioning, please read the user manual. Ensure that the instrument is suitable
for your application.
To guarantee safe operation, the instrument may only be operated in accordance with the
information in the User Manual. When the instrument is in use, the statutory and safety
regulations required for the particular application must be complied with. By analogy this also
applies to the use of the accessories.
If the instrument is not handled correctly, or if the operating instructions and specifications
are not adhered to, damage to property or personal injury can result.
2.2 Proper use
The HFT 2100 series instruments are designed to monitor the flow of viscous fluids
continuously. Any other use above and beyond this is considered improper usage.
Unless otherwise indicated, the instrument measuring ranges relate to mineral oil. With
particular regard to applications with intermittent loads (e.g. pulsed operation), please consult
our technical sales department beforehand, so that the necessary checks can be made.
Series HFT 2100 instruments must not be installed as the sole means of preventing
dangerous conditions on machines and systems.
Machines and systems must be designed in such a way that error conditions cannot lead to a
dangerous situation for operating personnel.
2.3 Qualified staff
Series HFT 2100 instruments must only be installed by qualified personnel who are properly
trained in this type of work.
Qualified persons are those individuals who are familiar with the set-up, installation,
commissioning and operation of these instruments and who have the appropriate
qualification for this function.
