MPa = bar ÷ 10 / kPa = bar × 100
Static and dynamic overpressures exceeding the indicated overload pres-
sure are to be avoided by taking appropriate measures.
The indicated bursting pressure must not be exceeded. Even if the bur-
sting pressure is exceeded only for a short time, the unit can be destroyed.
NOTE: Risk of injury!
Use in gases at pressures > 25 bar only after contacting the manufacturer
ifm.
High-pressure units (400 bar) are supplied with an integrated damping device to
comply with the regulations for UL approval and to avoid any risk of injury in case
of bursting when bursting pressure is exceeded.
• When the damping device is removed the damping device can become unus-
able.
• When the damping device is removed the unit can no longer be used under UL
conditions,
