 Read this Manual Before Installing

This manual provides information on the E3 Modulevel

®

Electronic Transmitters. It is important that all instructions
are read carefully and followed in sequence. Detailed instal-
lation, wiring and calibration instructions are included in
this manual.
If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by this
manufacturer,  the  protection  provided  by  the  equipment
may be impaired.

Conventions Used in this Manual

Certain  conventions  are  used  in  this  manual  to  convey
specific  types  of  information.  General  technical  material,
support  data,  and  safety  information  are  presented  in
narrative  form.  The  following  styles  are  used  for  notes,
cautions, and warnings.

Notes

Notes contain information that augments or clarifies an
operating step. Notes do not normally contain actions.
They follow the procedural steps to which they refer.

Cautions

Cautions alert the technician to special conditions that
could injure personnel, damage equipment, or reduce a
component’s  mechanical  integrity.  Cautions  are  also
used  to  alert  the  technician  to  unsafe  practices  or  the
need for special protective equipment or specific materi-
als. In this manual, a caution box indicates a potentially
hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in
minor or moderate injury.

Warnings

Warnings  identify  potentially  dangerous  situations  or
serious hazards. In this manual, a warning indicates an
imminently  hazardous  situation  which,  if  not  avoided,
could result in serious injury or death.

Safety Messages

Follow  all  standard  industry  procedures  for  servicing 
electrical  and  computer  equipment  when  working  with
or around high voltage. Always shut off the power supply
before touching any components.

Electrical  components  are  sensitive  to  electrostatic
discharge.  To  prevent  equipment  damage,  observe  safety
procedures  when  working  with  electrostatic  sensitive
components.

WARNING!

Explosion  hazard.  Do  not  connect  or

disconnect  equipment  unless  power  has  been  switched
off or the area is known to be non-hazardous.

Low Voltage Directive

For  use  in  Installation  Category  I,  Pollution  Degree  2.  If
equipment is used in a manner not specified by manufac-
turer, protection provided by equipment may be impaired.
