1.2 Operator safety
The operator must take all necessary precautions when using the equipment in high risk areas (under high noise levels,
high light and radiation levels, extreme temperature conditions, chemical corrosive elements, etc.).
The user must be particularly vigilant when entering enclosed zones (holds, silos) where a risk of asphyxiation or lack of
oxygen is possible. There is no likelihood of direct consequences for the hearing capacities of the operator.
The instrument MAY NOT be used inside any classified zone requiring explosion proof equipment. When required to
make measurements in areas where an explosive atmosphere might exist, operators should be aware of the fact that
the SDT 270 receiver and the SDT 8 MS transmitter are not intrinsically safe. However, and for use in explosive
atmospheres, SDT has developed the SDT 270 Ex‐proof version but same is not covered by the present manual.
1.3 End of life destruction of the equipment
When the equipment becomes obsolete, the internal battery pack must be removed from the equipment, and must be
disposed of in such a way that conforms to the environmental laws of the country where the equipment is located.
The outer casing and other internal components may be destroyed by the appropriate specialized organizations.
The mandatory stipulations of applicable law take precedence over the contents of this User’s Manual.
