Hazards due to electrostatic discharges
The electronic housing of the FLSE100 and of the optionally available meter body is
painted by the manufacturer with a layer thickness of max. 0.2 mm.
WARNING:
Ignition hazards through electrostatic discharges exist when the FLOWSIC100
Flare with special paint and a layer thickness > 0.2 mm is used in applications
with ignition group IIC in accordance with ATEX and IECEx.
For installation, the risk of electrostatic charging of the surface must be
reduced to a minimum.
Use appropriate caution when performing maintenance and cleaning work.
For example, the surfaces should only be cleaned with a damp cloth. The
affected devices will be identified by the manufacturer by a warning label.
