2.3
Requirements for special applications
Due to the large number of possible applications, each detail of the described device versions
for each possible scenario during commissioning, operation, maintenance or operation in
systems cannot be considered in the instructions. If you need additional information not
covered by these instructions, contact your local Siemens office or company representative.
Note
Operation under special ambient conditions
We highly recommend that you contact your Siemens representative or our application
department before you operate the device under special ambient conditions as can be
encountered in nuclear power plants or when the device is used for research and
development purposes.
Note
Operation under special atmospheric conditions
Ultrasonic measurement requires that the sound wave travel through the atmosphere in a
consistent manner. Applications with atmospheric conditions different from air (including,
but not limited to, gas layer stratification, very high methane or CO
2
concentrations), should
be properly assessed to ensure safe, reliable use in the event of measurement errors due to
sound wave velocity changes.
