Technical Specifications of the meter PTM40/PLF40 

 

Intended Use 

1.1

The meter PTM40/PLF40 is intended for the measurement and documentation of analysis parameters while 
adhering to the technical specifications. Any use beyond this purpose - as well as your own modifications or 
expansions - is not in conformity with prohibited. 
 

 When you connect the meter to electro-chemical sensors, their limited product life and natural wear and tear 

must be taken into consideration, as these can lead to malfunctions of the meter. The user must take the 
appropriate measures to limit the dangerous effects of such malfunctions 
 
 

 

User qualification 

1.2

The meter was developed for measurements in analysis technology. It is assumed, based on their professional 
training and experience, that the operator/user and the maintenance personnel are familiar with the 
specifications of analysis meters, can handle chemicals in a safe manner, e.g. during maintenance work on the 
electrodes/sensors and that they can estimate the hazards caused by these. The operator must ensure that the 
national laws and guidelines regarding occupational safety, accident prevention and handling of chemicals are 
adhered to. 
 

 

Please observe the general

 (see 

 chapter 1.4) 

and

 all in the text 

additionally placed

 

warnings and 

safety notes!
