Note 3. Maintenance and Repair
• The instrument modification or parts
replacement by other than authorized
representative of Yokogawa Electric
Corporation is prohibited and will void IECEx
Intrinsically safe Certification.
WARNING
The instrument modification or parts replacement
by other than an authorized Representative of
Yokogawa Electric Corporation is prohibited and
will void the certification.
Note 4. Battery Pack
• Use only YOKOGAWA battery pack
F9915MA or F9915NS.
Note 5. Special conditions for Safe Use
• In case the enclosure of the Pressure
Transmitter is made of aluminum, if it
is mounted in an area where the use of
apparatus of equipment protection level Ga
is required, it must be installed such, that,
even in the event of rare incidents, ignition
sources due to impact and friction sparks are
excluded.
• For applications in explosive atmospheres
caused by gases, vapors or mists and
mounted in an area where the use of
apparatus of equipment protection level Ga
is required, electrostatic charges on the non-
metallic parts of the Pressure Transmitter
shall be avoided.
WARNING
• Potential electrostatic charging hazard -
secure distance of 100mm from antenna.
• Take care not to generate mechanical
sparking when access to the instrument and
peripheral devices in a hazardous location.
