1 General
1.1 Introduction
This MT5000 series is comprised of the MT5000, MT5100 and
MT5200 models. This manual provides an overview of the safety
aspects that must be observed for the installation and operation of
the device.
1.2 Product description
The MT-series of level transmitters is a modular range of field
mounted, microprocessor-based electronic transmitters, utilizing
guided wave radar technology. Accurate and reliable measurement
of liquid, solids and slurry level is provided in even the most difficult
and hazardous industrial environments. The MT-series can be con-
figured to provide specific industrial output signals, according to
4–20 mA with HART digital communication as well as FOUNDATION
Fieldbus protocol. The MT-series consists of three models: MT5000
(total level measurement), MT5100(total level and interface measure-
ment) and MT5200 (total level measurement with ULD mode for low
dielectric applications).
1.3 General safety information
The device is constructed in accordance with international and local
regulations and is deemed to be operationally safe. Additionally, the
device is tested and shipped from the factory in perfect working
condition. The information contained within this safety manual, as
well as all applicable documentation and certification, must be ob-
served and adhered to in order to maintain the factory-deployed
condition throughout the MT-series period of operation.
Full compliance with the general safety requirements must be ob-
served during handling, installation, maintenance or operation of the
device. In addition to providing general information, the individual
sections within this manual contain descriptions, processes and/or
procedural instructions with specific safety information for that
corresponding action.
Only by observing all of the safety information can the user minimize
the risk of hazards to personnel and/or the environment. The provid-
ed instructions are intended as an overview only and do not contain
