The equipment described in this document contains electronic components that are susceptible to
electrostatic
discharge
. In order to prevent damage, proper handling procedures must be followed during installation, (dis)connecting
and removing the electronics.
The equipment carries the CE-mark and is
compliant with the concerning EMC requirements
. However, EMC
requirements can only be met using appropriate cables and connector/gland assemblies. Bronkhorst recommends the use
of their standard cables. These cables have the right connectors and loose ends (if any) are marked to help prevent wrong
connection. When using other cables, cable wire diameters must be sufficient to carry the supply current, and voltage loss
must be kept as low as possible.
When connecting the product to other devices, be sure that the integrity of the shielding is not affected;
always use
shielded cabling for signals and communication and do not use unshielded wire terminals.
When in doubt about the suitability of your cabling, contact your Bronkhorst representative.
Always isolate the electrical power before connecting or disconnecting equipment.
When applying pressure, avoid pressure shocks and bring the fluid system gradually up to the level of the required
operating conditions; open the fluid supply gently.
Bronkhorst does the utmost to ensure that you receive a clean product. This does not, however, relieve the end user of the
responsibility to ensure that the instrument and the system in which it is incorporated meet the requirements implied by
the intended use of the instrument. The responsibility for cleaning the equipment to meet such requirements lies exclusively
with the end user.
·
Prior to powering down the ES-FLOW™, the fluid system should be depressurized.
·
When depressurizing, prevent sudden pressure changes by shutting off the fluid supply gradually.
Inexpertly servicing instruments can lead to serious personal injury and/or damage to the instrument or the system it is
used in. Servicing must therefore be performed by trained and qualified personnel. Contact your Bronkhorst representative
for information about cleaning and calibration. Bronkhorst has a trained staff available.
·
Before disconnecting or disassembling any fluid system related parts, always make sure the fluid system is depressurized.
·
When depressurizing, prevent sudden pressure changes by shutting off the fluid supply gradually.
Frequent inspection of all fluid lines and connections before, during and after operation is essential, to ensure and maintain
a safe working environment. If necessary, re-tighten fluid connections.
