Safety Information 

Important Safety Information 

The VeriFast LVDT is used in conjunction with welding equipment and machinery. Therefore, as 
a supplement to the safety information offered in this manual for the VeriFast LVDT, all the 
safety considerations that pertain to the equipment used in conjunction with the VeriFast LVDT 
still apply and must be followed thoroughly. 

Furthermore, all the existing plant safety regulations and other safety instructions from suppliers 
whose components are used with or around the VeriFast LVDT must be followed accordingly. 

Any instructions contained in this manual that directly conflict with any other known safety 
procedures should be brought to CenterLine’s immediate attention for clarification. 

 

•

  Equipment is not to be modified, adapted, or changed without 

consulting the relevant sections of this manual or the 
manufacturer (please refer to the inside front cover of this manual 
for CenterLine contact information). 

•

  Before any installation, maintenance, or repair work is started, all 

sources of energy should be removed from the equipment using 
proper LOCKOUT procedures for electrical, pneumatic, and water 
services. 

•

  Pneumatic and cooling water lines represent potential hazards. 

Ensure all air and water lines are properly connected and 
secured prior to turning ON these services. 

Handling the VeriFast LVDT 

In order to prevent potentially serious personal injury, the VeriFast LVDT should be handled, 
installed, and operated according to the guidelines outlined in this document. Failure to follow 
the guidelines set forth here will bear unexpected and potentially dangerous results.
