PURGE THE INSTRUMENT
After installing the unit, or before its removal from a system, be sure to purge the unit completely
with a clean dry gas to eliminate all traces of the previously used flow material.
USE PROPER PROCEDURES WHEN PURGING
This instrument must be purged under a ventilation hood, and gloves must be worn to protect
personnel.
DO NOT OPERATE IN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
To avoid explosion, do not operate this product in an explosive atmosphere unless it has been
specifically certified for such operation.
USE PROPER FITTINGS AND TIGHTENING PROCEDURES
All instrument fittings must be consistent with instrument specifications, and compatible with the
intended use of the instrument. Assemble and tighten fittings according to manufacturer's
directions.
CHECK FOR LEAK-TIGHT FITTINGS
Before proceeding to instrument setup, carefully check all plumbing connections to the
instrument to ensure leak-tight installation.
OPERATE AT SAFE INLET PRESSURES
This unit should never be operated at pressures higher than the rated maximum pressure (refer to
the product specifications for the maximum allowable pressure).
INSTALL A SUITABLE BURST DISC
When operating from a pressurized gas source, a suitable burst disc should be installed in the
vacuum system to prevent system explosion should the system pressure rise.
