2 Safety instructions
2.1 Requirements for the personnel
The personnel must fulfill the following requirements for its tasks:
‣ Trained, qualified specialists must have a relevant qualification for this specific function
and task.
‣ Are authorized by the plant owner/operator.
‣ Are familiar with federal/national regulations.
‣ Before starting work, read and understand the instructions in the manual and
supplementary documentation as well as the certificates (depending on the application).
‣ Follow instructions and comply with basic conditions.

2.2 Intended use

Application and media
The measuring device described in this manual is intended only for the flow measurement of
liquids with a minimum conductivity of 20 µS/cm.

Measuring devices for use in applications where there is an increased risk due to process
pressure are labeled accordingly on the nameplate.
To ensure that the measuring device remains in proper condition for the operation time:
‣ Keep within the specified pressure and temperature range.
‣ Only use the measuring device in full compliance with the data on the nameplate and the
general conditions listed in the Operating Instructions and supplementary documentation.
‣ Based on the nameplate, check whether the ordered device is permitted for the intended
use in the hazardous area (e.g. explosion protection, pressure vessel safety).
‣ Use the measuring device only for media to which the process-wetted materials are
sufficiently resistant.
‣ If the ambient temperature of the measuring device is outside the atmospheric
temperature, it is absolutely essential to comply with the relevant basic conditions as
specified in the device documentation.
‣ Protect the measuring device permanently against corrosion from environmental
influences.

Incorrect use
Non-designated use can compromise safety. The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused
by improper or non-designated use.

LWARNING
Danger of breakage due to corrosive or abrasive fluids and ambient conditions!
‣ Verify the compatibility of the process fluid with the sensor material.
‣ Ensure the resistance of all fluid-wetted materials in the process.
‣ Keep within the specified pressure and temperature range.

Safety instructions Proline 800 Cellular radio

NOTICE
Verification for borderline cases:
‣ For special fluids and fluids for cleaning, Endress+Hauser is glad to provide assistance in
verifying the corrosion resistance of fluid-wetted materials, but does not accept any
warranty or liability as minute changes in the temperature, concentration or level of
contamination in the process can alter the corrosion resistance properties.

Residual risks

LWARNING
If the temperature of the media or electronics unit is high or low, this may cause the
surfaces of the device to become hot or cold. This poses a risk of burns or frostbite!
‣ In the case of hot or cold medium temperatures, install appropriate protection against
contact.

2.3 Workplace safety

For work on and with the device:
‣ Wear the required personal protective equipment according to national regulations.
For welding work on the piping:
‣ Do not ground the welding unit via the measuring device.
If working on and with the device with wet hands:
‣ Due to the increased risk of electric shock, wear suitable gloves.

2.4 Operational safety

Risk of injury.
‣ Operate the device in proper technical condition and fail-safe condition only.
‣ The operator is responsible for interference-free operation of the device.

2.5 Product safety

This measuring device is designed in accordance with good engineering practice to meet state-
of-the-art safety requirements, has been tested, and left the factory in a condition in which it
is safe to operate.
It meets general safety standards and legal requirements. It also complies with the EU
directives listed in the device-specific EU Declaration of Conformity. Endress+Hauser confirms
this by affixing the CE mark to the device.

5 Electrical connection
NOTICE
In the device versions with a mains connection (order code for "Power supply" option K or
S), the device does not have an internal circuit breaker to disconnect from the power
supply network.
‣ For this reason, assign the measuring device a switch or power-circuit breaker so that the
power supply line can be easily disconnected from the mains.
‣ Although the measuring device is equipped with a fuse, additional overcurrent protection
(maximum 16 A) should be integrated into the system installation.

5.1 Electrical safety

LCAUTION
Insufficient or faulty potential equalization.
May destroy the electrodes and thus result in the complete failure of the device!

‣ Use a ground cable with a minimum cross-section of 6 mm2 (0.0093 in2) for potential
matching connections

5.9 Ensuring potential equalization

5.9.1 Introduction
Correct potential equalization (equipotential bonding) is a prerequisite for stable and reliable
flow measurement. Inadequate or incorrect potential equalization can result in device failure
and present a safety hazard.
The following requirements must be observed to ensure correct, trouble-free measurement:
• The principle that the medium, the sensor and the transmitter must be at the same
electrical potential applies.
• Take in-company grounding guidelines, materials and the grounding conditions and
potential conditions of the pipe into consideration.
• The necessary potential equalization connections must be established using a ground cable
with a minimum cross-section of 6 mm2 (0.0093 in2).
• For remote device versions, the ground terminal in the example always refers to the sensor
and not to the transmitter.
You can order accessories such as ground cables and ground disks directly from Endress
+Hauser
Abbreviations used
• PE (Protective Earth): potential at the protective earth terminals of the device
• PP (Potential Pipe): potential of the pipe, measured at the flanges
• PM (Potential Medium): potential of the medium
