6.4 Specific conditions of use
Ambient and medium temperature range -40 ... +102 °C
The relationship between the maximum ambient and medium temperature and the temperature
class shall be taken from the following table:
Max. ambient temperature
60 °C
75 °C
102 °C
A medium temperature of max 105 °C for T4...T1 is permitted if the pressure transmitter is
mounted in a way that it's temperature above the hexagon of the process connection does not
become higher than 102 °C.
WARNING
Protect the diaphragm against any contact with abrasive substances and
■
pressure peaks and do not touch it with tools. If you damage the diaphragm, no
explosion protection can be ensured (ATEX and IECEx)!
Do not use the pressure transmitter outside of the temperature range of
■
-40 ... 60 (T6) / 75 (T5) / 102 (T4...T1) °C. Outside of this range explosion
protection is not ensured.
Observe the permissible ambient and medium temperatures applicable for the
■
hazardous area according to the defined temperature classes.
