DANGER: HAZARDOUS AREA INSTALLATION
Installations near flammable liquids or in hazardous area locations must be carefully evaluated by
qualified on site safety personnel. This sensor is not Intrinsically Safe or Explosion Proof.
To secure and maintain an intrinsically safe installation, the certified safety barrier, transmitter, and
sensor combination must be used. The installation system must comply with the governing approval
agency (FM, CSA or BASEEFA/CENELEC) hazardous area classification requirements. Consult your
analyzer/transmitter instruction manual for details.
Proper installation, operation and servicing of this sensor in a Hazardous Area Installation is entirely
the responsibility of the user.

ATEX DIRECTIVE: Special Conditions for safe use
1. All pH/ORP sensors have a plastic enclosure which must only be cleaned with a damp cloth to avoid
the danger due to a build up of an electrostatic charge.
2. All pH/ORP sensor Models are intended to be in contact with the process fluid and may not meet the
500V r.m.s. a.c. test to earth. This must be taken into consideration at installation.
