3 Basic safety instructions

3.1 Requirements for personnel

The personnel must fulfill the following requirements for its tasks:

‣Trained, qualified specialists must have a relevant qualification for the specific function

and task

‣Are authorized by the plant owner/operator

‣Are familiar with federal/national regulations

‣Must have read and understood the instructions in the manual and supplementary

documentation

‣Follow instructions and comply with conditions

3.2 Intended use

Application and media

The measuring device described in this manual is intended only for the level measurement of

liquids. Depending on the version ordered, the measuring device can also measure potentially

explosive, flammable, poisonous and oxidizing media.

If the limit values specified in the "Technical data" and the conditions listed in the manual and

additional documentation are observed, the measuring device may be used for the following

measurements only:

‣Measured process variables: level

‣Calculable process variables: volume or mass in any shape of vessel (calculated from the

level by the linearization functionality)

Levelflex FMP50 FOUNDATION Fieldbus Basic safety instructions

Endress+Hauser 5

To ensure that the measuring device remains in proper condition for the operation time:

‣Use the measuring device only for media to which the process-wetted materials have an

adequate level of resistance.

‣Observe the limit values in the "Technical data".

Incorrect use

The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by improper or non-intended use.

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.

Residual risks

Due to heat transfer from the process as well as power loss in the electronics, the temperature

of the electronics housing and the assemblies contained therein (e.g. display module, main

electronics module and I/O electronics module) may rise up to 80 °C (176 °F). When in

operation, the sensor may reach a temperature close to the medium temperature.

Danger of burns from contact with surfaces!

‣In the event of high medium temperatures, ensure protection against contact to prevent

burns.

3.3 Workplace safety

When working on and with the device:

‣Wear the required personal protective equipment according to federal/national

regulations.

3.4 Operational safety

Risk of injury!

‣Operate the device only if it is in proper technical condition, free from errors and faults.

‣The operator is responsible for the interference-free operation of the device.

Modifications to the device

Unauthorized modifications to the device are not permitted and can lead to unforeseeable

dangers:

‣If modifications are nevertheless required, consult with the manufacturer.

Repair

To ensure continued operational safety and reliability:

‣Carry out repairs on the device only if they are expressly permitted.

‣Observe federal/national regulations pertaining to the repair of an electrical device.

‣Use only original spare parts and accessories from the manufacturer.

2 Insulated fastening kit

Mounting Levelflex FMP50 FOUNDATION Fieldbus

10 Endress+Hauser

• The end of the rope probe must be secured (fixed down) under the following conditions:

If the probe would otherwise temporarily come into contact with the vessel wall, the cone,

internal fittings/beams or another part of the installation

• A female thread is provided in the probe weight to secure the end of the probe:

Rope 4 mm (1/6"), 316: M 14

• When fixed down, the end of the probe must be either reliably grounded or reliably

insulated. Use an insulated fastening kit if it is not otherwise possible to secure the probe

with a reliably insulated connection.

Securing rod probes

• In the case of WHG approval: a support is required for probe lengths ≥ 3 m (10 ft).

• In general, rod probes must be secured in the event of horizontal flow (e.g. from an

agitator) or strong vibrations.

• Only secure rod probes directly at the end of the probe.
