SAFETY MESSAGES Procedures and instructions in this section may require special precautions to
ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Information that
raises potential safety issues is indicated by a warning symbol ( ). Please
refer to the following safety messages before performing an operation
preceded by this symbol.
Failure to follow safe installation and service guidelines could result in death or
serious injury
• Make sure the transmitter is installed by qualified personnel and in accordance
with applicable code of practice.
• Use the equipment only as specified in the Rosemount 5300 Series Reference
Manual (Document No. 00809-0100-4530), the Rosemount 5400 Series
Reference Manual (Document No. 00809-0100-4026), and in this Manual
Supplement. Failure to do so may impair the protection provided by the
equipment.
• Do not perform any services other than those contained in this manual unless
you are qualified.
Explosions could result in death or serious injury
• Verify that the operating environment of the transmitter is consistent with the
appropriate hazardous locations specifications.
• To prevent ignition of flammable or combustible atmospheres, disconnect
power before servicing.
• Before connecting a HART
®
or FOUNDATION™ fieldbus based communicator in
an explosive atmosphere, make sure the instruments in the loop are installed in
accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.
• To avoid process leaks, only use o-ring designed to seal with the
corresponding flange adapter.
Electrical shock can result in death or serious injury
• Avoid contact with the leads and terminals. High voltage that may be present
on leads can cause electrical shock.
• Make sure the main power to the Rosemount 5300 Series transmitter or
Rosemount 5400 Series transmitter is off and the lines to any other external
power source are disconnected or not powered while wiring the transmitter.
Probes with non-conducting surfaces
• Probes covered with plastic and/or with plastic discs may generate an
ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions.
Therefore, when the probe is used in a potentially explosive atmosphere,
appropriate measures must be taken to prevent electrostatic discharge.
