Digital E3 Modulevel® with HART ® and PACTware™ Communications Liquid Level Displacer Transmitter Installation and Operating Manual E3 Modulevel® 48-635 E3 Modulevel® Displacer Level Transmitter Read this Manual Before Installing This manual provides information on the E3 Modulevel® Electronic Transmitters. It is important that all instructions are read carefully and followed in sequence. Detailed instal- lation, wiring and calibration instructions are included in this manual. If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by this manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. Conventions Used in this Manual Certain conventions are used in this manual to convey specific types of information. General technical material, support data, and safety information are presented in narrative form. The following styles are used for notes, cautions, and warnings. Notes Notes contain information that augments or clarifies an operating step. Notes do not normally contain actions. They follow the procedural steps to which they refer. Cautions Cautions alert the technician to special conditions that could injure personnel, damage equipment, or reduce a component’s mechanical integrity. Cautions are also used to alert the technician to unsafe practices or the need for special protective equipment or specific materi- als. In this manual, a caution box indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. Warnings Warnings identify potentially dangerous situations or serious hazards. In this manual, a warning indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death. Safety Messages Follow all standard industry procedures for servicing electrical and computer equipment when working with or around high voltage. Always shut off the power supply before touching any components. Electrical components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. To prevent equipment damage, observe safety procedures when working with electrostatic sensitive components. WARNING! Explosion hazard. Do not connect or disconnect equipment unless power has been switched off or the area is known to be non-hazardous. Low Voltage Directive For use in Installation Category I, Pollution Degree 2. If equipment is used in a manner not specified by manufac- turer, protection provided by equipment may be impaired.
