The IPX II contains a small amount of mercury (Hg) as its transmission medium. If the
diaphragm is damaged, mercury may escape.
Never transport or store the IPX II without the protective cap. Remove the cap shortly
before installation.

If mercury escapes, use airtight packaging!
When planning machinery and using the IPX II, follow the safety and accident
prevention regulations that apply to your application, e.g.:
• EN 60204, Electrical equipment in machines.
• EN 292, Machine safety, general design guidelines.
• DIN 57 100 Part 410, Protection against electric shock.
• EN 50 014:1997, General Requirements
• EN 50 020:1994, Intrinsic safety apparatus
• EN50284:1999, Speical requirements for Group II Category 1G
Mounting and electrical connection of the PT must be done by specialists with EMC training,
following all applicable regulations, and in
pressureless, voltage-free, intrinsically safepressureless, voltage-free, intrinsically safe
