5. Data Transmission
The interface connection and the data transmission can only be
carried out with an accompanying interface.
The fundamental requirements are valid for the SELV-Circuit with
max. 60V DC.
6. Battery Change
When the battery needs changing and while there is still a usable charge
remaining, the battery should be changed in order to ensure a safe and
optimum operation.
The exchange of this maintenance element may only be carried out
outside of the hazardous area.
Take care and ensure that when changing the battery, that only
those in the listed operating instructions are used.
The use of any other type of battery is strictly forbidden in that it
will invalidate the Ex-data certification.
For the changing of batteries please follow the advice in the Software
module operating instructions as detailed in the section titled
„Changing the battery“.
7. Regular Inspection, Maintenance
Testing and calibration of the apparatus should be at regular
intervals – usually every two years.
WARNING!
DO NOT USE SOLVENTS TO CLEAN THE CASING
THE EQUIPMENT MUST NOT BE IMMERSED IN WATER
HUMIDITY SENSORS MUST NOT BE PUT IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH
AGGRESSIVE MATERIALS AND MUST NOT BE CLEANED

1. Safety Advice
The following operating instructions contain information and precautionary
advice which for the described conditions, must be taken into consideration
to guarantee safe operation.
2. Faults and Damage
If there is any reason to suspect that the safety of the equipment has
been affected then it must be immediately withdrawn from use and
precautionary measures taken in order to prevent any further use of the
equipment in the hazardous area until such time that all necessary
checks and repairs have been carried out.
The safety of the equipment can be compromised by, for example:
- External damage to the housing
- Incorrect loads
- Measuring is no longer possible
- Incorrect storage of equipment
- Equipment has suffered damage whilst in transit
Measures have been taken to ensure that this equipment operates safely,
accurately and reliably. In all circumstances the equipment should be
handled with great care. If irregularities do occur, it is recommended that the
equipment be returned to the manufacturer for testing.
3. Safety Regulations
The use of these data loggers requires the user to comply with the usual
safety regulations in order to avoid incorrect operation of the equipment.
4. Technical Safety Advice
Before use, please read the operating instructions and ensure that the
maximum limitations are not exceeded in hazardous areas.
Only use the indicated working conditions given for the equipment.
THE CASING MUST NOT BE OPENED WITHIN THE HAZARDOUS
AREA.
THE BATTERY MUST NOT BE CHANGED WITHIN THE HAZARDOUS
AREA.

8. Repairs
The general terms and conditions of ELEX V apply to repair work.
We recommend that the manufacturer carry out all repair work in order to
check for the safe working of the equipment.
9. Guarantee
The instrument parts and functions are guaranteed for two years from the
date of delivery. This guarantee remains valid if defective components are
submitted. We reserve the right to exchange, modify or repair the
equipment.
10. Liability
The company ECOM R. Nied GmbH is responsible for the granting of the
guarantee. It takes no responsibility for damages, expenses or losses
resulting from the use or purchase of equipment. Neither is ECOM liable for
damages, expenses or losses arising from any special or subsequent
damages.
11. Applications in Ex-Areas
The data loggers Ex 171-0 and Ex 171-3 measure and store up to 55,000
measurements and have a battery life of up to four years. Applications in
hazardous areas of - for example - the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, are in the monitoring of the atmosphere, especially the
documentation of atmospheric facts, temperature [°C] and relative
humidity [%rH]. With in the hazardous area the use of the equipment is only
permitted if used under the specified conditions. The battery must only be
change outside of the hazardous areas. The data loggers can be programmed
individually with the optional obtainable software COMSOFT Light and the
accompanying interface on the respective operation point outside of the
hazardous area. The programming, especially the measuring can be
confirmed at any time by an activating signal. The compact size of the
equipment with its integral fastening loop allows ease of siting in the areas to
be monitored. Initiation can be carried out either by use of a special magnet
or automatically. During data collection no further maintenance measures
other than those listed are to be carried out. After recording and then only
outside of the hazardous area, the data can, by means of software and the
software interface, be selected and exported to other programmes.
