Device Safety Considerations
-
Reading these Instructions

Protecting Operating Processes
A failure of this device – for whatever reason — may leave an operating process without appropriate protection and could result in possible damage to property or injury to persons. To protect against this, you should review the need for additional backup equipment or provide alternate means of protection (such as alarm devices, output limiting, fail-safe valves, relief valves, emergency shutoffs, emergency switches, etc.). Contact Remote Automation Solutions for additional information. -
Returning Equipment
If you need to return any equipment to Remote Automation Solutions, it is your responsibility to ensure that the equipment has been cleaned to safe levels, as defined and/or determined by applicable federal, state, and/or local law regulations or codes. You also agree to indemnify Remote Automation Solutions and hold Remote Automation Solutions harmless from any liability or damage which Remote Automation Solutions may incur or suffer due to your failure to ensure device cleanliness. -

You must also ground mechanical or pneumatic instruments that include electrically operated devices such as lights, switches, relays, alarms, or chart drives.
Important: Complying with the codes and regulations of authorities having jurisdiction is essential to ensuring personnel safety. The guidelines and recommendations in this manual are intended to meet or exceed applicable codes and regulations.
