1.1.6
The factory panel can be found on the converter housing. Labelling is undertaken using 2 different factory
panels depending on whether the pressure equipment falls within the scope of the PED or not (also refer
to Article 3 Paragraph 3 of the PED 97/23/EC):
a) Pressure equipment falling under the scope of the PED
(only applies to Miniflow with nominal size of DN 50. Classification in accordance with category I, imple-
mentation in accordance with module A, conformity evaluation and CE marking by ABB)
b) Pressure equipment not falling under the scope of the PED
(applies to Miniflow with nominal size DN 10, 15, 25. classification in accordance with Article 3, Paragraph
3 "Sound engineering practice" no CE mark),

Staff training

Only trained specialists and those authorised by the system operator may undertake electrical instal-
lation work, equipment commissioning and maintenance.

Obligations of the operator

Before using corrosive or abrasive measuring agents, the operator must clarify that all parts which
come into contact with these fluids are resistant to such agents. ABB would be more than happy to
assist you in your selection, but cannot assume liability for any choices made.
Always observe your country's national regulations governing function tests, repair and maintenance
of electrical equipment.
The factory panel on the Miniflow DN 50 contains the follow-
ing details:
• CE mark.
• Serial number for identification of pressure equipment
by manufacturer.
• Nominal size and nominal pressure level of pressure
equipment.
• Flange material, liner material and electrode material
(comes into contact with measuring agent).
• Year of construction of pressure equipment and details
of fluid group to be taken into consideration in accor-
dance with the PED (PressureEquipmentDirective =
PED) Fluid Group 1 = hazardous fluids, gaseous.
• Manufacturer of the pressure equipment.
The factory panel contains almost the same information as
the plate described under a) with the following differences:
• CE marking must not be provided because the
pressure equipment does not fall within the scope of the
PED.
• The reason for this exception, Article 3 Paragraph 3 of
the PED is specified under PED. The pressure
equipment is classified in the SEP area
(= Sound Engineering Practice).
