Intended use

METTLER TOLEDO InPro 8600 Series sensors are intended solely for the measurement of turbi-
dity in liquids in industrial applications.
Other prerequisites for appropriate use include:
– compliance with the instructions, notes and requirements set out in this instruction manual
– acceptance of responsibility for regular inspection, maintenance and functional testing of all
associated components, also including compliance with local operational and plant safety
regulations
– compliance with all information and warnings given in the documentation relating to the
products used in conjunction with the sensor (housings, transmitters, etc.).
– observance of all safety regulations governing the equipment in which the sensor is
installed
– correct equipment operation in conformance with the prescribed environmental and operatio-
nal conditions, and admissible installation positions
– observance of local legislation
– consultation with METTLER TOLEDO Process Analytics in the event of any uncertainties.

Inappropriate use

Any utilization other than the above mentioned, as well as any utilization with the technical data,
is taken as being not in conformance with the regulations. The operator bears the sole risk for
any damage caused by such utilization.

Basic principles

– The turbidity sensors and associated components have no effect on the process itself and
cannot influence it in the sense of any form of control system.
– Maintenance and service intervals and schedules depend on the application conditions,
composition of the sample media, plant equipment and significance of the safety control
features of the measuring system. Processes vary considerably, so that schedules, where
such are specified, can only be regarded as tentative and must in any case be individually
established and verified by the plant operator.
– Where specific safeguards such as locks, labels, or redundant measuring systems are
necessary, these must be provided by the plant operator.
– A defective sensor must neither be installed nor put into service.
– No modifications to the sensors and the accessories are allowed. The manufacturer
accepts no responsibility for damages caused by unauthorised modifications. The risk is
borne entirely by the user.
Notice: Manipulation of the sensors may only take place after it is has been ensured
that no process medium can escape through the sensor in the event of incorrect manipu-
lation. For this reason, the complete system must be emptied and vented in advance
(safe condition).

Responsibilities, organizational measures

2.7.1 Responsibilities of operator

– The operator is under obligation only to permit persons to work with InPro 8600 sensors,
who are familiar with the basic requirements of work safety and accident prevention, and
who have been instructed in the handling of the sensor. This instruction manual serves as
the basic document.
– In addition to the instruction manual there are also generally valid legal and other binding
regulations for work safety and accident prevention as well as for environmental protection,
and these must be provided by the operator and instructed to personnel using the sensors.
