Safety information
Danger of explosion through operation in hazardous areas
When using the analyzer in hazardous areas, it may ignite explosive gases.
The result could be death, severe physical injury and/or damage to property.
Do not use the standard version of the analyzer in hazardous areas! Clarify the supply of
gases with flammable components at concentrations above the lower explosive limit (LEL)
with the responsible expert for explosion hazards. The plant owner is finally responsible for
the supply.
Danger of burns

Since the sensor is exposed when the housing is open, touching can result in skin burns.
Before opening the housing, always wait for at least one hour to allow the device to cool
down.

Installation requirements
Select an installation location which is as vibration-free as possible.
If the OXYMAT 64 is installed in a cabinet or desktop housing, it must be supported on rails.
It is not sufficient to only secure the front side, since the weight of the device loads the
chassis too greatly.
When installing in control cabinets, ensure sufficient ventilation between the devices. Protect
the device from direct sunlight. During operation, make sure that the permissible ambient
temperature of 5 °C to 45 °C is observed.
Do not install an OXYMAT 6 or 61 in the direct vicinity of the OXYMAT 64. Due to their
functional principle, the OXYMAT 6 and OXYMAT 61 emit magnetic stray fields. Distances of
up to 50 cm are therefore necessary between the devices.
