LCR.iQ Product Manual > Safety Procedures

BE PREPARED

•Before using this product, read and understand the instructions.

•All work must be performed by qualified personnel trained in the proper application, installation, and maintenance of equipment and/or systems in accordance with all applicable codes and ordinances.

•When handling electronic components/boards, always use proper Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)equipment and follow proper procedures.

•Make sure that all necessary safety precautions have been taken.

•Provide for proper ventilation, temperature control, fire prevention, evacuation, and fire management.

•Provide easy access to appropriate fire extinguishers for your product.

•Consult with your local fire department, state, and local codes to ensure adequate preparation.

•Read this manual and all the literature provided in your owner’s packet.

•Save these instructions for future reference.

•Failure to follow the instructions in this publication could result in, personal injury, or death from fire and/or explosion, property damage, or other hazards that may be associated with this type of equipment.

SAFELY EVACUATE PIPING SYSTEM

Before disassembly of any meter or accessory component: ALL INTERNAL PRESSURES MUST BE RELIEVED AND ALL LIQUID DRAINED FROM THE SYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE PROCEDURES.

•Pressure must be 0 (zero) psi.

•Close all liquid and vapor lines between the meter and liquid source.

Failure to follow this warning could result in property damage, personal injury, or death from fire and/or explosion, or other hazards that may be associated with this type of equipment.

OBSERVE NATIONAL & LOCAL CODES

Power, input, and output (I/O) wiring must be in accordance with the area classification for which it is used (Class I, Div 2). For North America, installations must be per the U. S. National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code in order to maintain Class I, Division 2 ratings. This may require using connections or other adaptations in accordance with the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

Peripheral equipment must be suitable for the hazardous location where it is installed. (L'équipement périphérique doit être adapté à la zone dangereux où il est installé.)

WARNING: Explosion Hazard

When in hazardous locations, turn power OFF before replacing or wiring modules. (Lorsque dans des endroits dangereux, coupler le courant avant de remplacer ou de câbler des modules.)

DO NOT disconnect equipment unless power has been switched OFF or the area is known to be Non-Hazardous. (NE PAS déconnecter l'équipement san coupler l'alimentation ou sans s'assurer que la zone est non dangereuse.)

WARNING: Use 3.5 in • lb (0.4 N • m) torque when tightening terminal block screws.

Preventing ESD Damage

To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, truck installations must properly ground the truck seat cushion and the Epson printer chassis. Prolonged exposure to ESD over weeks, months, or years can corrupt register memory and damage the electronic components in Register registers (as well as other electrical components in the truck electrical system).

Adjustable, shock-absorbing seats, if not grounded correctly, generate significant amounts of ESD. The pivots and hinges of these seats isolate the seat cushion from an electrical ground. Without proper bonding, static electric charge builds between the seat cushion and the operator. This electric charge can enter the Register from any point in the truck electrical system, including register power and printer cabling.
