3 (Initial) Start-up
Disconnect from power before starting work!
Check the following points before device start-up:
• Do probe, flange, gaskets and PTFE (included in all versions) have adequate corrosion
resistance to the tank product?
• Do the data on the nameplate of the signal converter agree with your operating data?
• Check that the measuring device has been properly installed on the tank.
• Is the equipotential bonding system correctly connected?
• Is the separation barrier connected correctly?
• Are the screws of the terminal compartment cover / DIN plug connector tightened down?
Further start-up procedures are described in the standard Installation and Operating Instructions
for the BM 102.
4 Operation
If parametrization of the device is required or necessary, this can be done using the HART
interface and one of the available communication programs.
Make sure that the HART adapter required for communication is connected to the
non-intrinsically safe side of the repeater power supply unit. It may not be connected
into the intrinsically safe circuit between the repeater power supply unit and the
BM 102.
