  • Page 5: Introduction

    In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions only form one element of such a concept. Customer is responsible to prevent unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines and networks.
  • Page 6: Transportation And Storage

    The sales contract contains all obligations on the part of Siemens as well as the complete and solely applicable warranty conditions. Any statements regarding device versions described in the manual do not create new warranties or modify the existing warranty.
  • Page 7: About Siemens' Transducers

    This product is intended for use in industrial areas. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause interference to several frequency based communications. The transducers operate in association with Siemens' ultrasonic level monitoring products by converting electrical pulses that are provided by the transceiver into ultrasonic pulses. When transmitted, these ultrasonic pulses reflect from the material surface and echo back to the transducer.
