Installation of signal processing and display devices on the UTN...EX
Top Mounted Level Indicator in explosion risk areas
When attaching the signal processing and display devices (e.g. MG magnetic switch) to the
UTN...EX, the upper limit values of the field device and the UTN...EX must be complied with within
the framework of explosion protection (proof of inherent safety). Laws and guidelines applying to
