ESCAPING FLUIDS HAZARD
The purchaser of the meter is responsible for the selection of Daniel components/seals and materials 
compatible with the chemical properties of the measurement fluid.
Failure to select suitable meter components/seals may cause escaping fluids, resulting in injury or equipment 
damage.
