an easily accessible location. Familiarize yourself with and observe all warning and safety information.

It is the responsibility of the operator of the device to ensure it is used, inspected, and maintained in

accordance with the user manual. Subsequent revisions or instructions from the manufacturer must also be

taken into account in this regard.

The manufacturer reserves the right to modify technical data without prior notice. Your local distributor will

supply you with current information and updates to this document.

Please note:

–The term BioProTTTMFlowMeasurementSystemincludestheowmeter,i.e.theBioProTTTM FlowTrack SL,

and a BioProTTTM Clamp-On SL.

– ThetermBioProTT™FlowTrackSLusuallyreferstothecompleteBioProTTTM FlowMeasurement System

consistingoftheowmeterandanem-tecBioProTTTM Clamp-On SL as well.

–This user manual covers the features of software version V3.1.0.0 and subsequent ones.

1 Intended Purpose and Restrictions

1.1 Intended Purpose

TheBioProTT™FlowMeasurementSystemisdesignedforthenon-invasivemeasurementofvolumetricow

ratesofliquids.Itisusuallyusedinlaboratoryandindustrialprocesseswithintheeldofbioprocessing.The

device must be used with a compatible em-tec sensor. The measurement is based on the ultrasonic transit

time method.

1.2 Usage Restrictions and Limitations

The BioProTTTM FlowTrack SL was developed and is sold for the above-mentioned intended purpose and

use only. The BioProTTTM FlowTrack SL and the BioProTTTM Clamp-On SLs are not intended to be used for the

following purposes/under the following circumstances:

• as medical device

• formeasuringgaseousmediaorexplosiveand/orammableliquids

• for measurements in explosive areas

• for home or consumer use

• for outdoor use

• for legal metrology

• when the housing is damaged

• to control and regulate a safety operation of a plant or equipment, especially those requiring

mandatory surveillance by law

Due to its single-channel structure, the BioProTTTM FlowTrack SL is not a fail-safe system. If applied in safety

critical systems, the user has to consider a partial or complete system failure and is responsible for the

introduction of additional risk measures in their system.

1.3 Liabilities and Responsibilities

It is the responsibility of the user to use, check and maintain the BioProTTTM FlowTrack SL and the

BioProTTTM Clamp-On SL in accordance with this user manual. em-tec GmbH is neither liable nor responsible

for any consequences arising from the use of the BioProTTTM FlowTrack SL and BioProTTTM Clamp-On SL that

donotcomplywiththeoperatingandsafetyinstructionsorthespecicationsinthisdocument.

BioProTT™ FlowTrack SL

1.4 Safety Instructions

•The following safety instructions must be strictly observed and adhered to in order to

ensure a safe handling of the device!

•If the device or its accessories (cables, sensor, etc.) are damaged in any way, they must not

be used. This is especially important if the cable insulation is damaged, or if any parts

have broken off or are bent.

•The power supply unit must not be immersed in liquids at any time and is only to be used

in dry locations.

→In the event of ingress of liquid into the device, immediately disconnect the power and

stop using the device.

•The use of any accessories, power supply units, cables, and sensors other than the

speciedonesisnotpermittedatanytime.

•If longer cables are used, or if more than one sensor line extension cable is used, the

electromagnetic emission of the BioProTTTM FlowMeasurement System could increase or

its immunity to interference could be reduced.

•The BioProTTTM FlowMeasurement System may be inuenced by radio frequency (RF)

devices. This includes mobile RF communication equipment. The use of a RF device in the

vicinity of the BioProTTTM FlowMeasurement System may therefore cause malfunctions of

thecomponentswhich,inturn,couldleadtoinaccurrateorincorrectowvalues.

•The device should not be covered or exposed to direct heat or sun.

•The device must not be opened. Any repairs must be carried out by em-tec GmbH or

authorized service personnel only.

→Unauthorized opening or repair means the warranty will be void.

•The BioProTTTM FlowTrack SL should not come into contact with any chemicals other than

thosespeciedinchapter12"Cleaning and Disinfection".

1.5 Notice Concerning Compulsory Registration

Any major incidents in any ways connected to the product must be immediately reported to the manufacturer.

1.6 Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility

The BioProTTTM FlowMeasurement System was tested according to IEC 61326-1: 2013 (Emission: Class A, Group

1) and IEC 61010-1: 2010 .

Although the requirements of IEC 61326-1: 2013 and IEC 61010-1: 2010 were taken into account during the

development and manufacturing, the user may be at risk if the system and/or any part thereof is used

improperly.

Electrical Installation Requirements

Please follow the general safety information when installing the BioProTTTM FlowMeasurement System. Please

also observe any separate relevant safety and technical information of other electrical components used.

Electromagnetic Compatibility Requirements

Thecustomerhastoensurethattherelevantemissionandimmunityrequirementsofthedeviceconguration

are ensured in accordance with the required standards.

Interference of ultrasonic ow measurements by electromagnetic elds could be possibly identied by

compromisedmeasurementdata,whicharenotrelatedtotherealow.

Please note:

The BioProTTTM Clamp-On SL is not galvanically isolated.

It is important to ensure that the BioProTTTM FlowMeasurement System is not placed near any

disturbance source that is not compliant with the applicable standards since this could

–inuenceandnegativelyaffectthemeasurement.

–impact the data stored on the sensor plug and permanently corrupt it.

Crossed lines and the use of extension cables might impact the data transfer and EMC

compatibility.

1.7 Ultrasonic Safety regarding Acoustic Output

Wheninuse,theconnectedBioProTTTM Clamp-OnSLsproduce verylow-powerultrasonicsignalsat frequencies

between2.25and4MHz.TheemmitedacousticsignalsarewithintherangespeciedinIEC 61157 2 nd ed. and

IEC 60601-2-37 2 nd ed.

Ifusedasspeciedinthisusermanual,theacousticsignalsproducedbytheBioProTTTM FlowTrack SL and

BioProTTTM Clamp-On SL are, according to current knowledge, harmless for people and the environment.
