Rosemount 708

Reference Manual

00809-0100-4708, Rev AD September 2012

Explosions could result in death or serious injury:

Installation of this transmitter in an explosive environment must be in accordance with the appropriate local, national, and international standards, codes, and practices. Please review the Product Certifications section for any restrictions associated with a safe installation.

•Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, ensure the instruments are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe field wiring practices.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions. This device may not cause harmful interference. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This device must be installed to ensure a minimum antenna separation distance of 20 cm (8 in.) from all persons.

The Power Module may be replaced in a hazardous area. The Power Module has surface resistivity greater than one gigaohm and must be properly installed in the wireless device enclosure. Care must be taken during transportation to and from the point of installation to prevent a potential electrostatic charging hazard.

Polymer enclosure has surface resistivity greater than one gigaohm. Care must be taken during transportation to and from the point of installation to prevent a potential electrostatic charging hazard.

NOTICE

The Rosemount 708 and all other wireless devices should be installed only after the Smart Wireless Gateway has been installed and is functioning properly. Wireless devices should also be powered up in order of proximity from the Smart Wireless Gateway, beginning with the closest. This will result in a simpler and faster network installation.

NOTICE

Shipping considerations for wireless products:

The unit was shipped to you without the power module installed. Please remove the power module prior to shipping.

Each power module contains one “D” size primary lithium battery. Primary lithium batteries are regulated in transportation by the U. S. Department of Transportation, and are also covered by IATA (International Air Transport Association), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), and ARD (European Ground Transportation of Dangerous Goods). It is the responsibility of the shipper to ensure compliance with these or any other local requirements. Please consult current regulations and requirements before shipping.

NOTICE

The power module with the wireless unit contains one “D” size primary lithium/thionyl chloride battery. Each battery contains approximately 5.0 grams of lithium. Under normal conditions, the battery materials are self-contained and are not reactive as long as the battery and the pack integrity are maintained. Care should be taken to prevent thermal, electrical or mechanical damage. Contacts should be protected to prevent premature discharge.

Battery hazards remain when cells are discharged.

Power modules should be stored in a clean and dry area. For maximum battery life, storage temperature should not exceed 30 °C (86 °F).

The Power Module may be replaced in a hazardous area. The Power Module has surface resistivity greater than one gigaohm and must be properly installed in the wireless device enclosure. Care must be taken during transportation to and from the point of installation to prevent electrostatic charge build-up.
