Immediately after PFC is dismounted from the pipeline, install the
clamping plates with the tightening stud (bolt) on PFC covered by
fluoroplastic with the protection rings removed
- Install the simulator in the pipeline instead of PFC.
4.2. On installing the simulator, check mating surfaces for leakage. Replace
gaskets, if necessary. In case that no leakages are found, put the
pipeline into operation.
4.3. Clear the PFC inner channel from sediment and liquid residues before
packing.
5. PUTTING INTO OPERATION
5.1. When putting the flowmeter into operation check the following:
- The flow is in the direction of the arrow located on the flowmeter's body
- Length of the inlet and outlet straight pipe runs corresponds to flow
direction
- The flowmeter and related equipment are connected in accordance with
the selected wiring diagram
- The outputs operate in the preset modes
- Power supply voltage corresponds to the specifications.
5.2. At first power-up or after a long break in operation, the flowmeter is
operational after:
- All hydraulic processes in the pipeline related to changes of flow rate
(draining, filling, flow adjustment etc.) are fully terminated
- PFC is washed by medium for 30 minutes
- The flowmeter is kept powered for 30 minutes.
5.3. To protect the device from unauthorized access during operation, the
cover of BE case may be sealed with hanging seals.
If a bypass is installed, it is necessary to seal its gates in closed
position.
