3.3 Mounting Instructions
Please pay attention to the following instructions, in order that you may measure
correctly and avoid damage to the equipment.
Mounting position (any)
a) Vertical mounting:
Optimal, with the flow upwards.
Entrained solid particles sink and
lighter fatty elements in the
stationary medium rise away from
the electrodes.
b) Horizontal mounting:
The axis of the electrodes must
be horizontal, thus preventing brief
insulation of the electrodes by
entrained air bubbles.
Electrode axis
The plane in which the electrode axis
lies with regard to the Promag 30
measuring transmitter is identical for
the measuring sensors A, D, F and
Promag H also.
Vibration
Fasten the piping before and after the
sensor.
Caution!
Excessive vibration necessitates
separate mounting of the sensor and
transmitter (see chapter 3.6).
With free runs of piping over 10 m long,
we recommend mechanical supports.
