11. Precautions and Warnings
• Check if the specifications of the transmitter meet the needs of the process conditions
• When the Series 2000-SAN is used as a level transmitter, be aware of the place where the transmitter is mounted.
Here are some suggestions:
1.
DO NOT
mount a level transmitter in- or near filling or discharging pipes.
2. In case of automatic cleaning systems or hand cleaning: never point the water jets on the diaphragm, take necessary steps
to avoid this. Guarantee will not be granted.
• When the Series 2000 is used as a pressure transmitter, be aware of the following points:
1. Rapid closing valves in combination with high flow velocity will cause water hammer (spikes) and can destroy the
transmitter.
DO NOT
mount a transmitter near such valves, always a few pipe bends away up or down stream
(avoid suction).
2. Install a pressure transmitter a few pipe bends away from pumps, as well on the suction or pressure side of the pump.
• WELDING INFORMATION:
When using the Series 2000 or 2000-SAN code “W” the welding information on page 4 must be followed exactly. This is very
important to prevent distortion of the weld-on nipples. It also prevents the screw thread from the Series 2000-SAN (M56 x 1,25) from
being deformed.
• The diaphragm of the transmitter is protected with a special protection cap. Protect the diaphragm until installation takes place, to
prevent damaging of the diaphragm.
• As soon as the wiring is brought inside through the PG9 cable gland and connected to the terminal board, make sure the cable
gland is tightly fixed, so that moisture cannot enter into the electronic housing.
• Avoid high pressure water-jets pointed at the venting.a
• If the ambient conditions are very wet, we advise to use a venting through the cable. A special vented cable can be delivered on
request. (The normal venting will be removed)
• Turn the covers (1 and 3) hand-tight, so that moisture cannot enter into the electronic housing.
•
