Mounting of ULTRAFLOW® 54 electronics box
At medium temperature below 90 °C and at medium temperature above ambient
temperature the electronics box can be mounted directly on the flow sensor housing via the
factory mounted fitting.
If the flow sensor is vertically mounted, the cable connections of the electronics box will be
horizontally oriented. This is permitted. If the cable connections should preferably point
downwards, the electronics box can be mounted via the enclosed distance piece, which
moves the box approx. 170 mm away from the flow sensor housing. Alternatively, a shorter
distance piece, which only moves the box approx. 45 mm away from the flow sensor housing,
can be used. The short distance piece must be ordered separately (6561-332).
At medium temperature above 90 °C the temperature is too high for the electronics box to
be mounted directly on the flow sensor housing.
Therefore, the electronics box must be mounted via the enclosed distance piece. The cable
connections must always point downwards. (See
paragraph 7.3.1
Alternatively, the electronics box can be wall mounted as long as the distance to flow sensor
housing and pipe installation is minimum 170 mm.
It can also be an advantage to use the enclosed distance piece if the flow sensor housing is
insulated and the electronics box must be removed from the insulation.
If the required position of the electronics box differs from standard position, the distance
piece can be mounted with the enclosed collar band around the flow sensor housing.
However, please note that the cable connections must always point downwards. (See
paragraph 7.3.1
At medium temperature below ambient temperature (typically in cooling installations) it is
important to take action to avoid condensation in the electronics box.
Therefore, the electronics box must be mounted via the enclosed distance piece.
The cable connections must always point downwards. (See
paragraph 7.3.1
If ULTRAFLOW® is insulated, the electronics box must be kept out of the insulation.
Alternatively, the electronics box can be wall mounted as long as the distance to flow sensor housing and pipe installation
is minimum 170 mm.
Furthermore, when mounting the electronics box please make sure that the cable connections on the box are at a higher
level than the cable connection on the flow sensor housing.
By vertical mounting of ULTRAFLOW® 54 in a riser this can be secured by mounting the distance piece by means of the
collar band as shown in
