3.1 Project planning
The following Table provides an overview of the project planning work necessary as
prerequisite for trouble-free assembly and subsequent device functionality. You can use
this Table as a Checklist and check off the completed steps.
Task Requirements Work step
Determine
measuring
location and
fitting loca-
tions for the
device compo-
nents
Inlet and outlet paths accord-
ing to DIN EN 13284-1 (inlet
at least 5x hydraulic diameter
d
h,
outlet at least 3x d
h
;
distance to stack opening at
least 5x d
h
)
For round and square ducts:
d
h
= duct diameter
●
Follow specifications for new equip-
ment
●
Select best possible location for exist-
ing equipment
●
For too short inlet/outlet paths:
Inlet path > outlet path
For rectangular ducts:
d
h
= 4x cross-section divided by
circumference
Homogeneous flow distribu-
tion
Representative dust distribu-
tion Whenever possible, no deflections,
cross-section variations, feed and
drain lines, flaps or fittings in the area
of the inlet and outlet paths
If conditions cannot be ensured, define
flow profile according to DIN EN 13284-1
and select best possible location
Fitting position for the
sender/receiver unit
Select best possible location
Accessibility, accident
prevention The device components must be easily
and safely accessible Provide platforms or pedestals as
required
Installation free of vibrations Acceleration < 1 g
Eliminate/reduce vibrations through
suitable measures
Ambient conditions
Limit values according to Technical
Data
If necessary:
●
Provide weather hoods/sun protec-
tion
●
Enclose or lag device components
Select the
purge air
supply
Sufficient primary purge air
pressure depending on
internal duct pressure Plan a purge air heater for gas
temperatures close to the dew point or
very low ambient temperatures
Select supply type
Clean intake air
Whenever possible, low amount of
dust, no oil, moisture or corrosive
gases
●
Select best possible location for air
intake
●
Determine required purge air hose
length
Select device
components
Duct wall thickness with
isolation
Flange with tube
Set the immersion depth depending on
the internal duct diameter (
see “Adapt-
ing the sender/receiver unit to the duct
diameter”, page 32
)
If necessary, plan additional measures
to fit the flange with tube (
see “Fitting
the flange with tube”, page 22 )
Internal duct pressure Type of purge air supply
Fitting locations Line and purge air hose lengths
