Installation
3.1 Safety Precautions
Hazardous areas
Do not disassemble the humidity sensor whilst in the hazardous area or use a
sensor that has a damaged housing in the hazardous area.
3.2. Tools and Test Equipment Required
No special tools are needed.
3.3. Siting Recommendations
Location of Humidity Sensors
Each installation needs to be considered in its own right, with reference to safety
authorities and in compliance with mandatory local safety regulations. The sensor
must be operated in accordance with the User Manual to maintain safety, reliability
and to preserve safety integrity where applicable.
It is important that sensors are located in positions determined in consultation
with those who have specialised knowledge of the plant or installation and of the
principles of humidity. Reference should also be made to those responsible for the
engineering layout and topology of the plant as they will be most familiar with the
nature of the potential dangers and the most likely sources of high humidity.
Sensor coverage cannot be simply expressed in terms of ‘number per unit area’.
Sensors need to be sited where they are capable of monitoring those parts of a
plant where humidity may accumulate or where a source of humidity is expected
to occur. This way, the earliest possible warning of humidity can be given to initiate
shutdown functions, alarm functions or safe evacuation of the premises.
Sensor Management
A very important part of an efficient humidity monitoring system is the training of
plant personnel in operation and maintenance of the sensors and the complete
monitoring system. Training can be provided by qualified Trolex application
engineers.
Once a sensor installation is complete, the sensor locations and types should be
formally recorded and a planned test and maintenance procedure instituted.
