3. Installation
3.1 Installation Location
Select a location that offers optimum measuring conditions. The oil must be able to circulate freely around the sensing element.
Mount the sensor directly into the circulating system and not into a reservoir.
3.2 Installing the Probe directly into the Process
When installing a probe directly into the process, there should be a stop valve on both sides of the point of installation.
This makes it easy to remove the sensor for maintenance and calibration.
Step 1:
Install the probe with the stop valves closed.
It is not permitted to use a sealing ring with a NPT 1/2" thread.
Appropriate PTFE sealing tape or sealant should be used instead.
Step 2:
Insert the probe into the process and screw it as tight as possible by hand.
Step 3:
If there is a sealing ring, check it for correct centring and tighten the
screw connection with a torque of 30 Nm.
