SERIES 2000-RANGE-VALVE
Precautions and Warnings
We herewith give a list of some precautions and warnings concerning the application and installation of the electronic pressure – and
level transmitters, SERIES-RANGE-VALVE
• Check if the specifications of the transmitter meet the needs of the process conditions
BE SURE THE VALVE IS CLOSED WHEN TRANSMITTERIS RETRACTED FROM VALVE
• When the Series 2000-RANGE-VALVE 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-RANGE-VALVE 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 ADVISEMENT:
When using the SERIES 2000-RANGE-VALVE the welding advisements on page 4/5/6 must be followed exactly. This is very
important to prevent distortion of the weld spud.
• The diaphragm of the SERIES 2000-RANGE-VALVE 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.
• NEVER unscrew the venting(3), because it is especially designed to prevent moisture from entering into the electronic housing. 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.
• Avoid high pressure water-jets pointed at the venting.
• Turn the cover (1) hand-tight, so that moisture cannot enter into the electronic housing.
•
