Remove all the protective packaging materials, and ensure that the LRW
®
sensor was not damaged during transit.
The following items are provided with the KAM
®
LRW
®
sensor:
One (1) RS232 communication cable, for connecting your PC to the LRW
One (1) USB-to-serial converter, in case your computer does not have an RS232 serial port
Please ensure you have received these items and store them properly, they will be used for initial startup and
operation of the LRW sensor.
REMINDER: Please refer to the Installation Flow Requirements on page 5 of this manual to ensure proper sensor
placement where at all possible.
In installations below -4°C where the LRW is exposed to an open environment, KAM CONTROLS recommends
operators insulate the LRW, and if the pipeline is heated, that the heating trace be extended to include the LRW.
If pipeline flow is going to be stopped for an extended amount of time and the pipeline is not heated, then the LRW
should be removed from the line to avoid damage to the sensor from freezing water.
Flow through (spool) units will be shipped
partially assembled. LRW unit can be wired prior
to insertion into the spool for convenience, but
this is not required.
For 2" units (FIG. 3-1):
1.
Grease around the O-ring below the small
flange.
2.
Insert LRW body into the spool and ensure
unit is fully seated.
NOTE: LCD screen face should be aligned
with direction of pipe flow.
3.
Using a 5/8" Allen wrench, install (8) hex
screws around the circumference of the
flange until tight. Screw manual sample
probe into valve until tight.
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
LRW FLOW THROUGH ASSEMBLY
For 3" and 4" flow through units (FIG. 3-2):
1.
Screw LRW body into spool using 1 3/4"
wrench flat. KAM Controls recommends
using liquid pipe sealant rather than Teflon
tape.
2.
Screw manual sample probe into valve
until tight.
