the  hub  and  spectrometer  body  to  permit  clamping  to  process  pipework.  For  technical 
drawings, contact Keit at [email protected]

It is important to follow these instructions completely to ensure safe use of the flanged probe.

5.3.1.  Safety 

 

WARNING 

The flange and hub form a seal with the process pipework and as 
such are safety critical to prevent an accidental discharge of the 
process  media.  Keit  recommends  regular  inspection  of  the 
integrity of the welds on the front and rear in line with local safety 
procedures.  

 

CAUTION 

The spectrometer weighs ~18kg. The flange must not be used to 
support  the  instrument  on  process  pipework.  Doing  so  risks 
damage  to  the  spectrometer  and  excess  stress  on  the  piping 
system. 

 

WARNING 

Pipe  flanges’  permitted  working  pressures  are  temperature 
dependent in accordance with the relevant standard (ANSI/ASME 
B16.5 or EN 1092-1).
