Flow Sensor SS 20.600
Page 8
Systems with overpressure
Depending on the ordered version, the
SS 20.600
is designed for a maxi-
mum working overpressure of 16 bar (standard) or 40 bar (option).
As long as the medium to be measured is operated with overpressure,
make sure that:
There is no overpressure in the system during mounting.
Mounting and dismounting of the sensor can be carried out only
as long as the system is
in a depressurized state
.
Only suitable pressure-tight mounting accessories are used.
Appropriate safety measures are installed to avoid unintended discard-
ing of the sensor due to overpressure.
For measurements in media with overpressure, appropriate
safety measures must be taken to prevent unintended discard-
ing of the sensor.
If other accessories than the delivered pressure protection kit or alterna-
tive mounting solutions are used, the customer must ensure appropriate
safety measures.
The pressure-tight mounting, the fastening of the screw pipe con-
nection and the discarding protection must be checked before
pressure is applied. These tightness checks must be repeated at
reasonable intervals.
The components of the pressure protection kit (bolt, chain and
bracket) have to be checked regularly for integrity.
