General information
3.2.1
Delivery
The FLOWSIC600-XT is delivered preassembled in sturdy packaging.
▸
Inspect for transport damage when unpacking the device.
▸
Document any damage found and report this to the manufacturer.
▸
Check the scope of delivery for completeness.
The standard scope of delivery comprises:
– Measuring system FLOWSIC600-XT (meter body with Signal Processing Unit and
sensors),
– Program FLOWgate for operating, configuration and diagnostics,
– Operating Instructions,
– Device documentation.
▸
Check that the identifiers on the Signal Processing Unit and meter body (type plates)
match the operating conditions.
3.2.2
Transport
During all transport and storage work:
▸
Ensure the FLOWSIC600-XT is always well secured.
▸
Take measures to prevent mechanical damage.
▸
Ensure the ambient conditions are within the specified limits.
3.2.3
Water pressure test in the plant (optional)
Consultation with SICK is mandatory when an inspection of the plant in which a
FLOWSIC600-XT is installed is to be carried out by means of water pressure. SICK
evaluates and checks the inquiry as to whether the installed ultrasonic transducers can
withstand the planned water pressure or whether they need to be replaced with so-called
blind plugs. Forward the following information to
: The meter serial
number and the pressure planned for this check.
If it is determined that the sensors cannot withstand the pressure, dummy plugs must be
installed instead. SICK will make a recommendation for the dummy plugs as well as for the
corresponding O-rings to be used for the water pressure test (dummy plugs and O-rings
must be ordered separately!).
The installation instructions for the dummy plugs can be found in the FLOWSIC600-XT
Service Manual.
NOTICE:
Do not put the FLOWSIC600-XT into operation if you notice any damage!
NOTICE:
The plant operator must ensure that the upper/lower limit values shown on
the type plate are not overflown or underflown in operation.
