11. Accessories
Always install a shut-off valve, pressure gauge and bypass lines at both inlet
and outlet.
Ball valves, which will not retain condensate, are recommended for inlet and
outlet shut-off valves. The bypass pipe should be at least
1
/
2
of the size of the
inlet (primary side) pipe.
M-COS
has a built-in strainer, however in case an external strainer is installed,
it should be installed ahead of
M-COS
and the strainer should be installed
horizontally with the basket at the 3 or 9 o’clock position in order to prevent
condensate accumulation.

12. Installation of the Controller Unit
Mount the controller unit securely on a wall, etc. with self-tapping screws
inserted in the holes.
The controller is not waterproof. Be sure to install it indoors in a suitable
protected area.
The ambient temperature range specified for the normal operation of the unit is
between 0 and 50 °C. Avoid operation beyond this specified range.
Install the controller unit in a suitable place with low humidity and vibration.
13. Installation of the Pressure Sensor
Install the pressure sensor on or near the steam using equipment on the piping.
Arrange the piping as perpendicularly as practical with the siphon tube
supplied. (Direct mounting of the sensor to the equipment or to the piping may
result in damage to the pressure sensor due to conduction of heat.)
NOTE: The pressure sensor is made to withstand a maximum pressure of
2 times the maximum value of the measurement range.
If there is a possibility that excessive pressure beyond this limit will be
applied to the sensor due to water hammer or otherwise, consult our sales
staff before continuing the installation.
