4. Start of operation
4.1 Hints on flow rate measurement
The measured fluid should neither consist of a multi-phase mixture nor contain ferrite ingredients or large solid
mass particles.
The RAKD scale is adjusted to the state of operation/aggregation of the measured fluid by the manufacturer.
If the state of operation changes, it might become necessary to replace the scale.
This depends on several factors:
• If the RAKD is operated in the given viscosity independent range, only the density of the float as well as the
operational density of the previous and new substance have to be considered. In case the operational
density only changes marginally (≤ 0.5 %), the present scale can be used.
• If the RAKD is operated outside the given viscosity independent range, the viscosities at the previous and
new state of operation as well as the mass and diameter of the float have to be taken into account.
To establish a new scale, please contact your Yokogawa representative.
4.2 Pulsation and pressure shock
To avoid damage of the float and the stopper do not use magnetic valves. During start up increase the flow
slowly to the desired flow rate. If a sudden rise of the pressure can not be avoided (with use of magnetic valves)
the flow must be limited to the maximum used value (e.g. by valve).
It is recommended to install pipe valves behind the device.
4.3 Start of operation of electronic transmitter
Ensure that the device has been connected correctly according to section 3.2 and that the used power supply
meets the requirements indicated on the scale.
Switch on the power supply.
The RAKD is now ready for operation.
The transmitter is prepared and calibrated according to its model code as a 2 wire unit.
