Preparatory steps prior to installation

Depending on the conditions specific to the measuring point (e.g. clamp-on, number of traverses,
fluid, etc.), a number of preparatory steps have to be taken before actually installing the sensors:
1. Determination of the values for the necessary installation distances based on the conditions
specific to the measuring point. A number of methods are available for determining the values:
– Local operation of the device
– FieldCare (operating program), connect a notebook to the transmitter
– Applicator (software), online on the Endress+Hauser Internet site
2. Mechanical preparation of the clamp-on retainers for the sensors:
– Premount the strapping bands (DN 50 to 200 / 2 to 8") or (DN 250 to 4000 / 10 to 160")
– Fix the welded bolts

Determining the necessary installation distances

The installation distances that have to be maintained depend on:
• The type of sensor: P or W (DN 50 to 4000 / 2 to 160"), P or W (DN 15 to 65 / ½ to 2½")
• Type of mounting:
– Clamp-on with strapping band or welded bolt
– Insertion version, installation in the pipe
• Number of traverses or single-path/dual-path version
