Environmental Compliance Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive GE Measurement & Control Solutions is an active participant in Europe’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) take-back initiative, directive 2012/19/EU. The equipment that you bought has required the extraction and use of natural resources for its production. It may contain hazardous substances that could impact health and the environment.
This section contains information and instructions for installing the moisture.IQ into a process system, while taking into account all of the above factors. The following section describes how to set up and connect the moisture.IQ. If you have questions about the installation procedures, contact our technical support department. See the rear cover of this manual for contact information.
Observe all normal safety precautions. Use the probes within their maximum pressure and temperature ratings. • Although the moisture.IQ may not need to be accessed during normal operation, install the electronics unit at a convenient location for programming, testing and servicing. A control room or instrument shed are typical locations.
It will also perform well under gas flow conditions as high as 10,000 cm/sec and liquid flow conditions up to 10 cm/sec. Refer to GE document #916-064, Basic GE Sensing Hygrometry Principles, for maximum flow rates in gases and liquids.
The sensor will operate properly in a multitude of gaseous or non-conductive liquid environments. 1.5.7 Corrosive Materials Avoid all materials that are corrosive or otherwise damaging to aluminum or aluminum oxide. These include strongly acidic or basic materials and primary amines. moisture.IQ User’s Guide...
The purpose of a sample system is to condition or control a sample stream to within the specifications of a probe. The application requirements determine the design of the sample system. GE applications engineers will make recommendations based on the following general guidelines.
Chapter 1. Installation and Wiring 1.6.2 Oxygen Sample Systems Oxygen sample systems are required and can be ordered from GE for bench or wall mounting. You can also build your own sample system by using the following guidelines. IMPORTANT: The GE warranty will be voided if the sample system does not have a relief valve.
1.7.2 Mounting a Sample System GE sample systems are normally fastened to a metal plate that has four mounting holes. GE can also provide the sample system in an enclosure, if requested. In either case, fasten the sample system plate or enclosure with bolts in the mounting holes at each of the four corners.
Screw the probe into cell, making sure not to cross thread it, and tighten it securely. Figure 4 below shows a typical moisture probe installation, with the probe mounted in a GE sample cell. Install any moisture probes with different fittings in the appropriate manner.
2. Replace the probe with an probe. MISP2 3. Using GE adapter cable 704-1362-00, shown in Figure 5 above, connect one end of the cable to the TF-Series probe and connect the other end to the existing cable connector. TF-Series TF-Series 4.
M-Series MISP2 2. Replace the probe with an probe. MISP2 3. Using GE adapter cable 704-1649-00, connect one end of the cable to the probe and connect the other M-Series end to the existing cable connector. M-Series M-Series 4.
1.8.5 Delta F Oxygen Cell Although the moisture.IQ accepts other oxygen devices as auxiliary inputs, it is designed to accept oxygen inputs directly from the Delta F Oxygen Cell. There are three steps for installing the Delta F Oxygen Cell: 1.
Page 23
Make sure the venting system does not create a back pressure on the oxygen cell. Note: The vented sample will not be corrosive if you install and operate the cell properly. moisture.IQ User’s Guide...
WARNING! The stainless steel Weatherproof enclosure must be grounded. To open a Weatherproof moisture.IQ unit, use a large, flat-bladed screwdriver to turn the latch on the enclosure cover. To open an Explosion-Proof moisture.IQ unit, remove all 24 bolts from around the periphery of the enclosure cover. Do not open an Explosion-Proof moisture.IQ unit that is energized.
Proper connections and cabling are extremely important for accurate measurement. Use the correct cable type for each probe and make sure the cables are not damaged during installation. See the sections which follow for specific connection instructions. moisture.IQ User’s Guide...
1.9.3 Connecting Moisture Probes The moisture.IQ uses M-Series and Moisture Image Series probes to measure moisture. If you need to connect a different probe type, please contact our technical support department. If you ordered one or more M-Series probes with the moisture.IQ, GE has entered the necessary probe setup data on a pre-assigned channel.

However, you should verify that the calibration data entered at the factory is correct (see “The Probe Configuration Screen” on page 58). If you sent only the sensor part of the original Moisture Image Series probe to GE (without the module), you must enter the calibration data manually.
To perform this calibration check you must have a calibration gas with a known PPMv value and a sample system with a calibration gas inlet valve. Proceed as follows: Note: GE recommends a span calibration gas be 80-100% of the span of the sensor’s overall range in a background of nitrogen (e.g., 80-100 PPM O...
If this oxygen cell is used in a background gas other than nitrogen, you must enter the gas’s correction factor, as listed in Table 10 on page 90. Then, the moisture.IQ will apply the appropriate correction to the measured oxygen signal.
