  • Page 49: Determining A Location

    Refer to the information in "Technical data" (Page 201). Note Material compatibility Siemens can provide you with support concerning selection of sensor components wetted by process media. However, you are responsible for the selection of components. Siemens accepts no liability for faults or failures resulting from incompatible materials.
  • Page 50: Orientation Of The Sensor

    Installing/mounting 4.4 Sensor installation Location in the system The optimum location in the system depends on the application: ● Liquid applications Gas or vapor bubbles in the fluid may result in erroneous measurements, particularly in the density measurement. – Do not install the flowmeter at the highest point in the system, where bubbles will be trapped.
  • Page 51 Orienting the sensor The sensor operates in any orientation. The optimal orientation depends on the process fluid and the process conditions. Siemens recommends orienting the sensor in one of the following ways: 1. Vertical installation with an upwards flow (self-draining)
  • Page 52 Installing/mounting 4.4 Sensor installation Note Hygienic applications In 3A and EHEDG certified hygienic applications the flowmeter must be installed vertically as shown in 1 above. Installation in a drop line Installation in a drop line is only recommended if a pipeline reduction or orifice with a smaller cross-section can be installed to create back-pressure and prevent the sensor from being partially drained while measuring.
  • Page 53: Mounting The Sensor

    Installing/mounting 4.4 Sensor installation 4.4.4 Mounting the sensor NOTICE Incorrect mounting The device can be damaged, destroyed, or its functionality impaired through improper mounting. • Before installing ensure there is no visible damage to the device. • Make sure that process connectors are clean, and suitable gaskets and glands are used.
  • Page 54 Installing/mounting 4.4 Sensor installation Avoid vibrations ● Make sure that any valves or pumps upstream of the sensor do not cavitate and do not send vibrations into the sensor. ● Decouple vibrating pipeline from the flow sensor using flexible tube or couplings. Figure 4-7 Non-flexible pipes not recommended in vibrating environment Figure 4-8...
  • Page 55: Hydrostatic Testing

    The selection of pressure guard solution is the responsibility of the user, however Siemens recommends the following forms of pressure guard: ● A pressure switch screwed directly or piped into one of the purge ports and connected to an automatic shut-off valve will disable pressurized supply to the meter.
  • Page 56 Installing/mounting 4.4 Sensor installation The pressure switch and relief valve set point should be 2-3 bar gauge. The pressure switch should be rated to withstand the full process pressure and temperature for a short time without rupture. CAUTION Drain flow Ensure the drain flow is safely contained away from personnel and other plant or equipment.

  • Page 190 Troubleshooting/FAQs 12.2 Troubleshooting sensor-related problems Step 1: Inspecting the application Ensure that: 1. The sensor is installed as described in Installing/mounting (Page 41). 2. The sensor is located in a vibration-free position. Vibrations can disturb the sensor and therefore cause measurement error. Depending on application, you should furthermore ensure the following: ●...
  • Page 191 Troubleshooting/FAQs 12.2 Troubleshooting sensor-related problems Calculating the measurement error Given the Zero Point Standard Deviation, the error expected for different flow rates can be calculated, without performing time-consuming measurements. So using this formula, one can assess if the application can be used as–is, or whether to use more time improving the installation.
  • Page 192 Troubleshooting/FAQs 12.2 Troubleshooting sensor-related problems As can be seen, in this case it is not so important that the standard deviation is 1 kg/h. The error due to the zero point is only 0.1% for a flowrate of 1000 kg/h, and even less for a higher flowrate. So for this installation with the given flowrate and zero point error (Zero Point Standard Deviation value), you should typically choose not to spend more time finding ways to improve the application.
  • Page 193 Troubleshooting/FAQs 12.2 Troubleshooting sensor-related problems Air in the liquid When air is present in the liquid, the zero point becomes unstable, which leads to a poor measurement accuracy. Checking for air: ● Check the Driver Current (View → Device Diagnostics → Advanced Diagnostic) ●...

    Glossary BRIX Degrees Brix (symbol °Brix) is a measurement of the mass ratio of dissolved sugar to water in a liquid. A 25 °Bx solution is 25% (w/w), with 25 grams of sugar per 100 grams of solution. Coriolis The Coriolis effect is an apparent deflection of moving objects from a straight path when they are viewed from a rotating frame of reference.
