Installation
Preparation
Prepare the site in accordance to the Siemens Milltronics drawing(s) provided. If no
drawings were provided or if there is confusion or doubt as to the Milltronics Millflo's
installation, please consult your Siemens Milltronics representative.
When unpacking the Millflo, avoid subjecting the unit to mechanical shock. Excessive
mechanical shock can cause damage to the housing or load cell/sensing plate assembly.
The Millflo is generally shipped assembled with the sensing plate arrested to prevent
damage to the load cell.
The Millflo should be visually inspected for shipping damage. If damage is suspected,
contact your Siemens Milltronics representative and the shipping carrier.
When handling the Millflo, ensure the shipping stop is in place to secure the sensing
plate. Never subject the Millflo to shock by hitting it when trying to position it.
Welding
WARNING: Use extreme caution when arc welding in the area of the flowmeter to
ensure that no welding current flows through the flowmeter, risking destruction of
the load cell.
Remove the sensing plate and load cell before welding.
Load Cell Handling
The load cell tolerates very little negative displacement, or it may be functionally
destroyed. When handling the load cell, care must be taken not to force the gap open.
SUPPORT LOAD CELL THROUGHOUT HANDLING IN NON-VERTICAL POSITIONS.
IMPROPER HANDLING MAY FUNCTIONALLY DESTROY LOAD CELL
