Easidew Transmitter User’s Manual Safety The manufacturer has designed this equipment to be safe when operated using the procedures detailed in this manual. The user must not use this equipment for any other purpose than that stated. Do not apply values greater than the maximum value stated.
Easidew Transmitter User’s Manual Abbreviations The following abbreviations are used in this manual: barg pressure unit (=100 kP or 0.987 atm) gauge ºC degrees Celsius ºF degrees Fahrenheit direct current ft-lbs foot-pound force grams inch(es) µm micrometer m/sec meters per second...
If there are any questions about the instrument or how to install and operate it, please contact a Kahn representative (for Kahn Instruments’ contact information go to www.kahn.com).
Easidew Transmitter User’s Manual INSTALLATION INSTALLATION Unpacking the Instrument On delivery, please check that all the following standard components are in the packing box: • Easidew Transmitter • Bonded Seal • Certificate of Calibration • Connector (for sensor/cable) Unpack the dew-point transmitter box as follows:...
The sensor cable is NOT supplied as standard. A cable can be obtained by contacting Kahn Instruments (see www.kahn.com for details). Cable connection to the Easidew transmitter is made via the removable connector. Removing the central screw enables the connector terminal block to be removed from the outer housing by using a small screwdriver to pry it clear.
Easidew Transmitter User’s Manual INSTALLATION Cable Connection When installing the connector, and to insure that full ingress protection is achieved, the retaining screw (with the O-ring and washer) must be tightened to a minimum torque setting of 2.5 ft-lbs (3.4 Nm). The sensor cable used must be a minimum diameter of 0.2”...
(handle the transmitter by the main body only, avoiding contact with the sensor guard). The Easidew can be mounted into either a flow-through sensor sampling block (optional) or directly inserted into a pipe or duct and can be operated at pressures of up to 5000 psig when installed with the bonded seal provided.
Easidew Transmitter User’s Manual INSTALLATION 2.5.1 Transmitter Mounting - Sample Block (Optional) The following procedure must be carried out by a qualified installation technician. To mount the transmitter into the sensor block (preferred method), proceed as follows, refer to Figure 7.
Easidew Transmitter User’s Manual INSTALLATION 2.5.2 Transmitter Mounting - Direct Pipeline Connection The transmitter may be directly mounted into a pipe or duct, as shown in Figure 8 CAUTION: Do not mount the transmitter too close to the bottom of a bend where any condensate in the pipeline might collect and saturate the probe.
Calibration Routine maintenance of the Easidew is confined to regular re-calibration by exposure of the Easidew to sample gases of known moisture content to ensure that the stated accuracy of the Easidew is maintained. Calibration services traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are provided by Kahn Instruments.
