5.2 Mechanical installation of GasLab Q2

Only proper installation will ensure the secure and smooth operation of the
device.

5.2.1 Location of use and installation

Note, always follow the Ex regulations when using devices or tools in
hazardous areas.
If possible, install the Q2 close to the process gas sampling point to avoid
long lines and to get current measurement values.
You need a width and height of 270x500 mm for the installation (in the
visual field ) and a certain clearance on either side and in front of the Q2 for
maintenance.
The device weighs about 16 kg. Make sure that the installation area has
sufficient stability.
The place of installation, if it is outdoor, must be protected against direct
sunlight and rain e.g. by way of a metal roof. Likewise, a windbreak may be
required when the device is installed in a windy environment with
temperatures below freezing. A sand protection (display cover) of the device
should be used in sandy environments.
Make sure that the device can not be hit by a water jet (e.g. durig cleaning
the plant). Alternatively, installation in a ventilated cabinet is recommended
in extreme environmental conditions. Please contact Elster GmbH for more
information.
The Q2 does not require a separate mounting plate because it contains all of the parts required
to fulfill the measuring task in its flameproof enclosure. Installation can be on a vertical flat surface
(wall / or pannel). To do this, mounting holes with a diameter of 8 mm are provided in the housing.
For fixation, use fasteners of at least the size M6 (M8 recommended) or equivalent for all 4
mounting holes.Suitable counterpart (i.e. Nuts or chemical anchors) may be required depending
on the material and type of the structure to which the unit is mounted.The material of the structure
to which the unit is fixated must be able to withstand a combined vertical load of 1000N on the
four mounting points.
The Q2 must be installed so that the breather is pointing down and the
electrical entries are facing up.
Select an appropriate mounting height for easy viewing and operation, e.g.
from 1.1 m to 1.8 m above the ground.
