Mounting Locations and Installation

The Microx Online is a fixed gas detection system and should be installed so
as to provide effective analysis of a process sample, either at end of line or
from a process pipeline or vessel. The Alarm indication thus rendered by the
Microx Online should be able to initiate the following actions as required:
Indication of 'Alarm' level oxygen content.
Shut Down of process or plant.
Alarm relayed back to customer PLC/DCS.
In general, fixed systems should be installed so that maintenance of failure of
one of the instrument does not compromise the safety of the process being
measured.
Factors to take into consideration when choosing a location to mount the
Microx Online:
Location of suitable process sample point.
Visibility of status indicator tower (Light Tower)
Sufficient space on vertical surface or wall for secure mounting and access to
the instrument.
Nature of gas to be measured.
Pressure of gas to be measured at point of sample take-off.
Routing of sample in and exhaust pipework.
The Microx Online has 6mm Bulkhead Compression fittings for Sample In and
Sample Out(Exhaust) pipe work. Typically the Pipework is of Stainless Steel
but flexible PVC or other tube could be used if space limitations or other
factors favour this.
It is the end user's responsibility to ensure the correct and suitable pipe or
tube is used for the installation.
