Page 12: Introduction
3 General to Mixer Applications A significant benefit of the Hydronix system is that only one sensor is required in the mixer. However, it is important that it is positioned correctly in relation to the mixer type, material and water inlets, and other moving parts such as blades and paddles. -
Page 13: General Mounting Advice
When installing the sensor in a curved surface, ensure that the centre of the ceramic disc is radius of the internal wall flush with the Figure 3: Curved Surface Installation (Fixing Plate and Clamp Ring Not Shown) Hydro-Mix HT Mechanical Installation Guide HD0766 Rev 1.2.0 13... -

Hydronix recommends the use of the Hydronix Ducting System (DSVHT or DSAHT) when installing the Hydro-Mix HT into ducting (Figure 8). The systems are designed for use in vertical (DSVHT) or angled ducting (DSAHT). Contact Hydronix for further details about the available ducting systems. -
Page 16: Figure 9: Hydro-Mix Ht Integrated In A Duct
A material flow rate of minimum 1kg/sec (3.54 ton/hour (long)) is used. Figure 9 shows the Hydro-Mix HT integrated into a duct. The outlet dimensions will need to be adjusted to suit each application to provide a suitable flow rate and a minimum of 100mm of material above the sensor. -
Page 17: Installing The Sensor
Chapter 1 8 Installing the Sensor These instructions refer to installing the Hydro-Mix HT on a flat surface; all other installation locations use the same mounting arrangement. Each sensor is supplied with a Clamp Ring. When attached this allows the sensor to be connected to the Fixing Plate which is welded externally or flush to the floor or wall of the installation location. -
