Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH accepts no liability for any loss or damage of any kind arising from improper operation of any product, improper handling or use of any replacement part, or from external electrical or mechanical effects, overvoltage or lightning.
Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH extends no express or implied warranty in regard to the applicability of the present document for any purpose other than that described.
Special electrodes are available for media that tend to form greasy films or crusts. To perform flow measurements, the PITe sensor must be operated with a Heinrichs Messtechnik transmitter of the UMF-x series, for example the UMF2 (B). The transmitter UMF2 (B) is a...

(4-20 mA or pulses). The PITe-*** sensor can be operated with all transmitters for magnetic-inductive flow meters manufactured by Heinrichs Messtechnik. The sensor is installed in the pipe while the transmitter is mounted separately in the field for better access.
7 Installation / Conditions of use Installation requirements Screws, bolts, nuts and seals are not supplied by Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH and must therefore be provided by the operator. So not to damage any part of the sensor during installation, only use tools specifically designed for intended purpose.

Heinrichs Messtechnik Installation and Operation Manual PITe Open inlet or outlet When installed at an inlet or an outlet, the device should be installed, where possible, in a siphon. This will ensure that the pipe section fitted with the sensor cannot autonomously drain. The empty pipe detection circuit of the transmitter is an additional safety feature for recognizing empty or partially filled pipes.

Heinrichs Messtechnik Installation and Operation Manual PITe Long pipelines In long pipelines, there is always a danger of pressure surges. Therefore, disturbing elements such as regulating and shut-off devices should be arranged downstream from the sensor. However, when installed in vertical piping, especially when operating at high temperatures, the regulating and shut-off devices should be placed in front of the sensor (danger of vacuum).
Heinrichs Messtechnik Installation and Operation Manual PITe 7.1.2 Immersion depth of PITe-*** in the pipe The weld spigots must be installed so that the sensor head projects 40 mm into the pipeline, regardless of the pipes nominal diameter. Caution: Before welding the socket to the pipe, it is essential that the sensor be removed from the...
Heinrichs Messtechnik Installation and Operation Manual PITe The measuring signal tapped at the electrodes amounts to only a few millivolts. Correct grounding of the electromagnetic flow sensor is therefor essential for achieving exact measurement. The transmitter requires a reference potential to evaluate the measured voltage on the electrodes. The metrological grounding of the medium for PITe is achieved via the wetted part of the sensor tube.
Heinrichs Messtechnik Installation and Operation Manual PITe The electrodes and measuring electronic are referenced to the potential of the functional earth FE of the sensor. FE is not connected to PE, but may be connected in the sensor junction box if wished. If ground disks (earthing rings) are used for grounding purposes, then these must be connected to the functional earth FE.

Heinrichs Messtechnik Installation and Operation Manual PITe If the calibration of the sensor / UMF2 (B) transmitter combination has not been performed by the manufacturer, the necessary settings must be implemented in the transmitter before the sensor can operate correctly. This applies in particular to cases where the sensor has been exchanged, or when the pipe cross-section at the installation site is altered.
