The better indicative monitors, such as Energy Tech 301, have an analogue and RS485 output that can be used to constantly record the output from the instrument and enable the operator to review the results and identify impending filter failure at an early stage.
So it can be seen that although tribo-electric probes are affected by changes in velocity and particle size distribution, in practice, the amount of drift this induces may be very small and inconsequential for indicative systems. If your application is subject to massive swings in velocity, consult Codel for advice.
The key feature of the unit is its compactness, as all the electronics and display are contained within the head. Furthermore, the Energy Tech 301 is designed to be easy to install and commission.
Energy Tech 301 where the display can be easily seen by plant operators Avoid mounting Energy Tech 301 on a vertical duct that vents to atmosphere as it may be affected by rain ingress. Figure 2: Energy Tech 301 - Preferred Locations...

Technical Manual Mounting Figure 3: Energy Tech 301 - Alternative Strategies Installing the Mounting Stub WARNING !!!!!! We strongly advise that the dust collector be turned off, especially when drilling holes or welding the stub. The duct may be under pressure and debris and air under pressure will be ejected through any hole and could damage eyes or may be swallowed.

Paint the stub with a suitable corrosion resistant paint, prior to mounting the Energy Tech 301. If the stack wall is thin gauge and will not weld easily or will not bear the weight of the probe, follow the method below.

Mounting the Sensor The Energy Tech 301 itself is supplied in two parts, the head and the probe. Cable and cable plugs are supplied as loose items. First attach the probe to the head by placing the threaded end (it’s an ordinary RH thread) through the brass fitting and screw in place.

Technical Manual Figure 7: Mains Connector Output connector Separate the two halves of the output connector (it has 7 plugs), by holding the body and unscrewing the end containing the pins. Feed the cable through the body via the compression nut. Carefully remove the cable clamp (it is a tension fit).

6. Commissioning WARNING !!!!!! In order to commission the Energy Tech 301, it is necessary to work closely with mains voltages. Only trained and competent persons should commission this unit using insulated tools and wearing the appropriate safety equipment. The technician should acquaint himself with site safety instructions and proceed with due caution.

Processes that involve conductive particulate, condensed moisture or acidic emissions are particularly prone to this problem. The result of bridging is usually a high dust alarm. The Energy Tech 301 is fitted with an insulated sleeve to significantly reduce the incidence of bridging.

Just return the instrument to Codel for repair. The Energy Tech 301 has a diagnostic socket that enables Codel to communicate with the unit and establish the fault. The electronics package will then be repaired or a new package fitted.
