The flow sensor is intended to be used for the measurement of air and other non-corrosive gases in pipelines only. Consult the factory first before the measurement of wet or filthy gases. The design of the flow sensor allows for the EE772 to be installed in a pressurized system up to PN40 – is 40 bar (580 psi).
Consequential damages are excluded from the any liability. 1.2. Environmental Aspects The products from E+E Elektronik are developed and designed in due consideration to the importance of the ® protection of the environment. Therefore, disposal of the product also should not lead to pollution of the environment.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The flow sensor of the series EE772, based on the measurement principle of thermal mass flow, is suited for the measurement of flow of air and gases in pipelines. Measurement of for instance the consumption of com- pressed air, nitrogen, CO or other non-corrosive and non-flammable gases.
INSTALLATION 3.1. Mounting Dimensions EE772-T19 / EE772-T20 EE772-T3 Compact Remote probe (4.53) (5.71) The bottom part of the housing is mounted with 4 screws (not in the scope of supply). Max. screw diameter: 4.5 mm (0.17 inch) e.g. 4.2 x 38 mm DIN 7938H Screws cable gland M16x1.5...
3.2. Determining Installation Site • The installation site should be easy accessible and free of vibrations and shocks. • Observe at least 260 mm (10.24 inch) clearance above the housing with the signal conditioning, in order to be able to remove the sensing probe if necessary. •...
3.4. Required Length of Straight Pipe The flow sensor should be installed as far as possible from disturbances of the flow. The causes for distur- bance of the flow are for instance, reducers, elbows, T-pieces, valves, gate valves, etc. The specified meas- urement accuracy can be achieved only when the following straight inlet and outlet pipe lengths are installed: •...
3.5. Assembly of the Measurement Section In order to install or remove the gauge mounting block, the pipeline system should be depressurized. • All connections to be made with appropriated sealing material on the threads. • The sealing material should not change the area of the inner cross section of the pipe. It must be warranted that the connections after installation are free of leaks.
3.6.2. Installation of the Sensing Probe into the Gauge Mounting Block Make sure that the pipe line is depressurized! Make sure that the pipe line is depressurized! • Remove transport protection cap of the head of the sensing probe. • Mount the sensing probe in the gauge mounting block in such a way that the alignment pin fits in the recess on the gauge mounting block.
3.6.3. Installation of the Sensing Probe into the Gauge Mounting Block with Hot Tap Valve The gauge mounting block with hot tap valve allows for the instalment and removal of the sensing probe under pressure, without interrupting the process flow. Operate the gauge mounting block with hot tap valve only with the hand, without tools! Functionallity: Position OPEN - MEASURE: The sensor head is immersed into the pipe.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Important note: The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for personal injuries or damage to property as a result of incorrect handling, installation, wiring, power supply and maintenance of the device. Before electrical connections are made turn off the power supply first. If not observed the electronics can be damaged as a result.
4.2. Bus Output (Optional) 4.2.1. M-Bus (Meter-Bus) The M-Bus (Meter Bus) is a field bus for recording consumption data. Transmission is carried out serially on a reverse polarity protected two-wire line. The flow sensor as M-Bus slave requires a separate supply voltage. No specific topology (line or star) is prescribed for the cabling.
