General description

NOTICE
Wrong assembly
Wrong assembly can damage the asset or the SITRANS MS200.
• Carefully read the safety instructions before mounting.
SITRANS MS200 has an M8 female thread for the installation, see chapter Dimension drawings
SITRANS MS200 (Page 74).
For thread M8:
• minimum screw-in depth 5,5 mm
• maximum screw-in depth 13 mm
• screw-in torque min. 18 Nm and max. 20 Nm
• screw-in material stainless steel
Use an anaerobic adhesive thread locker.
SITRANS MS200 can be mounted in various ways utilizing its threaded M8 hole. As examples for
mounting you can:
• directly mount SITRANS MS200 to an existing stud bolt
• use a short threaded bolt to mount SITRANS MS200 to a threaded hole
• use a clamp shell to mount SITRANS MS200 to a pipe
In all cases a strong and form-fitting mount for good vibrations transmission is required.
Note
For temporary mountings (e.g. testing purposes) you can also use a strong magnet or an
industry graded glue to mount SITRANS MS200.
Note
Mount SITRANS MS200 so that the lid can be easily removed in the mounted state for a
later battery pack replacement (Page 58).

Note
Influences on data transmission
The positioning of the sensors and the gateway as well as the environmental conditions
influence the data transmission between SITRANS MS200 and SITRANS CC220. In case of an
unfavorable constellation, transmission losses may occur.
