2.2.3.2 Mounting/Dismounting the pipe component
• When mounting the pipe components, make sure that the flow direction is in accordance with the marking.
• Observe the respective welding regulations when welding in a weld-on adapter. Do not apply more heat than
absolutely necessary to avoid that the sealing face of the mounting flange gets distorted.
• When mounting a pipe component insert a flat flange gasket between the two pipe flanges. The gasket must
be intact and resistant to the conducted substances.
• Prior to mounting always check the pipe component or transducer incl. the gaskets for possible damage.
• Make sure that the pipe components are not twisted when they are mounted.
• Use the appropriate screws with the required strength and dimensions for screwing the flanges together.
• Fasten the flange screws evenly and with the appropriate torque specified for the built-in gasket.
• After mounting the pipe components, close the insertion pipe with an appropriate blind flange with gasket, or
close the existing stop valve, if applicable.
2.2.3.3 Mounting/Dismounting the transducer
• When mounting the transducer make sure that its specifications are in accordance with the specifications of
the measuring point.
• Exclusively use the flawless, media-resistant gasket seal delivered with the transducer for mounting. Do not
use a flat packing.
• The gasket is to be inserted into the provided groove of the flowmeter primary.
• Handle the transducer with care when inserting it into the pipe. Make sure that the sensor unit is not damaged.
• The flowmeter primary is to be firmly bolted together with the lock nut of the insertion connection.
2.2.3.4 Potential risks that may occur during operation
• The surfaces of parts run through by hot fluids may get very hot. Do not touch. Otherwise, there is a risk of
being burnt.
• Aggressive fluids may cause corrosion or abrasion which may result in leakage of fluids under pressure.
• The flange or process gaskets may become leaky due to material fatigue. Media under pressure might escape
then.
WARNING
!
An uncontrolled escaping of the measuring fluid poses a danger to life and/or health.
