Turbimax CUS51D Installation 3.4.2 Pipe installation Arrow 1 shows the flow direction. The installation angle α must not exceed 90°. The recommended installation angle is 90°. The optical windows of the sensor have to be aligned parallel to the flow direction (α = 90°) or face the flow direction (α...
Installation Turbimax CUS51D The following figure illustrates various installation positions in pipes and indicates whether they are permitted or not. a0013011 Fig. 14: Orientation and installation positions (with retractable assembly CUA451) • The pipeline diameter must be at least 100 mm (4") if reflective materials (e.g. stainless steel) are used.
Turbimax CUS51D Wiring Wiring Warning! • The electrical connection must only be carried out by a certified electrician. • Technical personnel must have read and understood the instructions in this manual and must adhere to them. • Prior to beginning any wiring work, make sure voltage is not applied to any of the cables.
Device description Turbimax CUS51D Device description Sensor design The sensor is designed for the continuous in-situ measurement of turbidity and solids content. The sensor is designed as a 40 mm sensor that can be operated directly and completely in the process without the need for further sampling (in situ).

Turbimax CUS51D Device description 5.4.2 Stability criterion During the calibration process, the measured values returned by the sensor are checked to ensure they remain constant. The stability criterion defines the maximum amount the measured values may deviate during calibration and still be accepted.
Device description Turbimax CUS51D Additional calibration points, recalibration Points can be added to an existing calibration. The maximum number of points per data record is also limited to 5 here. In this way, different media or concentrations can be included in the calibration at different times.
Turbimax CUS51D Maintenance Maintenance You have to perform maintenance tasks at regular intervals. We recommend setting the maintenance times in advance in an operations journal or log. The maintenance cycle primarily depends on the system, the installation conditions and the medium in which measurement takes place.
