Clamp-on Sensor GTL720 Electrical installation The electrical connection happens via the M12 round connector. For the wiring see Figure 8 Connection diagram. The device must be installed only by a qualified electrician. The national and international regulations for the installation of electrical systems of the relevant operator country apply.
The device itself cannot be repaired. Replacement of the insertion is possible without process interruption Calibration / Adjustment The GTL720 pipe clamp sensors are tested prior to delivery. Upon request, this sensor can also be delivered with a certificate of calibration. A recalibration in our facilities is also possible.
