3.2.4 Installation conditions for density and concentration
measurement
Conditions
• If possible, density and concentration should be measured at vertical pipes with a feed direction
from bottom to top.
• If only horizontal pipes are accessible, the path of the ray should also be arranged horizontally to
reduce the influence of air bubbles and sediments.
• The Endress+Hauser clamping device (see chapter "Accessories") or an equivalent clamping
device should be used for fastening the radiation source container and the Gammapilot M to the
measuring tube.
The clamping device must be installed in a way such that it can withstand the weight of the
radiation source container
Configuration of the measuring system
The configuration of the source container and the Gammapilot M depends on the pipe diameter (or
the length of the irradiated measuring path respectively) and the measuring range. These two
parameters determine the measuring effect (relative change of the pulse rate). The measuring effect
increases with the length of the radiation path through the medium. Therefore, diagonal irradiation
or application of a measuring path is necessary for small pipe diameters.
For the configuration of the measuring system please contact your Endress+Hauser sales
organisation or use the "Applicator"
