Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications described in the catalog and in the relevant technical documentation. If products and components from other manufacturers are used, these must be recommended or approved by Siemens. Proper transport, storage, installation, assembly, commissioning, operation and maintenance are required to ensure that the products operate safely and without any problems.
Note • The SITRANS AS100 is to be used only in the manner outlined in this manual • This product is intended for use in industrial areas. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause interference to several frequency based communications Features •...
• joints and interfaces attenuate the acoustic emission levels. • minimal temperature variation where acoustic emission levels are weak. • location should provide sufficient response time in alarm or control circuit. e.g. loss of bearing lubrication, plug chute detection.

Mounting Note • To ensure the most ideal location, test the SITRANS AS100 by clamping the Sensor to the application, and running a trial period to determine the system's performance. The acoustic emission level can be monitored by a voltmeter across the analog output. Refer to Interconnection (Page 11).

• If welding, weld must be a continuous bead. Tacking does not provide sufficient acoustical coupling. • Do not arc weld on equipment connected to a SITRANS AS100. Remove the SITRANS AS100 or disconnect electrically to avoid current flowing through the sensor.

However, it is important to be aware of the effect. The sensitivity of the SITRANS AS100 Sensor decreases with increasing temperatures at a rate of approximately 0.5% per degree Celsius.
Sensor, an alarm in the control room informs the operator of a possible blockage. Recommended location is any point along the under side of chute, where there is friction due to the flow of material. SITRANS AS100 Operating Instructions, 04/2021, A5E31952194-AC...
