Chapter 2 Installation Sensor Positioning Sensor Positioning It is important that the sensor is sited correctly for each application. The sensor must be installed near to where the acoustic energy is being generated. The stainless steel housing has a tab with a 14mm hole through it, this is for mounting the 201x, but it is also to hold the transducer in intimate contact with the process being monitored.
Power Supply Requirements The standard 2010 and HT version run on 24VDC and draw approx. 15mA. A suitable DC supply will be required. The 2011Z or G are a hazardous area product and certified to be used in Zone 0, therefore it must be supplied via a suitable 28V safety barrier, either zener or galvanic.
Instructions specific to hazardous area installations Hazardous area version (blue) (Reference European ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU, Annex II, 1.0.6.) The following instructions apply to equipment covered by certificate number Sira 04ATEX2121X: The equipment may be used with flammable gases and vapours with apparatus groups IIC, IIB, and IIA with temperature classes;...
The certificate number has an ‘X’ suffix that indicates that the following special condition of certification applies; When the equipment circuits are earthed (screen connected version, Type ‘G’), it shall only be supplied from galvanic isolating barriers. Because non-conductive plastic materials are used on the surface of the equipment (i.e.
