Mounting; Tightening Torque; Installation Of Cables - Rechner Sensors SmartPaddle Series Instruction Manual

Mounting

Because of the special design, the sensor
in any position you require (Fig. 1). The front surface is not active (Fig. 2). This means, that the sensor
SMARTPADDLE
can touch the wall of the pipe without affecting the measurement. (Fig. 3).

Please pay attention, when mounting the sensor
sensor does not obstruct the flow.

Tightening torque

In order to prevent damage to the threaded sleeves when mounting the sensor SMARTPADDLE, the
maximum torque should be taken into consideration. Maximum torque = 20 Nm

Installation of cables

Wiring of the sensors should be routed separately or screened from heavy conductor lines, as
in extreme cases inductive peak voltages can destroy the sensors despite the integrated pro-
tective circuit. Screened cable or twisted lines are recommended, especially for longer cable
runs > 5 m.
Units with strong local field power, e. g. high power walkie-talkies, or noise sources in the
lower frequency range, e.g. long, middle or short wave transmitters should not be operated
close to the sensors or additional measures have to be taken in order to eliminate incorrect
operation.
