Applications The BGN meter is suitable for flow measurement of liquid or gaseous products in pipes. It shows the current flow rate in volume or mass per unit in time. Please consider also the provisions for the use in hazardous areas.
Heinrichs Messtechnik BGN Installation and Operating Instructions Storage and installation must be done in a clean and dry area so that contamination – especially of the interior of the fitting – is avoided. Follow the limit values for ambient temperature. When transporting the device to a remote mounting location, we recommend that you reuse the factory-issued packaging and the transport protection.

Heinrichs Messtechnik BGN Installation and Operating Instructions 9.1.4 Influence of ambient temperature Without electrical equipment and with limit transducer without influence With transmitter ES ± 0.5 % / 10 K reference temperature 22°C Influence of fluid temperature Deviations in fluid temperature from the temperature observed during calibration can result in a proportional display fault because of the corresponding change in density.
Heinrichs Messtechnik BGN Installation and Operating Instructions Please check whether the pipe is adequately fixed and stable to prevent vibration or swinging of the device. (Do not use steel mounting parts on the device.) When used with gaseous media, installation position of e.g. adjusting valve (e.g. special option): If the device is calibrated to more than 1.013 bars abs., the valve is usually installed at the flow meter outlet.

Magnetic filter The BGN flow meter is sensitive to impure media. Before installing the device, clean the pipes of dirt, spatter and other foreign matter. If the media contains solid particles, connect a suitable filter in series. When dealing with flow media with ferrous particles, we recommend using a magnetic filter.

Systems for Use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres), the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive 89/336/EEC and the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC. Heinrichs Messtechnik confirms compliance with the directives by attaching the CE mark. 15 Order information Please include the following information in your order: Product data, density, temperature, pressure, viscosity, material design, connection size, measuring range, desired accessories, required approvals and material certificates.
Note: On threaded process connection versions removal of the float is not possible! From measuring ranges 5-50 l/h water and higher the float can be removed. On the BGN S-type up to 40 l/h water. the float can be changed including the cone.
If the float is being removed we recommend a new calibration of the instrument. Without new calibration additional measuring errors must be considered. For further instruction on spare parts please contact the Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH service department 22 Exploded views 22.1...
