User Manual HTS801 The ARC parameters can be configured via PCS10 or display and push-buttons: Heating duration: Defines the time in which the monolithic measurement cell is intensively heated. A heating time of at least 20 minutes (20 min = factory setting) is recommended if chemical pollution has occurred.
User Manual HTS801 3.4.3. Condensation Guard (CG) against Temporary Condensation Temporary condensation on the sensing element in highly humid environments is eliminated when a specified RH set point (factory setting: acc. to order code) is reached. By intensive heating of the sensing element for 10 seconds occurring dew is evaporated.
The dual heating system of the HTS801 prevents both: condensation on the RH sensing element and on the probe body by a regulated heating strategy. This leads to very short response time and fast recovery after condensing conditions.

User Manual HTS801 DIN Rail Mounting of the Polycarbonate Enclosure ▪. Mount the two DIN rail brackets onto the back section. (HA010203, to be ordered separately, see chapter 8.Spare.Parts / Accessories) ▪. Snap in the enclosure onto the DIN rail. Fig. 27 DIN rail installation General Information for Mounting HTS801 Sensing Probes PLEASE NOTE For accurate measurement it is of paramount importance to avoid T gradients along the probe. In case of large T difference between the front and the back of the probe, it is highly recommended to insert the probe completely into the process.
Probe into separation wall the probe shall be avoided Probe into separation wall Hanging probe Fig. 28 Mounting the remote probe of HTS801-T5 The stainless steel mounting flange is not appropriate for pressure-tight mounting. For pressure-tight requirements use HTS801-T10. Remote Sensing Probe Type T7 4.4.1.
WARNING General safety instructions for pressure-tight installation The installation, commissioning and operation of the HTS801-T7 may be performed by qualified staff only. Special attention shall be paid to the correct installation of the probe into the process. In case of inappropriate installation there is the risk for the probe to be suddenly expulsed due to the pressure in the process.
WARNING General safety instructions for pressure-tight installation The installation, commissioning and operation of the HTS801-T9 may be performed by qualified staff only. Special attention shall be paid to the correct installation of the probe into the process. In case of inappropriate installation there is the risk for the probe to be suddenly expulsed due to the pressure in the process.
Page 28
User Manual HTS801 CAUTION Safety instructions for pressure-tight feedthrough: Do not assemble the probe and tighten the feedthrough if the plant is under pressure. The plant must not be vented by releasing the nut (A). Use appropriate seal on conical probe threads. Never rotate the screw connection body (B) but hold the screw connection body (B) securely and turn the nut (A).
For direct probe installation shut-off valves shall be placed on both sides of the probe insert (see Fig. 30 Installation of the HTS801-T10 probe directly into the process). This allows the sensor probe to be easily removed for maintenance and calibration.
User Manual HTS801 4.6.2. Installation of the Probe with Ball Valve Set The ball valve set allows for installation and removal of the probe without process interruption. For mounting into a duct, the ball valve shall be installed perpendicular to the flow direction. NOTICE The two metal sealing rings (see Fig. 31 Installation of the probe by utilizing the ball valve set) shall be replaced every time prior to re-installing the probe.
User Manual HTS801 Removing the probe Hold firmly the probe to avoid it being suddenly expulsed when releasing the lock. Do not bend damage the probe cable. Loosen slowly the lock nut with a spanner (spanner width 24) only till the probe is pushed out by the overpressure in the process.
5 Electrical Connection NOTICE The electrical installation of the HTS801 shall be performed by qualified personnel only. Observe all applicable national and international requirements for the installation of electrical devices as well as for power supply according to EN 61140, class III (EU) and class 2 supply (North America).
