1.6
Transport safety instructions
Observe the following instructions:
— Do not expose the device to moisture during transport.
Pack the device accordingly.
— Pack the device so that it is protected against vibrations
during transport, e.g., by using air-cushioned packaging.
— Depending on the device, the center of gravity may not be
in the center of the equipment.
1.7
Installation safety instructions
Prior to installation, check the devices for possible damage
that may have occurred as a result of improper transport.
Details of any damage that has occurred in transit must be
recorded on the transport documents. All claims for damages
must be submitted to the shipper without delay and before
installation.
— The flow direction must correspond to the direction
indicated on the meter (if labeled).
— The maximum torque must not be exceeded for all flange
connections.
— The meters must be installed without mechanical tension
(torsion, bending).
— Install flange devices with coplanar counter flanges.
— Equipment must only be installed for the intended
operating conditions and with suitable gaskets.
— Flange bolts and nuts must be secured to provide
protection against pipeline vibrations.
1.8
Safety instructions for electrical installation
The electrical connection may only be established by
authorized specialist personnel and in accordance with the
connection diagrams.
The electrical connection information in the manual must be
observed; otherwise, the type of electrical protection may be
adversely affected.
Ground the measurement system according to requirements.
1.9
Safety instructions for operation
Before switching on the device, make sure that your
installation complies with the environmental conditions listed in
the chapter "Technical Data" or on the data sheet.
If there is a chance that safe operation is no longer possible,
take the device out of operation and secure it against
unintended startup.
During operation with hot media, contact with the surface may
result in burns.
Aggressive media may result in corrosion and abrasion of the
parts that come into contact with the medium. As a result,
pressurized media may escape prematurely.
Wear to the flange gasket or process connection gaskets
(e.g., aseptic threaded pipe connections, Tri-Clamp, etc.) may
enable a pressurized medium to escape.
When using internal flat gaskets, these can become embrittled
through CIP/SIP processes.
WARNING – Risk of poisoning!
Bacteria and chemical substances can
contaminate or pollute pipeline systems and the
materials they are made of.
Observe the following instructions in installations
conforming to EHEDG requirements.
— EHEDG certification requires a self draining installation,
only possible with a vertical installation.
— In order to achieve compliance with EHEDG requirements,
the combination of process connection and gaskets
selected by the operator must consist solely of EHEDG-
compliant parts. Note the information in the latest version
of the following document: EHEDG Position Paper:
"Hygienic process connections to use with hygienic
components and equipment".
1.10 Technical limit values
The meter has been designed for use exclusively within the
values stated on the name plate and within the technical limit
values specified on the data sheets.
The following technical limit values must be observed:
— The permissible pressure (PS) and the permissible fluid
temperature (TS) must not exceed the
pressure/temperature ratings (refer to the "Specifications"
section).
— The maximum and minimum operating temperature limits
must not be exceeded or undershot.
— The permissible ambient temperature must not be
exceeded.
— The housing's degree of protection must be observed
during operation.
— The flowmeter sensor must not be operated in the vicinity
of powerful electromagnetic fields, e.g., motors, pumps,
transformers, etc. A minimum spacing of approx. 1 m
(3.28 ft) must be maintained. For installation on steel parts
(e.g., steel brackets), a minimum spacing of 100 mm (4")
must be maintained. (These values have been calculated
on the basis of IEC 801-2 and IEC TC77B.)
