2.3 Mounting
2.3.1 VEGADIF 34, 35 and 51
As a rule, the differential pressure transmitter
must be firmly mounted. There are three
mounting options for VEGADIF 34, 35 and 51:
- pipe mounting (2“ pipe)
- wall mounting
- mounting on a valve block
1)
Simply hanging the transmitter on the pres-
sure lines is not recommended and is not
permitted with capillary lines.
For correct mounting, VEGA offers a universal
mounting kit consisting of:
- a mounting bracket
- a pipe shackle for 2“ pipes (up to outer-ø
63 mm)
- two hexagon nuts M8 with plain washers
- four hexagon screws (

)
For easy removal of the transmitter, a three or
five valve manifold (ball valve fitting) can be
connected
1)
.
In this case, the valve block can be mounted
with the mounting kit to a pipe or wall instead
of the transmitter. This mounting option en-
sures easy mounting and dismounting of the
transmitter without interrupting the process.
The impulse lines can be sealed via the valves
and the manifold with the connected impulse
lines can be left in place after removal of the
transmitter.

Pipe mounting
Use the complete mounting kit material and
the take note of the following procedure:
1 Hold the mounting bracket in the required
direction on the tube.
2 Insert the u-bolt around the pipe through the
holes of the mounting bracket.
3 Screw the two hexagon nuts to the u-bolt
and fasten the bracket to the pipe by tight-
ening the nuts.
4 Fasten the transmitter to the bracket (the
screws with plain washers pass through the
holes of the bracket into the thread).
