4.2 Mounting instructions
Note:
During planning, our specialists will analyse the conditions of the
measuring point to dimension the radiation source (isotope) accord-
ingly.
You get a "Source Sizing" document specifying the required source
activity and containing all relevant mounting information for your
measuring point.
You must follow the instructions of this "Source Sizing" document in
addition to the following mounting instructions.
The following mounting information is applicable as long as there is
nothing else specified in the "Source Sizing" document.
You can position and mount WEIGHTRAC 31 in the measuring frame
from both sides.
Direct the exit angle of the source container to the WEIGHTRAC 31.
Mount the source container at the specified distance to the conveyor
belt. Secure the area with a safety fence and protective grating so that
no one can reach into the dangerous area.
You can find information on protective barriers and the mounting
of the source container in the operating instructions manual of the
source container.
If you have ordered WEIGHTRAC 31 without measuring frame, a
basic mounting set is enclosed with the instrument.
Determine the mounting position of the sensor in advance.
1. Fasten the mounting bracket (6) to your conveyor belt.
You can either weld the mounting bracket (6) to your system or
fasten it with screws through the two ø9 mm (0.35 in) holes.
2. Place two clamp collars (4) onto the premounted mounting brack-
ets (6).
