Mechanical Mounting
Review the Configuration Drawing, which is included in the
Drawing Chapter of this manual.
Please reference the dimensional drawings located in
the Drawing Chapter of this manual when installing
the equipment.
Consider the following general guidelines when
mounting the sensor and detector:
Avoid internal vessel obstructions such as baffles, agitators,
man-ways, heater/cooler tubes, etc. which could interfere with
the transmission through the vessel of the radiation's "active beam."
The source and detector must be rigidly mounted so they do not move
with respect to each other. Such movement will destroy the system's
calibration and/or its measurement.
Insulation must be used at the point of installation IF:
- the temperature of the process pipe at that spot exceeds
131
o
F (55
o
C), or
- the voltage transmission through the pipe could interfere
with the signal transmission from the source to the detector.
