3.3.2 Panel mounting
Prepare the panel cutout as shown in the drawing (see chapter - Technical Data - Dimensions).
To mount in the panel, slightly loosen the two screws 1 on the front panel of the measuring
device. Insert the device into the panel cutout from the front, align and fasten with the two
screws 1.
CAUTION!
When installing the device in the piping, the following points must be observed:
•
The variable area flowmeter must be installed vertically (measuring principle). Flow direction
from bottom to top. For installation recommendations please refer also to VDI/VDE 3513
Sheet 3.
• Before connecting, blow or flush out the pipes leading to the device.
• Pipes for gas flow need to be dried before the device is installed.
• Use connectors suitable for the particular device version.
• Align the pipes axially with the connections on the measuring device so they are free of
stresses.
• If necessary, support the piping to reduce vibrations being transmitted to the measuring
device.
• Do not lay signal cables directly next to cables for the power supply.
