5.12. Mounting high temperature detector (SX2-B)
The high temperature sensor is mounted on pipe with a diameter of 50 to 250mm (1.97 to 9.84 in) using the V method. For
diameter range 150 to 400mm (5.9 to 15.75 in), the Z method should be used.
5.12.1. Mounting of detector (in case of V method)
Mounting the detector using the following procedure.
Do not perform mounting when the temperature of pipe is high. Otherwise, you may suffer a burn.
(1) By loosening lock nuts, slide the sensor to fit the
mounting size displayed on the converter. Tighten the
lock nuts.

Turn the element holder counterclockwise to return the
sensor.
Clean the surface of the pipe and mount the sensor on
the pipe.
(3) Mount the sensor saddles on the pipe with stainless
belt.

(4) Make sure that the sensor is mounted in parallel with
the piping and that the mounting position is correct.
Then, turn the element holder clockwise until the
sensor is firmly fitted to the piping.

Stop turning the element holder where the transmitting
surface contacts the surface of pipe, and thus the
element holder will not rotate. Do not turn it
excessively.
