3.1 Installation location
The ambient conditions at the installation location must be within the
permissible temperature and climate ranges. The corresponding data
can be found in Section 1.4 Technical data.
The installation location should be free from vibrations and free of
electromagnetic interference fields. Please also refer to the notes in
Section 2 with respect to this.
When choosing an installation location, please make sure that the
permissible operating temperature for the particular sensor (Sensor
housing temperature) is adhered to (see 1.4).
In the case of a fairly high ambient
temperature, position the sensor in such a
way that it is not exposed to heat
convection from the measurement object
(example 1).
If such an arrangement is not possible, the sensor must be operated
with an additional cooling jacket (example 2). The cooling jackets are
fitted with a mounting flange (see accessories).
In order to prevent inadmissible heating or damage to the sensor in the
event that the supply of cooling water is cut off, it is also necessary to
monitor the water circulation. BARTEC offers suitable flow control
instruments.
Note:
The Thermophil® INFRAht radiation sensors must be positioned in such a
way that the cable between the radiation sensor and measuring amplifier is
not moved during measurement.
