4.6 Installation of the Evaluation Electronics
The evaluation unit (protection type IP 20) can be installed in a 19” rack. This rack then
has to be installed into a suitable measurement cabinet.
The wall housing can be fixed directly to a wall using screws. For outdoor installation, you
may have to install a sunshield to protect the evaluation unit against solar heating.
4.7 Installation of the Detector
Use a water cooling jacket to protect the detector against temperatures > 50°C.
Cables have to be protected against temperatures > 70°C.
Measuring system installed outdoors have to be protected from rain and direct sunshine
by a canopy. The cable entry must not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 70°C. The
cable gland and the cable entry must be aligned such that no water can flow along the
cable into the connection box.
The detector installation site must not be subject to heavy vibrations as this could
damage the detector.
Samples have to be taken for calibration of the measurement. A sampling point
has to be
foreseen in the direct vicinity of the measuring site.
4.7.1 Installation in a Container
If the detector is installed in a protective pipe inside the
container, the protective pipe has to be sealed to prevent
the penetration of dust and humidity. The detector
includes two suspension eyes. Wire ropes can be attached
to these suspension eyes. It is not permitted to suspend
the detector on the cable.
The cable should form a loop to allow possibly penetrating
water to drip off.
