3. GENERAL
The FGM 160 system supplied from Fluenta is designed to work with no substantial pre-
installation preparations. Due to the complexity and the required accuracy of the
measurements, it is mandatory to obtain a very high degree of precision and care during all
phases of the installation.
This procedure includes the required steps from unpacking to commissioning. After
unpacking and inspection of the received goods has been carried out, the system should be
ready for installation. The description of the installation of the system is divided into
subsections as follows:
• Transducer/ Probe installation.
• FGM 160 Field Computer installation.
NOTE:
Installation of transducers is forbidden and causes loss of warranty,
unless it is performed by certified personnel. Certified personnel
includes Fluenta service engineers, service engineers of Fluenta agents
who have received proper training and operators who have attended and
completed Fluenta’s 2-day Operators Training Course. Installation
of computers should be performed for preparation, but it is forbidden to
energize them without a properly trained person (same condition as for
transducers) to supervise it. Additionally, any interference within
transducers and computers (opening, configuring, etc.) is forbidden and
will cause loss of warranty.
4. UNPACKING
4.1 Inspection of Goods
Installation of the equipment supplied by Fluenta must never occur without the inspection
of the supplied goods carried out first. This should be performed according to the instructions
and tasks described in:
FGM 160 – Preservation, Packing, Unpacking and Storage Procedure[1].
It is important to verify the goods according to the packing list and inspect for damages
caused by transportation, and to save packing material for storing and reshipping of the
equipment, if required.
Fluenta ensures that equipment is packed and shipped properly. Mechanical
damage caused during transportation on Ex-works terms or on customer’s site
will not be considered as warranty.
4.2 Ex-Classification Marking
Make sure that the FGM 160 is certified for the area and hazardous zone it is intended to be
installed in. The Ex-Classification marking of the equipment is described in:
FGM 160 – Hazardous Area Installation Guidelines [2].
