Permissible vibratory stress at the mounting location
T
As a matter of principle the instruments should only be mounted at locations
without vibratory stresses
T
Where required, a decoupling from the mounting location can be achieved
e.g. by a flexible connecting line from the measuring point to the pressure
gauge and mounting via a measuring instrument bracket.
T
If this is not possible, the following limits must not be exceeded:
Dry gauges:
Frequency range < 150 Hz
(Model 732)
Acceleration < 0.7 g (7 m/s
Liquid-filled gauges:
Frequency range < 150 Hz
(Model 733)
Acceleration < 4 g (40 m/s
The liquid filling has to be checked on a regular basis.
The liquid level must not drop below 75% of the gauge diameter.
4. Commissioning
During the commissioning process pressure peaks must be absolutely avoided.
Open the shut-off valves slowly.
5. Maintenance and servicing / cleaning
The instruments require no maintenance or servicing.
The indicator should be checked once or twice every 12 months.
The instrument must be disconnected from the process to check with a
pressure testing device.
The instruments should be cleaned with a damp cloth moistened with soap
solution.
6. Repairs
Repairs are to be only carried out by the manufacturer or appropriately trained
personnel.
