Installation note
Installing the sensors
The supply and return sensor cables must always be the same length and have the same cross-section in order to avoid different cable resistances. The supplied cable of the flow and return sensor must not be shortened or lengthened in accordance with EN 1434-2 chapter 3.3.4. The sensors are paired. They are supplied in pairs and must also be used in pairs for the same calculator. The active sensor part should be located in the middle of the pipe; the tip should be directed towards the flow if possible.
Installation recommendations
Ensure symmetrical positioning of the flow and return sensors, i.e. the two sensors in a measuring system should be installed in the same way (e.g. both in pipe bends). Direct installation sensors must not be mixed with immersion sleeve sensors. This ensures that the temperature difference is measured with the best possible accuracy.
Installing the immersion sleeves
When installing the thermowells, ensure that the heating water flows around them over their entire length.
Important: Take any pipe insulation into account when dimensioning. Provide sufficient free space so that the sensor can be removed from the permanently installed immersion sleeve.
In order to achieve the best possible measuring accuracy, it is necessary to install the manufacturer's original immersion sleeves in conjunction with the temperature sensors supplied.
Insulation
Any cable insulation must be designed in such a way that the locking screw of the sensor immersion sleeve remains accessible at all times and the sensor can be easily removed for service and maintenance.
