Drain the pipeline before removing device ( provide drain valve)

2.6 General requirements

INFORMATION!
The following precautions must be taken to ensure a reliable installation.
• Make sure that there is adequate space to the sides.

• Protect the signal converter from direct sunlight and install a sun shade if necessary.
• Support the pipeline on both side of the flowmeter.
• Do not expose the signal converter to intense vibration. The flowmeters are tested for a
vibration level in accordance with IEC 60068-2-64.

3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS BATCHFLUX 5500 C
3.1 Safety instructions

DANGER!
All work on the electrical connections may only be carried out with the power disconnected. Take
note of the voltage data on the nameplate!
DANGER!
Observe the national regulations for electrical installations!
DANGER!
For devices used in hazardous areas, additional safety notes apply; please refer to the Ex
documentation.
WARNING!
Observe without fail the local occupational health and safety regulations. Any work done on the
electrical components of the measuring device may only be carried out by properly trained
specialists.
INFORMATION!
Look at the device nameplate to ensure that the device is delivered according to your order.
Check for the correct supply voltage printed on the nameplate.
3.2 Grounding
CAUTION!
The grounding should not transmit any interference voltage. Therefore do not ground any other
electrical device at the same conductor.
CAUTION!
When connecting to functional extra-low voltages (24VDC) , ensure that you use protective
separation (PELV) according to IEC 364/IEC 536 or VDE 0100/VDE 0106.
CAUTION!
Do not remove the secured (glued) adjusting screw. Removing the screw will affect the gas
tightness and durability of the device.

The O-rings require periodic inspection and replacement. As the interval depends on process-
specific variables, the length of the interval cannot be specified.
The O-rings are not part of the manufacturer portfolio.
INFORMATION!
For 3A applications, O-rings must conform to the requirements of the 3A sanitary standard for
Flow meters, number 28-04 Class I or Class II (max. 8% milk fat).
The used O-rings must also withstand the processing, sterilization and chemical conditions for
the intended use ( for more information, contact the manufacturer)
