1.3Use of Explosion-proof Electromagnetic Flowmeters
for TIIS
Before use
Flameproof
structure
Location guidelines
This flowmeter is of flameproof structure. Read this item carefully to ensure
correct use.
Flameproof structure means a totally enclosed housing that is capable of withstanding an explosion of a gas or vapor within it, and of preventing the ignition of an explosive gas or vapor that may surround it.
Install the flowmeter in accordance with the following guidelines:
• The flowmeter can be installed in hazardous areas of grade:
IIC T4
1 2
1. Explosive gaseous atmosphere graded IIC
2. Gaseous atmosphere where the ignition temperature is 135°C or greater
This means that the flowmeter can only be installed in Class I and II
locations. It cannot be installed in Class 0 locations.
• When installing the flowmeter in a hazardous or non-hazardous area, refer
to the installation specifications described in the appendix for the correct
wiring.
• The pressure-resistant packing cable adapter must be placed in the signal
wire outlet of the flowmeter converter. Use the adapter supplied.
• Handle the flowmeter case and cover carefully to prevent any damage or
distortion. Properly tighten the converter cover and never open it during
operation.
The specified explosion capability cannot be guaranteed if any of the above
guidelines are ignored.
When wiring the flowmeter in a Class 1 Hazardous Area, or in any area where
only low voltage wiring work is allowed, follow procedures published by the
Research Institute of Industrial Safety.

Nameplates
The flowmeter is required to pass a certified examination conducted in accordance with Industrial Safety and Hygiene Regulations. The Industry Safety
Engineering Association authorizes the flowmeter to carry a certified nameplate only after passing the examination.

If an MGG18/19 detector is used with an MGG14C converter as an FM-approved nonincendive
product, both the detector and the converter should be FM-approved nonincendive products.
If they are not, the MGG18/19 detector cannot be used as an FM-approved nonincendive product.

Chapter 2 - Installing the Device
Introduction
This section describes the installation and wiring of Electromagnetic
Flowmeter.
The required parts and method for installing this device may vary slightly
depending on the material of the wetting ring and the pipe.
Installation is explained in the following order:
• Criteria for selecting the installation environment
• An outline of the method of installing the device
• Detailed methods of installation depending on the material

2-1 Before Installing
Criteria for Selecting the Installation Site (1)
Introduction
Environment
In order to make full use of the functions of the device, select an optimal
installation site by following the selection criteria below.
Caution
• Install the unit in a location with an ambient temperature of –25 to
+60°C and a relative humidity of 5% to 100%. Failing to meet
these requirements could cause output errors.
• Install the unit away from high-current power lines, motors and
transformers to prevent damage from electromagnetic induction.
Failing to meet this requirement could cause output errors.
• Do not install the unit in a location subject to severe vibration or a
highly corrosive atmosphere. Failing to meet this requirement
could break the neck of the detector or cause other damage.
• As far as possible, install the unit out of direct sunlight. Failing to
meet this requirement could cause output errors.
Fluid to be
measured
Caution
The location for your MagneW FLEX+/PLUS+ must satisfy the
following conditions. Failing to meet these requirements could
cause output errors and fluctuations.
• A location where the conductance of the fluid to be measured
matches the stated specification (specs. vary according to the converter used) and is more or less constant.
• A location where the fluid to be measured can be regarded as electrochemically uniform. For example, if two fluids are mixed at an
upstream point, the two fluids should be uniformly mixed by the
time they reach the measurement point.
• A location where the distribution of suspended matter, if any, can
be regarded as nearly uniform
