Safety instructions Gammapilot M FMG60 HART

4 Endress+Hauser

1 Safety instructions

1.1 Designated use

The Gammapilot M is a compact transmitter for non-contact level, level limit, density and
concentration measurement. The measuring range of a single Gammapilot M extends up to
2 m (6.6 ft). Large measuring ranges of any size can be implemented, however, by cascading
several Gammapilot M devices. When used for level limit detection, the Gammapilot M is
certified according to IEC 61508 for safety-related operation up to SIL 2/3.

1.2 Installation, commissioning, operation

The Gammapilot M is fail-safe and is constructed to the state-of-the-art. It meets the
appropriate standards and EC directives. However, if you use it improperly or other than for
its designated use, it may pose application-specific hazards, e.g. product overflow due to
incorrect installation or configuration. Installation, electrical connection, startup, operation
and maintenance of the measuring device must therefore be carried out exclusively by
trained specialists authorized by the system operator. Technical personnel must have read
and understood these Operating Instructions and must adhere to them. You may only
undertake modifications or repair work to the device when it is expressly permitted by the
Operating Instructions.

1.3 Hazardous area

Measuring systems for use in hazardous environments are accompanied by separate "Ex
documentation", which is an integral part of these Operating Instructions. Strict compliance
with the installation instructions and ratings as stated in this supplementary documentation
is mandatory.

• Ensure that all personnel are suitably qualified.

• Observe the specifications in the certificate as well as national and local standards and
regulations.

CAUTION

!

Detector or cooling jacket can be damaged if the cooling water freezes.

‣ Empty cooling jacket or protect against freezing.

WARNING

!

Depending on the certificate version observe the associated Safety Instructions
( ä 83).

WARNING

!

The three screws, connecting the pipe
housing to the compartment housing,
must not be opened.

1.4 Radiation protection

The Gammapilot M is used in conjunction with a radioactive source, contained in a source
container. When handling radioactive sources, the following instructions have to be
observed:

1.4.1 Basic regulations on radiation protection

WARNING

!

When handling radioactive sources, all unnecessary radiation exposure should be
avoided. All unavoidable radiation exposure should be kept as low as possible. Three
measures are used for this:

A0016373

A Screening
BTime
CDistance

Shielding

Ensure the best possible shielding between the radiation source and yourself as well as all
other individuals. Effective shielding is provided by source containers (FQG60, FQG61/
FQG62, FQG63, QG2000) and all high-density materials (lead, iron, concrete).

CAUTION

!

When working with source containers, all the instructions for mounting and usage
outlined in the following documents must be observed:

Time

Stay as short as possible in the area exposed to radiation.

Distance

Keep as far away as possible from the radiation source. The local radiation intensity
decreases as the square-root of the distance from the radiation source.

3.2.2 Installation conditions for level measurement

Conditions

• For level measurements the Gammapilot M is mounted vertically; if possible the detector
head should point downwards.

• The exit angle of the source container must be exactly aligned to the measuring range of
the Gammapilot M. Observe the measuring range marks of the Gammapilot M.

• In cascading mode no gap should occur between the measuring ranges of the different
Gammapilot M.

• The source container and the Gammapilot M must be mounted as close to the vessel as
possible. Any access to the beam must be blocked so that no persons or part of their body
(hand, arm, head) may come into the area of the beam.

• In order to enlarge the lifetime, the Gammapilot M should be protected against direct sun.
If necessary, a protective cover should be applied.

• The mounting device FHG60 ( ä 72, "Accessories") or an equivalent mounting device
should be used for fastening the Gammapilot M.
The mounting device must be installed in a way such that it can withstand the weight of
the Gammapilot M

3.2.4 Installation conditions for density and concentration
measurement

Conditions

• If possible, density and concentration should be measured at vertical pipes with a feed

direction from bottom to top.

• If only horizontal pipes are accessible, the path of the ray should also be arranged

horizontally to reduce the influence of air bubbles and sediments.

• The Endress+Hauser clamping device ( ä 72, "Accessories") or an equivalent clamping

device should be used for fastening the radiation source container and the Gammapilot M
to the measuring tube.The clamping device itself must be installed in a way such that it can
withstand the weight of the source container

3)

and the Gammapilot M4) under all

operating conditions.

• The sample point may not be further than 20 m (66 ft) from the measuring point.

• The distance of the density measurement to pipe bends is 3 x pipe diameter and 10 x

pipe diameter for pumps.

Configuration of the measuring system

The configuration of the source container and the Gammapilot M depends on the pipe
diameter (or the length of the irradiated measuring path respectively) and the measuring
range. These two parameters determine the measuring effect (relative change of the pulse
rate). The measuring effect increases with the length of the radiation path through the
medium. Therefore, diagonal irradiation or the use of a measurement section is necessary
for small pipe diameters.

For the configuration of the measuring system please contact your Endress+Hauser sales
organization or use the "Applicator"

NOTICE

General

‣ To increase the accuracy for density measurements, the use of a collimator is

recommended. The collimator screens the detector against environmental radiation.

‣ When planning, the total weight of the measuring system must be taken into

consideration.

‣ The Gammapilot M should be given additional support to secure it against falling or

prevent damage to the connecting cable.

‣ A clamping device and a measurement section are available as accessories ( ä 72,

"Accessories").

3) The weights of the source containers are specified in TI00445F/00/EN (FQG60), TI00435F/00/EN (FQG61, FQG62), TI00446F/00/EN (FQG63)

A0018077

1 Gammapilot M
2 Monitoring detector FTG20 or FMG60
3SPS

Mounting the FTG20 or FMG60 on the FMG60 for empty pipe detection

If the pipe becomes empty as a result of operational processes, the radiation on the detector
side can hit dangerous levels.

• In such instances, the irradiation channel must be closed immediately for reasons of
radiation protection.

• A high local dose rate also causes the detector unit (scintillator and photomultiplier) to age
quickly.

The best way of avoiding such a situation is to mount a second radiometric measuring
system that monitors the radiation intensity. If high radiation levels occur, an alarm is
output and/or the source container is automatically switched off through pneumatic action
for example.
