6.1.4 Mounting cladded flanges

• Use flange screws according to the number of flange holes.
• Tighten the screws with the required torque (see table).
• Retighten the screws after 24 hours or after the first temperature cycle.
• Depending on process pressure and process temperature check and retighten the screws at regular intervals.
Usually, the PTFE flange cladding also serves as a seal between the nozzle and the device flange.

6.1.6 Special mounting conditions

Bypasses and stilling wells
In bypass and stilling well applications it is recommended to use a centering disks or stars.

1 Mounting in a stilling well 2 Mounting in a bypass 3 Minimum distance between end of probe and lower edge of the bypass; see table below
Minimum distance between end of probe and lower edge of the bypass
Type of probe Minimum distance
Rope 10 mm (0.4 in)
Rod 10 mm (0.4 in)
Coax 10 mm (0.4 in)
• Pipe diameter: > 40 mm (1.6") for rod probes
• Rod probe installation can take place up to a diameter size of 150 mm (6 in). In the event of larger diameters, a coax probe is recommended.
• Side disposals, holes or slits and welded joints that protrude up to approx. 5 mm (0.2") inwards do not influence the measurement.
• The pipe may not exhibit any steps in diameter.
• The probe must be 100 mm longer than the lower disposal.
Levelflex FMP55 HART Mounting
• Within the measuring range, the probe must not get into contact with the pipe wall. If necessary, secure the probe by retaining or tensioning. All rope probes are prepared for tensioning in containers (tensioning weight with anchor hole).
• Within the measuring range, the probe must not get into contact with the pipe wall. If necessary, use a PFA centering star (see feature 610 of the product structure). The spacer is also available as an accessory: →  91.
• Coax probes can always be applied if there is enough mounting space.
For bypasses with condensate formation (water) and a medium with low dielectric constant (e.g. hydrocarbons):
In the course of time the bypass is filled with condensate up to the lower disposal and for low levels the the level echo is superimposed by the condensate echo. Thus in this range the condensate level is measured instead of the correct level. Only higher levels are measured correctly. To prevent this, position the lower disposal 100 mm (4 in) below the lowest level to be measured and apply a metallic centering disk at the height of the lower edge of the lower disposal.
With heat insulated tanks the bypass should also be insulated in order to prevent condensate formation.
For information on bypass solutions from Endress+Hauser please contact your Endress+Hauser sales representative.
