Important Notes
Usage for the intended purpose
Use the electrodes NRG 16-19, NRG 16-27 and NRG 16-28 in conjunction with a suitable detector (e. g. test station NRA 1-3) only for monitoring steam traps for banking-up of condensate and loss of live steam.
Safety note
The equipment must only be installed and commissioned by qualified and competent staff. Retrofitting and maintenance work must only be performed by qualified personnel who – through
adequate training – have achieved a recognised level of competence.
Danger
When loosening the measuring electrode steam or hot water might escape. This presents the danger of severe scalding. It is therefore essential not to remove the electrode unless the boiler pressure is verified to be zero.
The electrode is hot during operation. This presents the danger of severe burns to hands and arms. Installation and maintenance work should only be carried out when the system is cold.
PED (Pressure Equipment Directive)
The equipment fulfils the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) 97/23/EC. Applicable with fluids of group 2.
ATEX (Atmosphère Explosible)
According to the European Directive 94/9/EC the equipment must not be used in explosion-risk areas.

Description
The measuring electrode fitted in the steam trap or in a separate test chamber monitors the steam trap for banking-up of condensate and loss of live steam.
The measuring electrodes NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28 feature an additional temperature sensor for detecting the condensate temperature.
The test station NRA 1-3 is designed for the connection of up to max. 16 measuring electrodes.
Function
The following electrodes can be used for monitoring steam traps:
n Measuring electrodes NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28 for detecting loss of live steam (electrode exposed)
and banking-up of condensate (by measuring the temperature of the condensate) or
n Measuring electrode NRG 16-19 for detecting banking-up of condensate or loss of live steam
(electrode exposed or immerged).
The measuring electrode NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28 works according to the conductivity measurement principle and signals electrode exposed or immerged. The equipment is also equipped with a tem­perature sensing element PT 1000 for measuring the temperature of the condensate. The measuring electrode is installed either directly inside the steam trap to be monitored or in the separate test chamber VKE 16 mounted upstream of the steam trap.
Faulty steam traps cause either banking-up of condensate or loss of live steam. Both conditions will be detected by the measuring electrode and indicated and evaluated by the test station NRA 1-3.
The measuring electrode NRG 16-19 works according to the conductivity measurement principle, too. Depending on the installation the electrode detects either loss of live steam or banking-up of conden­sate. The readings are then evaluated by the test station NRA 1-3 or by the level switch NRS 1-2.

Installation
NRG 16-19, NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28
The measuring electrode NRG 16-28 can be directly screwed into Rhombusline steam traps. For this purpose unscrew the sealing plug and remove the strainer (see Fig. 7).
The steam traps can be installed in horizontal pipes or in vertical pipes with downward flow. The measuring electrodes NRG 16-19, NRG 16-27 are to be screwed into the test chambers VKE 16,
VKE 26:
1. Check sealing surfaces of the steam trap and the test chamber.
2. Put joint ring onto the seating surface of the electrode. Use only the joint ring supplied with the electrode.
3. Apply a light smear of grease (e. g. Molykote
®
111) to the thread.
4. Screw the measuring electrode into the steam trap or test chamber and tighten it, using an open-end spanner 32 mm A. F.
The torques required for tightening when cold are:
NRG 16-19: 60 Nm, NRG 16-27: 60 Nm, NRG 16-28: 210 Nm.
Attention
n The seating surfaces of the steam trap or the test chamber must be accurately
machined.
n Do not insulate the electrode thread with hemp or PTFE tape. n Observe the specified torques for tightening.
Tools
n Open-end spanner, 32 mm A. F.

Wiring
Connecting cables for measuring electrodes
NRG 16-19
The measuring electrode comes with a 2 m long connecting cable and can be directly connected to the test station NRA 1-3. To extend the cable use screened two-core cable, e. g. Ölflex 110 CH, manufactured by LAPP, 2 x 0.5 mm2. Max. cable length between measuring electrode and test station NRA 1-3: 50 m.
NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28
Use screened five-core cable, e. g. Ölflex 110 CH, manufactured by LAPP, 5 x 0.5 mm length between measuring electrode and test station NRA 1-3: 50 m. Please connect the screen to the measuring electrode.
Pre-assembled connecting cables (with connector) of various lengths available as accessories.
Wiring
Connect the cables to the terminal strips of the test station according to the wiring diagram.
Tools
n Screwdriver for cross recess head screws, size 1 and 2 n Screwdriver for slotted screws, size 2.5, completely insulated to VDE 0680.

Commissioning
Checking wiring
Before commissioning please check:
Are the measuring electrodes /temperature sensors wired in accordance with the wiring diagram?
Applying mains voltage
Apply mains voltage to the test station.
Maintenance
Danger
When loosening the measuring electrode steam or hot water might escape. This presents the danger of severe scaling. It is therefore essential not to remove the electrode unless the boiler pressure is verified to be zero.
The electrode is hot during operation. This presents the danger of severe burns to hands and arms. Installation and maintenance work should only be carried out when the system is cold.
Maintenance interval
We recommend to remove the measuring electrodes every 6 months and clean them with a wet cloth.
If faults occur that are not listed above or cannot be corrected, please contact our service centre or authorized agency in your country.
16
Decommissioning
Disposal
Remove the measuring electrode NRG 16-19, NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28 and separate the waste materials, using the material specification as a reference. Electronic components (circuit boards) must be disposed of properly.
For the disposal of the measuring electrode observe the pertinent legal regulations concerning waste.
