2.1.1 Meters with hygienic connections

1Fully welded - the O-rings between the meter and the process pipework are not supplied as standard but can be ordered.

2DIN 11864-2 Form A - the O-rings between the Form A and Form B parts of the connection are not supplied as standard but can be ordered.

3The 11864-2 Form B is not supplied as part of this connection but it can be ordered.

2.2Nameplates

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.

2.3 Dual Seal

To comply with the requirements of ANSI/ISA -12.27.01-2011 “Requirements for process Sealing Between electrical systems and Flammable or Combustible process Fluids” a secondary seal is incorporated into all OPTIMASS / GAS products. If the primary seal fails, the secondary seal will prevent escaping fluid reaching the electronic compartment.

Pressures and / or temperatures are limited by tube, temperature, connection and Ex limits. Check the meter nameplates and relevant documentation for full details. On all meters operating on gas measurement, the casing of the meter is fitted with a burst disc. If the primary seal (tube) fails leakage will occur from the burst disc. Install the meter so that the burst disc is pointing away from personnel.

Liquids (Example model code: OPTIMASS 6000F S50 - LIQUID

Pressure and temperature data:

OPTIMASS 6000 / 6000F / 6400C -200°C...+230°C and 100...10000 kPa (Stainless Steel) OPTIMASS 6000 / 6000F / 6400C -50°C...+230°C and 100...20000 kPa (Hastelloy® / duplex) OPTIMASS 6000 / 6000F - HT -50°C...+400°C and 100...10000 kPa

If the primary seal fails, the casing of the meter will fill with liquid and the meter will stop working. The meter will notify the operator by displaying the status message "Sensor: Sensor signal low" on the converter or PLC display. This is an indication that the primary seal (tube) has failed and the status of the meter should be checked.

As soon as it is safe to do so, de-pressurise the process line and remove the meter. Please contact customer service for servicing or replacement of the meter.

2 DEVICE DESCRIPTION

 

 

OPTIMASS 6000

 

 

 

 

INFORMATION!

At high pressures, process fluid may also leak from the meter casing. This is also an indicatioin that the primary seal has failed.

Meter status:

The meter will also display the mesage "Sensor: Sensor signal low" if the measuring tubes are not completely filled with fluid. For example, if the meter is drained or re/filled.

To check the status of the meter, drain and re/fill with fluid and note the converter or PLC display. See the relevant section of the converter handbook for a list of status messages and diagnostics information.

If the meter continues to display the message: "Sensor: Sensor signal low" you MUST assume that the primary seal (tubes) has failed and the appropriate action MUST be taken.

Gases (Example model code: OPTIMASS 6000F S50 - GAS)

Pressure / temperature data:

OPTIMASS 6000 / 6000F / 6400C -200°C...+230°C and 500... 10000 kPa (Stainless Steel)

OPTIMASS 6000 / 6000F / 6400C -50°C...+230°C and 500...20000 kPa (Hastelloy® / duplex)

OPTIMASS 6000F - HT -50°C...+400°C and 500...10000 kPa

Pressures and/or temperatures may be further limited by tube, temperature, connection and Ex limits. Consult the meter nameplate and relevant documentation for full details.

On all meters operating on gas measurement the casing of the meter is fitted with a burst disc. If the primary seal (tube/s) fails leakage will occur from the burst disc. Install the meter so that the burst disc is pointing away from personnel.

Regular maintenance of the burst disc:

Carry out regular maintenance checks on burst discs for leakage and/or blockages. On all OPTIMASS meters, the primary seal is considered to be the measuring tube of the meter. The materials of construction of the measuring tube/s are described within the relevant sections of this handbook and the customer’s product and any other fluid flowing through the tube must be compatible with the material of construction. If failure of the primary seal is suspected then the process line should be de-pressurised and the meter removed as soon as it is safe to do so. Please contact customer service for servicing or replacement of the meter.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 2

 

OPTIMASS 6000

 

 

 

Thermal shock

Thermal shock occurs when there is a sudden and extreme change (shift) in process temperature. To prevent thermal shock on this meter, the manufacturer recommends that you avoid a temperature shift greater than 100°C / 212°F, at a maximum of 40% of the nominal flow rate.

These limits will give a minimum calculated life span for the meter of 3500 cycles. Thermal shocking below this temperature will increase the life span of the meter. For more information, please contact your nearest representative.

Maximum temperature rate rise

If the change in temperature (rate rise) is greater than 100°C / 212°F, the temperature rise must be over a period of time. Calculate the time required for the whole temperature rise using the table below.

Meter size

Temp. rate rise

20°C...

400°C / 68°F...

752°F = 140

 

 

 

minutes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These limits will provide a minimum calculated life span for the meter of 2000 cycles. Temperature rises below 100°C / 212°F, or temperature rises over a longer period of time, will increase the life span of the meter.

CAUTION!

Operation outside these limits may result in shifts in density and mass flow calibration. Repeated shocking and / or rapid heating, may also result in premature failure of the meter. However, higher thermal shocks and / or an increased number of cycles are possible at lower working pressures. For more information, please contact your nearest representative.

OPTIMASS 6000

 

 

 

 

3.4.3 Gas / liquid build up

In certain applications, the design of the meter can cause either gas or liquid to build up in the measuring tube.

1Where liquids are being measured, mount the meter as shown. This will prevent gas building up in the measuring tube, when there is no flow.

2Where gases are being measured, mount the meter as shown. This will prevent liquids building up in the measuring tube, when there is no flow.

3.4.4Side mounting

The meter can be installed with the converter (or remote junction box) on the side of the meter so that the measuring tubes are sitting one above the other. Avoid this method of installation where there is a two phase process flow, or where the process fluid contains gas. If this situation cannot be avoided, please contact the manufacturer for advice.
