2.1 Safety messages

Instructions and procedures in this section may require special precautions to ensure the safety of the personnel performing the operations. Refer to the following safety messages before performing any operation in this section.

Section 2: Installation

September 2015

If pipe/duct wall is less than 0.125-in. (3.2mm) use extreme caution when installing sensor. Thin walls can deform during welding, installation, or from the weight of a cantilevered flowmeter. These installations may require a fabricated outlet, saddle, or external flowmeter support. Consult factory for assistance.

Explosions could result in death or serious injury.

 Do not remove the transmitter cover in explosive atmospheres when the circuit is live.  Before connecting a Field Communicator in an explosive atmosphere, make sure the

instruments in the loop are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe or non-incendive field wiring practices.

 Verify the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the appropriate

hazardous locations certifications.

 Both transmitter covers must be fully engaged to meet explosion-proof requirements.

Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury.

 Make sure only qualified personnel perform the installation.

2.2 Receiving and inspection

Flowmeters are available in different models and with different options, so it is important to inspect and verify that the appropriate model was delivered before installation.

Upon receipt of the shipment, check the packing list against the material received and the purchase order. All items are tagged with a sales order number, serial number, and customer tag number. Report any damage to the carrier.

2.3 Considerations

2.3.1 Limitations

Structural

Structural limitations are printed on the sensor tag. Exceeding structural limitations may cause sensor failure.

Functional

The most accurate and repeatable flow measurement occurs in the following conditions:

 The structural limit differential pressure, as printed on the sensor tag, is not exceeded.

 The instrument is not used for two-phase flow or for steam service below saturation

temperature.

 Install the flowmeter in the correct location within the piping branch to prevent

measurement inaccuracies caused by flow disturbances.

 The flowmeter can be installed with a maximum misalignment of 3 degrees (see Figure

2-1). Misalignment beyond 3 degrees will cause flow measurement errors.

Reference Manual

00809-0100-4809, Rev DA

3° max. 3° max.

2.3.2 Environmental

Mount the flowmeter in a location with minimal ambient temperature changes. Appendix A:

Specifications and Reference Data lists the temperature operating limits. Mount to avoid

vibration, mechanical shock, and external contact with corrosive materials.

3° max.

Access requirements

Consider the need to access the flowmeter when choosing an installation location and orientation.

Installation

Reference Manual

00809-0100-4809, Rev DA

Process flange orientation

Orient the process flanges on a remote mounted flowmeter so that process connections can be made. For safety reasons, orient the drain/vent valves so that process fluid is directed away from technicians when the valves are used. In addition, consider the possible need for a testing or calibration input.

Housing rotation

The electronics housing may be rotated up to 180 degrees (left or right) to improve field access to the two compartments or to better view the optional LCD meter. To rotate the housing, release the housing rotation set screw and turn the housing up to 180 degrees.

Electronics housing

Terminal side

The circuit compartment should not routinely need to be opened when the unit is in service. Wiring connections are made through the conduit openings on the top or side of the housing. The field terminal side is marked on the electronics housing. Mount the flowmeter so that the terminal side is accessible. A 0.75-in. (19 mm) clearance is required for cover removal. Use a conduit plug on the unused side of the conduit opening. A 3-in. (76 mm) clearance is required for cover removal if a meter is installed.

2.5.4 Instrument manifolds

Figure 2-5 on page 10 identifies the valves on a 5-valve and a 3-valve manifold. Table 2-1 on page 10 explains the purpose of these valves.

An instrument manifold is recommended for all installations. A manifold allows an operator to equalize the pressures prior to the zero calibration of the transmitter as well as to isolate the electronics from the rest of the system without disconnecting the impulse piping. Although a 3-valve manifold can be used, a 5-valve manifold is recommended.

5-valve manifolds provide a positive method of indicating a partially closed or faulty equalizer valve. A closed faulty equalizer valve will block the DP signal and create errors that may not be detectable otherwise. The labels for each valve will be used to identify the proper valve in the procedures to follow.

Note

Some recently-designed instrument manifolds have a single valve actuator, but cannot perform all of the functions available on standard 5-valve units. Check with the manufacturer to verify the functions that a particular manifold can perform. In place of a manifold, individual valves may be arranged to provide the necessary isolation and equalization functions.

2.5.6 Flowmeter orientation

Liquid

Due to the possibility of air getting trapped in the Annubar sensor, it should be located according to Figure 2-7 for liquid applications. It should be mounted between 15° to 45° from vertical down to ensure that air is vented from the Annubar sensor, and that sediment or solid particles are not collected within the Annubar sensor.

For liquid applications, mount the side drain/vent valve upward to allow the gases to vent. In vertical lines, the Annubar sensor can be installed in any position around the circumference of the pipe, provided the vents are positioned properly for bleeding or venting. Vertical pipe installations require more frequent bleeding or venting, depending on the location.

For a remote mounted transmitter, mount the transmitter below the process piping, adjust 10° to 15° above direct vertical down. Route the impulse piping down to the transmitter and fill the system with cool water through the two cross fittings.

Gas

Figure 2-8 illustrates the recommended location of the flowmeter in gas applications. The

sensor should be located on the upper half of the pipe, at least 45° above the horizontal line.

For gas applications, mount the drain/vent valve downward to allow liquid to drain. In vertical lines, the Annubar sensor can be installed in any position around the circumference of the pipe, provided the vents are positioned properly for bleeding or venting. Vertical pipe installations require more frequent bleeding or venting, depending on the location.

For a remote mounted transmitter, secure the transmitter above the Annubar sensor to prevent condensible liquids from collecting in the impulse piping and the DP cell.

Steam

In steam applications, fill the lines with water to prevent the steam from contacting the transmitter. Condensate chambers are not required because the volumetric displacement of the transmitter is negligible.

For a remote mounted transmitter, mount the transmitter below the process piping, adjust to 10° to 15° above direct vertical down. Route the impulse piping down to the transmitter and fill the system with cool water through the two cross fittings.

Top mounting for steam applications is an appropriate mounting option in many cases. Consult Rosemount Customer Central for instructions regarding steam on top mounting.

Note

For wet steam, do not mount the flowmeter at the direct vertical position. Mounting at an angle will avoid measurement inaccuracy due to water running along the bottom of the pipe.

2.5.7 Remote mounted transmitter

Instrument head connections differ between horizontal and vertical pipes. For horizontal lines, the instrument connections are parallel to the pipe and for vertical lines, the instrument connection are perpendicular.

Valves and fittings

Throughout the remote mounting process:

 Use only valves, fittings, and pipe thread sealant compounds that are rated for the

service pipeline design pressure and temperature as specified in Appendix A:

Specifications and Reference Data.

 Verify that all connections are tight and that all instrument valves are fully closed.

 Verify that the Annubar sensor is properly oriented for the intended type of service:

liquid, gas, or steam (see “Flowmeter orientation” on page 14).

Impulse piping

Impulse piping connects a remote mounted transmitter to the Annubar sensor. Temperatures in excess of 250 °F (121 °C) at the transmitter will damage electronic components; impulse piping allows service flow temperatures to decrease to a point where the transmitter is no longer vulnerable.

1. Consult with RCC to determine if this installation is right for your application.

piping should have a minimum length of 1-ft. (0.30 m) for every 100 °F (38 °C) over 250 °F (121 °C), which is the maximum operating transmitter temperature. Impulse piping must be uninsulated to reduce fluid temperature. All threaded connections should be checked after the system comes up to temperature, because connections may be loosened by the expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes.

and heat tracing to prevent freezing.

 For installations where the transmitter is more than 6-ft. (1.8m) from the Annubar

sensor, the high and low impulse piping must be run together to maintain equal temperature. They must be supported to prevent sagging and vibration.

 Threaded pipe fittings are not recommended because they create voids where air can

become entrapped and have more possibilities for leakage.

 Run impulse piping in protected areas or against walls or ceilings. If the impulse piping

is run across the floor, ensure that it is protected with coverings or kick plates. Do not locate the impulse piping near high temperature piping or equipment.

 Use an appropriate pipe sealing compound rated for the service temperature on all

threaded connections. When making threaded connections between stainless steel fittings, Loctite

PST® Sealant is recommended.
