BEFORE YOU INSTALL

General Considerations

The MSP422 is used for level measurement.

The transmitter must be installed in a location where it is protected from ultraviolet radiation to prevent long term degradation of the plastics used e.g. shrouded from direct sunlight.

It is important to correctly position the transmitter for reliable ultrasonic level measurement. For maximum accuracy and stability of the level measurement reading, the transmitter should always be shrouded from direct sunlight and radiated heat.

The transmitter may be site-tuned to deal with most application conditions, but it is recommended that the following guidelines be adopted where relevant.

NOTE:

The Mobrey MSP422 is designed to be mounted in a non-metallic fitting or flange. The use of metallic fittings/flanges is not recommended.

Guidelines:

a)Installation must be carried out by suitably trained personnel in accordance with the applicable code of practice.

b)If the equipment is likely to come into contact with aggressive substances, it is the responsibility of the user to take suitable precautions that prevent it from being adversely affected, thus ensuring that the type of protection is not compromised.

Aggressive Substances are acidic liquids or gases that may attack metals or solvents that may affect polymeric materials.

Suitable Precautions are regular checks as part of routine inspections, or establishing, from the material's datasheet, that it is resistant to specific chemicals.

c)The equipment must only be cleaned with a damp cloth.

d)The equipment is not intended to be repaired by the user and is to be replaced by an equivalent unit. Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer or approved repairer.

e)The transmitter is Double Insulated, and therefore Protective Earthing is not required.

f)To maintain protection against the possible spread of fire, the supply to the equipment must be limited to 3.75 Amps by a fuse or other means

g)Note that if the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection afforded by the equipment may be impaired.

h)The transmitter complies with the European Directive for Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) Class B. To ensure electro-magnetic compatibility in any member state, it should not be installed in a residential area.

NOTE:

It is not advisable to mount the transmitter in close proximity to a source of electrical noise such as a variable-speed drive, or other high-powered electrical device.
