Conformance to European Community Directives: EMC directive 89/336/EEC
The low voltage 93/68/EEC
3A standard (LF490 and LF494 detectors):
Approved for 3A standard with FDA approved Teflon PFA lining.
Approved hazardous location certifications:
Model: LF494/LF610F and LF494/LF612F cFMus explosion proof:
FM Class I, Division 2, Groups A,B,C, and D. FM Class II, Division 2, Groups E, F and G. FM Class III.
Detector and converter combination:
LF490/LF610 : Combined type for standard specification.
LF490/LF612 : Separate type for standard specification.
LF494/LF610F: Combined type with Ex approval of Class I, Division 2 (cFMus).
LF494/LF612F: Separate type with Ex approval of Class I, Division 2 (cFMus).
Mount-Anywhere Technology:
Thanks to TOSHIBA’s unique patented magnetic field distribution technology, the meter is highly immune to upstream flow disturbances.
A minimum of 1D (diameter) length of upstream straight pipe from the flange is required to maintain the performance specification.
Note : The test results were obtained and demonstrated at TOSHIBA's flow calibration facility, Fuchu Japan.
Model LF490 and LF494 Detectors
Fluid pressure:
Note: This pressure is the allowable pressure for the detector. The actual pressure will be restricted by the type of connection method. For example, in the case of sanitary clamp type, the maximum pressure is 150 psi or 10 bar(1.0 MPa).
Note: The test pressure before shipping from the factory is equal to twice the nominal pressure rating of the customer specified flange connection during 15 minutes.
Connection method:
Sanitary clamp type (ISO 2852)
Note:
