Level measurement 1500 mmWs
Product temperature 40 °C, reference temperature 20 °C
VEGABAR 87 with measuring range 0.2 bar
Deviation < 0.1 %
Calculation ΔT: ΔT = 40 °C - 20 °C = 20 K
Calculation of the set Turn Down:
TD = 200 mbar/147 mbar, TD = 1.4
1. step: Calculation of the basic accuracy
F
perf
= √((F
T
) 2 + (F
Kl
) 2 + (F
a
) 2 )
F
T
= 0.05 %/10 K x TD
F
Kl
= 0.1 %
F
a
= 0.15 %
F
perf
= √((0.05 %/10 K x 20 K x 1.4) 2 + (0.1 %) 2 + (0.15 %) 2 )
F
perf
= 0.23 %
Step 2: Calculation of the total deviation
F
total
= F
perf
+ F
stab
F
stab
= 0.1 %/year x TD
F
stab
= 0.1 %/year x 1.4
F
stab
= 0.14 %
F
total
= 0.23 % + 0.14 % = 0.37 %
9.6 Exchange process assembly with version
IP 68 (25 bar)
With version IP 68 (25 bar), the user can exchange the process as-
sembly on site. Connection cable and external housing can be kept.
Required tools:
•
Hexagon socket wrench, size 2
Caution:
The exchange may only be carried out in the complete absence of
line voltage.
In Ex applications, only a replacement part with appropriate Ex ap-
proval may be used.
Proceed as follows when carrying out the exchange:
1. Loosen the fixing screw with the hexagon socket wrench
2. Carefully detach the cable assembly from the process assembly
