SECTION 2 — INSTALLATION
2.1 INSTALLATION
These instructions cover installation of RheoVac instruments in their standard configuration. Additional
information pertaining to your unit is covered in SECTION 6 CUSTOM INFORMATION . Carefully
read these instructions prior to installing the equipment. Also, see preceding SECTION 1.4.
2.2 RheoVac SYSTEM INSTALLATION/SITE SELECTION
The RheoVac 950 can be configured with one, two or three probes. A three probe system is intended
to be installed so that one probe is in each of the two exhaust lines coming out of the condenser (A side
and B side). The third probe should go in the header pipe that runs to the exhauster(s). Other
installation arrangements of multiple probes should be discussed with the factory.
2.2.1 Probe Site Selection
#
The location for each probe should provide the probe sensing area with well-established
smooth flow, uniform system temperature and pressure, and consistent non-liquid phase flow
medium. Pipe sections ahead of a probe, in which water can accumulate, must be avoided.
Refer to Figure 2 and select the most preferred location for each probe. Do not install the
probes beyond any “trap” sections as shown in Figure 2, Configurations B and D. Special
installation instructions unique to your unit, where applicable, will be noted in SECTION
6.3 SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to this section now to review special instructions.
