2 Product description

The GTL720 pipe clamp-on sensors are especially useful as an alternative to invasive and inline-measuring

procedures for monitoring sterilization processes. Without disturbing the process, the special clamp-on

mechanics make the systems flexible, absolutely dead spot-free, and usable without high installation costs.

This measuring procedure permits high-precision results.

The pipe clamp-on sensor consists of a sensor insert with the Pt100 sensor and the pipeline adapter. The

electric contact is achieved by means of a three-wire system and an M12 round connector.

2.2 Operating principle

The GTL720 pipe clamp-on sensor measures temperatures of liquids in metal pipelines without a process con-

nector touching the fluid. For this purpose, the pipe clamp sensor is mounted on the exterior of the pipe at a

suitable site. The sensor plate is pressed to the exterior of the pipe wall by a spring. Constant pressure and

shielding the silicone from the ambient air guarantee an optimal thermal transfer. The one-piece measuring

insert, which is manufactured from premium-quality synthetic material prevents undesirable heat dissipation and

reduces the response time. The sensor plate inside the measuring insert is in direct thermal contact with the

Pt100 sensor.

3 Mounting and electrical installation

3.1 Mechanical mounting

The RLA pipe clamp sensors are available in three sizes. The adapters are adjusted to the pipe diameter (DN10

to DN80) with different highly heat- resistant silicone inserts.

Frame size (Bg)

Pipe Ø [mm]

12,0..19,0

20,0..33,9

34,0..53,0

60,3..75,9

76,0..88,9

Table 3 Frame size and pipe diameter

Available for pipe standards: DIN 11850 r1, r2 and DIN11866 rB, rC.

The cap nuts of the two adapter parts should be torqued to a value from 0.5 to 1 Nm (0.37 to 0.74 ft-lb) to avoid

a deformation of the silicone insert, which would prevent a correct fitting of the pipes.

For the same reason, all cap nuts must be torqued equally. This is especially important for pipes with small

diameters without the use of heat-conductive paste.

3.2 Mounting guidelines

For mounting instructions, see Figure 7 Permissible types of mounting

To ensure secure functionality and the best measuring results, please follow these mounting steps:

1. The pipe diameter should not deviate more than ± 1 % from the nominal diameter of the silicone insert.

2. Clean the exterior of the pipe before installation. Be sure that no chips, swarf, or other particles are

lodged between sensor and pipe because this would prevent the contact plate of the sensor from

being flush against the pipe, which reduces accuracy.

3. The installation site should be at least 15 cm (6 inches) from pipe el- bows, pipe reducers, and radial

welded seams. The sensor must not be placed on welded seams of axially welded pipes. The sensor

should be installed at a distance of at least15 cm (6 inches) from other installed sensors with fluid

contact.

4. Behind pipe elbows, the sensor housing should be installed on the out- side to prevent measuring

errors due to bubble formation or flow characteristics.

5. If the pipes are not completely filled, the sensor should be installed in the fluid-covered area of the

pipe.

6. Unilateral strain due to suspending heavy objects or taut connection wires should be avoided.

The sensor plate must be flush against the pipe.

7. If thermal compound is used between pipe wall and measuring tip, it should be replaced in the mainte-

nance interval according the maximum storage period of the paste.

8. The electrical installation must be made after the pipeline adapter is installed on the process line.

3.3 Mounting notes

Figure 7 Permissible types of mounting

Position

Characteristics

Ideal:

Achieves the best result, since there are no bubbles, deposits, or rising lost heat in the pipes

to distort the measuring result.

Questionable:

Lost heat and moving the contact area may lead to distorted measuring results.

Ideal:

Good measuring result, if no air bubbles form. Minimum distance to pipe angle 15 cm (6

inches)

Questionable:

Lost heat and too small a distance from the connection flange may lead to distorted measur-

ing results.

3.5 Electrical installation

The electrical connection happens via the M12 round connector. For the wiring see Figure 8 Connection

diagram.

The device must be installed only by a qualified electrician. The national and international regulations for the

installation of electrical systems of the relevant operator country apply.

Additional requirements for use in potentially explosive atmospheres:

1) The temperature sensor GTL must be connected to an for intrinsic safety certified Ex-transmitter.

2) The temperature sensor GTL must be used together with the clamp-on adapters RLA.

3) The clamp-on adapters must be mounted on a grounded tube.

4) The declarations are only valid for operating conditions, which means the sensor must touch the pipe,

possibly with conductive thermal compound.

5) For RLAs in FS.4 the metal clamp must be grounded.

4 Commissioning, Maintenance and Servicing

4.1 Commissioning

1. Be sure that the pipe clamp sensor is flush with the pipe.

2. Be sure that the M-12 connector is screwed on correctly and the cable is not pulling on the sensor.

3. Check the correct measuring function after connecting the evaluation device.

4.2 Maintenance

Housing

When cleaning the device, make sure that its connections are firm and tight. Cleansers must not harm the

housing surface and gaskets.

If the housing is cleaned with a high-pressure cleaning device, make sure the electric connection and the

device are not sprayed directly. Avoid cleanser deposits on the thread and inside the guide of the interior

part.

Sensor

During cleaning, it is essential not to damage the sensor tip. If cleansers are used, make sure that they do not

harm any materials.
