Section 2 Scanner ® 2000 microEFM 7. Install the RTD assembly in the thermowell. Remove the plug from the other conduit opening in the top of the Scanner 2000 enclosure, route the RTD assembly cable through the conduit opening in the top of the Scanner 2000, and connect it to the main circuit board. A wiring diagram for the RTD assembly is provided in Figure 3.5, page 64. CAUTION Do not use Teflon ® tape on the threads of the union, adapter, or pipe plugs. Use of Teflon ® tape will void the explosion-proof rating of the instrument. 38
Scanner ® 2000 microEFM Section 2 Measuring Steam via a Differential Pressure Meter Note This section contains installation guidelines for orifice and cone meters. If installing the Scanner 2000 with an averaging pitot tube meter, refer to manufacturer instructions for installation. Best Practices The Scanner 2000 microEFM calculates steam flow in accordance with IF-97, AGA-3, and ISO-5167 industry standards. For optimum performance, ensure that the Scanner 2000 installation complies with the industry recommendations listed below: Condensate pots • A condensate pot for a small-volume transducer like the Scanner 2000 MVT can be a simple pipe tee, oriented so that one port extends downward (into the cold leg), the opposite port extends upward and is closed by a pipe cap or blowdown valve, and the tee extends horizontally into the hot leg. • The pots should be the highest point in the system. • The pots should be mounted at the same level, and one or both should be adjustable vertically to remove zero shifts in the differential pressure measurement. Hot legs • Hot legs should be large diameter (3/8 in. or 1/2 in., if possible) • Hot legs should be as short as possible. If these sections must be more than 1 ft. in length, insulate them. • Elbows and bends should not form any traps in which liquid can accumulate. • Hot legs should be sloped along their entire length to allow liquids to drain back into the pipe. Cold legs • Cold legs should enter the multi-variable sensor through its side ports. • Cold legs should be a minimum of 2 ft in length to allow proper convection cooling and should be run horizontally with a slope of approximately 1 inch per foot to allow air bubbles to float up into the pots. • Elbows and bends should not form any traps for air bubbles. • Cold legs should be filled with a suitable antifreeze. Dibutyl phthalate is recommended. Antifreeze • Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) has the following advantages over glycol antifreeze: – DBP doesn’t mix with water, and so doesn’t become dilute over time; its specific gravity doesn’t shift. – It is slightly denser than water, so it will stay in the pot permanently. – It is non-flammable. – It is much less toxic than glycol. – It is available from industrial suppliers. Valves • Use only full-opening block valves that are rated for steam service. • Use only blowdown valves that are rated for steam service. Periodic blowdowns are recommended for preventing buildup of scale. 39
