Introduction
Description Series 2000-RANGE-VALVE
The Series 2000-RANGE-VALVE is a unique combination of the series 2000 and ball Valve. The Series 2000-RANGE-VALVE
is specially designed for the pulp- and paper industry or similar, where clogging is a problem. The very compact construction of
the series 2000-RANGE-VALVE permits flush installation with the tank- or pipe wall. The transmitter part can be removed without
shutting down the process (for example: during cleaning or maintaining activities). The diaphragm (21) is flush with the tank/pipe
when the transmitter is pushed trough the valve and locked in its measuring position. All wetted parts are made of SS 316 (AISI).
Barometric Reference
The SERIES 2000-RAN-VALVE are in basic so-called “relative transmitter” which means that barometric changes will not affect
the zero (4 mA). The venting (4) is placed at the side of the electronic housing and is the barometric reference to atmospheric. The
venting must be kept clean.
