Instructions for Use - SCHMIDT®Volume Flow Sensor IL 30.0xx Page 16
Transport / shipment of the sensor
For transportation or dispatching of the sensor, it must be well protected
against vibrations and shocks. Ideally, the sensor is shipped with fitted
protective caps and in its original packaging.
Soiling, mechanical stress and / or touching the sensor elements should
be avoided.
Calibration
If the customer has made no other provisions, we recommend repeating
the calibration at a 12-month interval. For this purpose the sensor must be
sent in to the manufacturer.
A calibration can be carried out only if the basic sensor, i.e. without
mounted extended sections or other pipes, is sent in. Also make sure that
there are no damages especially concerning the sensor elements and the
inner mounting threads.
Spare parts or repair
No spare parts are available, since a repair is only possible at the manu-
facturer's facility. In case of defects, the basic sensor must be sent in to
the supplier for repair. Any other installed parts like pipes or measurement
extensions have to be removed.
A completed declaration of decontamination must be attached.
The appropriate form “Declaration of decontamination” form is enclosed
with the sensor and can also be downloaded from
www.schmidt-sensors.com
under “Calibration Service Center”.
Alternatively it can be downloaded from
www.schmidttechnology.de
under the heading "Product Downloads" in "Service & Support / Sensor
Technology”.
If the sensor is used in systems important for operation, we recommend
keeping a replacement sensor in stock.
Test and material certificates
Every new sensor is accompanied by a certificate of compliance according
to EN 10204-2.1. Material certificates are not available.
Upon request, we shall prepare, at a charge, a factory calibration certifi-
cate, traceable to national standards.
