3.7 Handling of insulating gases and gas mixtures
SF₆ gas is a greenhouse gas which is listed in the Kyoto Protocol. SF₆ gas must not be
released into the atmosphere, but must be collected in suitable containers.
Properties of insulating gases
■Colourless and odourless
■Chemically neutral
■Inert
■Not flammable
■Heavier than air
■No toxicity
■No damage to the ozone layer
Detailed information is given in IEC 60376 and IEC 61634.
Danger of suocation caused by insulating gases and gas mixtures
High concentrations of gases can lead to asphyxiation, since breathable air is displaced
from the lungs with the inhalation of gas.
Since SF₆ gas is heavier than air, it collects, especially, at ground level or lower-lying
rooms below the reference level (e.g. cellars). This is particularly dangerous since SF₆
gas is colourless and odourless and thus may be imperceptible to people.
3.8 Danger caused by decomposition products
Insulating gas in electrical systems may contain decomposition products generated by
electric arcs:
■Gaseous sulphur fluorides
■Sulphur hexafluorides
■Solid and atomized metal fluorides, metal sulfides, metal oxides
■Hydrogen fluoride
■Sulphur dioxide
Decomposition products can be harmful to health.
■They can cause poisoning by inhalation, ingestion or contact with the skin.
■They may be irritating to the eyes, the respiratory system or the skin and burn them.
■Inhalation of large quantities may damage the lungs.
Observe the following safety instructions in order to avoid danger from insulating gas:
■Wear personal protective equipment.
■Read the material safety data sheet of the gas supplier.
■With large leaks, evacuate the area quickly.
■Ensure good ventilation.
■Ensure the leak tightness of the equipment with a leak detector (e.g. model GIR-10).

5.1 Mechanical mounting
CAUTION!
Physical injuries and damage to property and the environment
through faulty instrument
Prior to commissioning, the instrument must be subjected to a visual
inspection. Only use the instrument if it is in perfect condition with respect
to safety.
5.1.1 Requirements for the installation point

5.1.2 Installation
■
With transport or storage, it can occur that gas density monitors warm up or cool down
and this results in pointer movements. These pointer movements are caused by the
compensation system.To make sure that the instruments have adapted sufficiently to
ambient temperature, at least 2 hours at 20 °C must be allowed for adaptation to the
temperature.Then, in the depressurised state, the pointer will sit within the tolerance
bar.
■Corresponding to the general technical rules for pressure gauges (e.g. EN 837-2
“Selection and installation recommendations for pressure gauges”) when screwing in
the instrument, the force required to do this must not be applied through the case, but
only through the spanner flats provided for this purpose and using a suitable tool.
■When screwing in, do not tilt the threads.
For parallel threads, use flat gaskets, lens-type sealing rings or WIKA profile sealings
at the sealing face . With tapered threads (e.g. NPT threads), sealing is made in the
threads , using a suitable sealing material (EN 837-2).
The tightening torque depends on the sealing used. In order to orientate the measuring
instrument so that it can be read as well as possible, a connection with LH-RH union or
union nut should be used. When a blow-out device is fitted to an instrument, it must be
protected against being blocked by debris and dirt.
5.1.3 Temperature load
The installation of the instrument should be made in such a way that the permissible
operating temperature, also considering the effects of convection and thermal radiation,
neither exceeds nor falls below the permissible limits.
The influence of temperature on the indication and measurement accuracy must be
observed.
5.2 Electrical mounting of the gas density monitor
■The instrument must be grounded via the process connection.
■For cable outlets, make sure that no moisture enters at the cable end.
■Select a cable diameter that matches the cable bushing of the connector. Make sure
that the cable gland of the mounted plug has a tight fit and that the seals are present
and undamaged.Tighten the threaded connection and check that the sealing is
correctly seated, in order to ensure the ingress protection.
■Connection details and switching functions are given on the product label. Connec-
tion terminals and ground terminal are appropriately marked.
