Melt Pressure Sensor Mounting Surface Preparation
Proper preparation of the mounting surface before mounting the melt pressure sensor is important to ensure correct operation of the sensor and increase the reliability of measurements. Here are some steps you should consider for melt pressure sensor mounting surface preparation:
Cleaning:
The mounting surface must be free of dirt, oil, grease and other contaminants. Contaminants can prevent the sensor from fitting properly and affect measurements. A clean surface allows the sensor to be mounted securely.
Smoothness:
The sensor must sit properly on the mounting surface. If the mounting surface is irregular or contains protrusions, it may be difficult for the sensor to sit in the correct position and make reliable measurements. Corrections should be made if necessary to ensure a smooth mounting surface.
Material Suitability:
Check the compatibility between the mounting surface and the sensor materials. Materials that are particularly resistant to the chemical properties of the liquid or melt should be used.
Mounting Surface Smoothness:
It is important that the mounting surface is smooth. A smooth surface ensures proper contact when mounting the sensor. If the mounting surface is rough, smoothing or smoothing should be done if necessary.
Mounting Surface Hardness:
The sensor must be mounted sufficiently rigidly to the mounting surface. A soft material or mounting surface may prevent the sensor from remaining in the correct position. If necessary, a suitable mounting bracket must be used for sensor mounting.
Protection and Preservation:
The mounting surface of the sensor must be protected in accordance with environmental conditions. Especially in outdoor applications, the use of water-resistant, dust-proof housing should be considered.
Mounting surface preparation is a critical step for proper operation and long life of the sensor. Installation manuals and technical documentation provided by the manufacturer can guide you through the mounting surface preparation process. Additionally, it is important to consider the specific application requirements in which the sensor will be used.
