Please note:
For purging tubes with a length of 800 and 1 200 mm, the wall thickness must not exceed 200 mm with DN 65/PN 6 connections. To carry out measurements with thicker walls, please contact Siemens.
The optimum adjustment of the flanges can change with high differences in temperature between the process and environment depending on the type of assembly.

Dust load
The influence of dust is very complex and depends on the path length and particle size. The optical attenuation increases exponentially at longer path lengths. Smaller particles also have a very large influence on the optical attenuation. With high dust load, long path length and small particle size, the technical support at Siemens should be consulted.
