Preface


Preface

This installation guide is intended for technicians involved in the mechanical installation of the

Enraf series 864 Multi Thermo sensor Thermometer. The electrical installation can be found at the

Installation guide 762 VITO Interface and 764 / 765 / 766 VITO temperature and/or water bottom

probes. The technician must have basic technical skills and knowledge of safety regulations and

explosion-proof equipment in hazardous areas.

EC declaration of conformity

Refer to the EC declaration of conformity, shipped with the instrument.

Legal aspects

The mechanical and electrical installation shall be carried out by trained personnel with knowledge

of the requirements for installation of explosion-proof equipment in hazardous areas.

Safety aspects of the 864 MTT

The housing of the 864 MTT is intrinsically safe, certified by KEMA (Netherlands):

II 1 G EEx ia II B T4, KEMA 01ATEX1212 X

The environmental conditions for the 864 MTT are:

operating pressure : max. 5 bar

relative humidity : 0 - 100 %

operating temperature : -20 °C to 90 °C; standard temperature range (Nylon)

-55 °C to 135 °C; standard temperature range (Stainless steel)

-55 °C to 200 °C; high temperature range (Stainless steel)

-55 °C to 250 °C; very high temperature range (Stainless steel)

-200 °C to 70 °C; very low temperature range (Stainless steel)

Safety conventions

“Warnings”, “Cautions” and “Notes” have been used throughout this installation guide to bring

special matters to the immediate attention of the reader.

• A Warning concerns danger to the safety of the technician or user;

• A Caution draws the attention to an action which may damage the equipment;

• A Note points out a statement deserving more emphasis than the general text, but does

not deserve a “Warning” or “Caution”.

Warning Do not use the instrument for anything else than its intended purpose.

Safety


Personal safety

The technician must have basic technical skills to be able to safely install the equipment.

When the 864 MTT is installed in a hazardous area, the technician must work in accordance with

the (local) requirements for electrical equipment in hazardous areas.

Warning In hazardous areas it is compulsory to use personal protection and safety gear such as:

hard hat, fire-resistive overall, safety shoes, safety glasses and working gloves.

Avoid possible generation of static electricity.

Use non-sparking tools and explosion-proof testers.

Do not rub the surface of the 864 MTT with a cloth to avoid the built-up of

electro-static charges. These may cause sparks and explosions

in hazardous areas, if a combustible gas mixture is present.

Make sure no dangerous quantities of combustible gas mixtures

are present in the working area.

Never start working before the work permit is signed by all parties.

Pay attention to the kind of product in the tank. If any danger for health,

wear a gas mask and take all necessary precautions.

Installation


Installation

Installation conditions

The 864 MTT can be installed either in two ways:

• in a thermowell

• directly in the tank (with anchor weight)

Installation in a vertical thermowell

Minimal, a 1½" thermowell can be used; but we recommend to use a 2" thermowell.

The thermowell flange must be provided with a G ½ threaded opening.

The thermowell can be provided with holes, or it can be closed.

For open thermowells it must be checked, whether the outer sheathing material of the 864 MTT is

resistant against the product. In general, we recommend the use of closed thermowells.

Closed thermowells can be filled with oil for a better heat transfer between the stored product and

the 864 MTT. Normal transformer oil can be applied for this purpose.

Note: We do not recommend to use oil

filled thermowells in tanks with

heated products. Due to the heating

at the lower end, the oil will circulate

in the well which results in a

temperature mismatch.

With oil filled thermowells, take care that

oil can expand when heated, without

creating an over pressure.

Use expansion pipe or vent opening

under flange (refer to figure 1), or other

suitable method. Figure 1 Vent opening and expansion pipe

Caution Water ingression must be

prevented in the thermowell.

When freezing, water becomes ice, which can damage the 864 MTT.

Installation


Installing the 864 MTT in a thermowell

Refer to figure 2.

• Before starting the installation of the 864 MTT, use a measuring tape to check the depth of

the thermowell. The overall length of the 864 MTT must be within +200 mm (+8") and

• -100 mm (-4") from the measured depth.

• Take care that the leads are not damaged or twisted. Slowly unroll the 864 MTT while

feeding it into the thermowell. Do not bend the 864 MTT further than it was in its packing.

• Place a G ½ nut (2) on the MTT extension tube (1) when the flange (3) is not provided

with a screw thread. This nut is not included with the 864 MTT.

• Screw the flange (3) on the 864 MTT and adjust the inside length of the 864 MTT. Apply

some acid free grease or Teflon® tape at the location of the flange on the 864 MTT

extension tube.

• Secure the flange on top of the thermowell with bolts and nuts.

• Place lock washer (4) over MTT extension tube and fasten G ½ locknut (5) on flange.

• Place 864 MTT indication plate (6) over locknut and secure it with a second G ½ nut (7).

Installation


Installation directly in the tank, suspended from roof nozzle

This is only suitable with tanks at a low pressure

(max. 0.5 bar vapour pressure). It must be checked,

whether the outer sheathing material of the 864

MTT is resistant against the stored product.

The 864 MTT has a lug at the lower end to which an

anchor weight can be attached. The installation

requires a suitable flange, provided with an G ½

threaded opening (refer to fig. 3).

Refer to figure 2.

• Attach the anchor weight to the 864 MTT

lug.

• Take care that the leads are not Figure 3 Anchor weights

damaged or twisted.

• Slowly unroll the 864 MTT while lowering it through the roof nozzle. Do not bend the 864

MTT further than it was in its packing.

• Place a G ½ nut (2) on the MTT extension tube (1) when the flange (3) is not provided

with a screw thread. This nut is not included with the 864 MTT.

• Screw the flange (3) on the 864 MTT and adjust the suspended length of the 864 MTT.

Apply some acid free grease or Teflon® tape at the location of the flange on the extension

tube of the 864 MTT.

• Secure the flange on top of the roof nozzle with bolts and nuts.

• Place lock washer (4) over MTT extension tube and fasten G ½ locknut (5) on flange.

• Place 864 MTT indication plate (6) over locknut and secure it with a second G ½ nut (7).

Warning Only install the 864 MTT with Nylon outer

sheathing on products which cannot

built-up an electro-static charge.

Caution When an anchor weight is attached,

the maximum static load is:

23 kg (50 lbs) for Stainless Steel version

13 kg (30 lbs) for Nylon version

Installation


Zone 0 adapter

For Germany only.

Refer to figure 4.

• Place G ½ nut (1) and toothed lock

washer (2) on 864 MTT extension tube.

• Remove carefully the braided plastic

insulation from the flying leads, starting

within 1 cm from the end of the

extension tube.

• Disassemble the zone 0 adapter.

• Screw part (3) on the 864 MTT

extension tube. Lock with nut (1).

• Feed the MTT wiring through the

• rubber (6).

• Slide rubber in position.

• Place plastic gland (5).

• Turn part (7) in place and fix locking

screw (4).

The 762 VITO Interface will be installed directly

on top of the zone 0 adapter

(refer to installation guide 762 VITO Interface

and 764 / 765 / 766 VITO temperature and/or

water bottom probes).

Figure 4 Zone 0 adapter

Caution For zone 0 applications only:

The 864 MTT has been approved by PTB for zone 0 applications.

When the German zone 0 requirements are applicable and the 864 MTT is directly

installed in the zone 0 (no closed thermowell), then a zone 0 adapter must be

installed on top of the 864 MTT.
