Technical details
Connection of the leak detector to the distributor block
(Worksheet LDS 8.213)
The individual surveillance spaces of the double-walled pipin
g
lines are connected using the measuring branch MA to the
outlets of the distributor block. When laying in multiple lines,
the double-walled piping may have high and low points a
s
described in Worksheet LDS 8.214 for laying in a single line,
as long as the sum of the high and low points does no
t
exceed 3.5 m
.

At PB > 5 bar up to max. 25 bar a solenoid valve MV mus
t
be installed between the crosspoint KP and the connectio
n
to the distributor block VT
.
The solenoid valve protects the leak detector from non-
permissible high pressures. The solenoid valve is monitore
d
electronically so that a failure of the solenoid valve triggers
the alarm
