Abstract
A supply manifold (10) and a transmitter supporting block (11, 11a, 11b) are combined into a pressure transmitter supporting modular unit such that when maintenance or cleaning of the system is to be carried out, the pressure transmitter or transmitters can be removed together with the supporting block (11, 11a, 11b) to keep inlet section of the transmitter(s) protected from mechanical impacts or the like. The supporting block with the transmitter(s) can then be placed back after the servicing, rodding or the like of the system, without the need for time consuming realignment of the elements and without the danger of damaging the pressure transmitter as mentioned above. Three different embodiments of the supporting block (11, 11a, 11b) are described for use in the modular unit of the invention.
