5. The flow sensor can be mounted vertically or horizontally.
If the flow sensor is mounted vertically, the flow direction should always
be upwards. In that way the effect from possible bubbles in the liquid
will be significantly reduced, just as it will ensure that the flow sensor is
always filled with liquid.
In case the liquid is carrying particles, for example when measuring
sludge, sewage, etc., the flow sensor must be mounted vertically.
6. When mounting horizontally in pipes with free downstream outlet, the
flow sensor should be mounted such that it will always be filled with liq-
uid, for example in a bend situated lower than the height of the outlet.
In case the liquid is carrying particles, e.g. when measuring sludge,
sewage etc. the flow sensor must be mounted vertically.
