around the device (see Fig. 7).

- Always mount the device upstream a possible injection point

in the pipe of a high-conductivity fluid (for example: acid, base,
saline,...).

Respect the following additional mounting conditions to ensure
that the measuring device operates correctly:

- Preferably install the device at a 45° angle to the horizontal centre of

the pipe to avoid having deposits on the electrodes and false meas-
