Vortab Insertion Sleeve (VIS) Installation
Prepare the installation site or inspect the already prepared location to assure that the VIS will fit into the process pipe or duct.
• Verify that the VIS matches the geometry and dimensions of the intended process pipe mount.
• The outlet of the VIS must be located three nominal pipe diameters (3D) upstream from the customer meter. The process pipe must continue
straight for at least 1 pipe diameter (1D) past the customer meter. See Figure 2-7.
