Installation
For vertical installations with
descending flow direction con-
tact the manufacturer.
Avoid the installation of the sen-
sor in a long unsupported pipe
line. Always provide adequate
support.
Avoid operation of the instru-
ment with the pipe partially
empty.
Avoid installation of this instru-
ment near bends in the piping
or accessories such as valves.
Avoid using the closing force of
the nuts to draw the meter and
pipe together over a large dis-
tance.
For vertical installations, use as-
cending flow conditions, only.
For installations on long runs of
pipe use anti-vibration joints, as
shown
During operation of the instru-
ment, the pipe must be com-
pletely full of liquid, or com-
pletely empty.
Install the sensor away from
bends in the pipe and accesso-
ries such as valves.
Bring the flange of the piping as
close as possible to the flange
of the sensor before tightening
the nuts on the connection
bolts.
