3.4.6 Control valve
3.4.7 Slope
3.4.8 Mounting advice for difficult situations
If you can not meet the installation conditions install the flowmeter between two containers. The
inlet to the flowmeter must be higher than the outlet of the fluid. In this way you will have a calm
flow into the flowmeter, resulting in a highly accurate measurement. The sizes of the containers
must be proportional to the size of the flowmeter.
Figure 3-7: Installation before control valve
CAUTION!
The accuracy is influenced by the slope. Stay within
± 1% to get the most accurate
measurements!
