2.4.8 Gas purging:
In order to remove condensation drops during start-up, flushing with dry gas for some minutes with high
flow rate is recommended.
Leak tightness:
Verification of leaks is required prior starting up of the process.
2.4.9 Inlet bends and pipe support:
Avoid pipe bends too close to the mini CORI-FLOW inlet. This might cause turbulence (especially for
gases). Use pipe supports on equal distance of mini CORI-FLOW inlet and outlet.

2.4.10 Pipe line reducers:
Avoid abrupt pipeline reducers and other obstructions in the piping. They can cause cavitation inside the
meter tubes and will result in higher pressure drops. Mount reducers outside the rigid pipe supports.
M25 M26
2.4.11 Vibrations:
Avoid vibrations or mechanical shocks on the mini CORI-FLOW.
Flow vibrations of pumps can influence meter performances. Therefore avoid connecting the pump
directly to the meter or install a dampening device. A flexible connection (eg. Teflon tubing) or extra loop
in the piping to neutralize vibrations is advised. Do not mount the sensor in areas subject to vibration.
