  • Page 12: Operating Conditions: Installation

    Cubemass DCI Operating conditions: Installation Installation instructions Note the following points: • The measuring device is designed for mounting on tabletops, walls or pipes. • The high oscillation frequency of the measuring tubes ensures that the correct operation of the measuring system is not influenced by pipe vibrations.
  • Page 13: System Pressure

    Cubemass DCI System pressure It is important to ensure that cavitation does not occur as it could influence the oscillation of the measuring tube. No special measures need to be taken for fluids which have properties similar to water under normal conditions.

  • Page 16: Pressure Loss (Us Units)

    Pressure loss depends on the nominal diameter and the fluid properties. The "Applicator" PC software is available from Endress+Hauser and can be used to calculate the pressure loss in US units. The "Applicator" program contains all the important device data which allows the measuring system arrangement to be optimized.
