Figure 10 – Transmitter location below the tap for liquid or steam flow measurement
Attention: For liquid or steam, the piping should slope a minimum of 25.4 mm(1 inch) per 305 mm
(1 foot). Slope the piping down towards the transmitter if the transmitter is below the process
connection so the bubbles may rise back into the piping through the liquid. If the transmitter is located
above the process connection, the piping should rise vertically above the transmitter; then slope down
towards the flow line with a vent valve at the high point. For gas measurement, use a condensate leg
and drain at the low point (freeze protection may be required here).

4.6 General Piping Guidelines

•
When measuring fluids that contain suspended solids, install permanent valves at regular
intervals to blow-down piping.
•
Blow-down all lines on new installations with compressed air or steam, and flush them with
process fluids (where possible) before connecting these lines to the Transmitter Meter Body.
•
Verify that the valves in the blow-down lines are closed tightly after the initial blow-down
procedure and each maintenance procedure thereafter.

4.7 Procedure to Install Flange Adapters

The following procedure provides the steps for removing and replacing an optional flange adapter
on the process head. See
This procedure does not require that the Meter Body be removed from the Electronics
Housing. If flange adapters are being replaced with parts from other kits (for example,
process heads), follow the procedures for the kits and incorporate the following procedure.
NOTE: The threaded hole in each Flange Adapter is offset from center. To ensure proper
orientation for re-assembly, note the orientation of the offset relative to each Process Head
before removing any adapter.
