Upstream/Downstream Piping

To ensure specification accuracy over widely varying process conditions, install the sensor a
minimum of five straight pipe diameters upstream and two pipe diameters downstream from
the electrode plane (see Figure 3).

Flow
Installations with reduced upstream and downstream straight runs are possible. In reduced
straight run installations, absolute performance may shift. Reported flow rates will still be highly
repeatable.

Flow Direction

The sensor should be mounted so the FORWARD end of the flow arrow, shown on the sensor
tube adaptor points in the direction of flow through the sensor. See Figure 4.
