Vent hole: ø 5 ... 10 mm (0.197 ... 0.394 in)
VEGASON 62 can be used from tube diameters of 50 mm (1.969 in).
Avoid large gaps and thick welding joints when connecting the tubes.
Generally carry out a false echo storage.
Measurement in a standpipe is not recommended for extremely
adhesive products.
The short examples give you introductory information on the flow
measurement. Detailed planning information is available from flume
manufacturers and in special literature.
