  • Page 6: Installation

    INSTALLATION Pipe Location • The six most common installation configurations shown in fig. 1 help in selecting the best location in the pipeline for paddlewheel flow sensor as well for magmeter flow sensor. • The three configurations in fig. 2 ensure that the pipe is always full: for a correct measurement the sensor can NOT be exposed to air bubbles at any time.

  • Page 7: Mounting Position

    Fig.2 Fig.3 Fig.4 Mounting position Measuring part of sensor (rotor for paddlewheel and pins for magmeter) should be positioned at 12% of ID where, basing on insertion theory, average velocity can be measured. The reading accuracy of insertion flow sensors can be affected by: •...

  • Page 8: Process Connection

    Process connection 1. Lubricate the sensor O-rings with a silicone lubricant. Do not use any petroleum based lubricant that may damage the O-rings. 2. Lower the sensor into the fitting making sure the alignment tab is seated in the fitting notch. 3.

  • Page 14: K-Factor Tables

    K-FACTOR TABLES K-Factor is the number of pulses which a sensor produces for one liter of measured fluid. Here below all K-Factors for water at room temperature are listed. K-Factor values can depend on the installation conditions. K-Factor has to divide the frequency generated by F3.00 in order to achieve the flow rate (l/s).
