Installation Planning Considerations; Environmental Conditions - Honeywell MagneW 3000 Plus Application Manual

The MagneW 3000 PLUS planning considerations are summarized in Table 5. To ensure proper flowmeter selection
and operation, the following installation conditions should be reviewed:

• Environmental conditions

• Fluid to be measured
• Measured liquid flow conditions
• Detector location in piping
• Clearance for maintenance and inspection

Installation Planning Considerations

The following should be considered when installing the MagneW 3000 PLUS .
• The ambient temperature should be within the following ranges:
– Integral model:
–25 to +60°C (–13 to +140°F)
– Remote converter:
–25 to +60°C (–13 to +140°F)
– Remote detector:
PFA lining:
–30 to +80°C (–22 to +176°F)
Polyurethane rubber or Chloroprene rubber lining:
–30 to +60°C (–22 to +140°F)
• Whenever possible, the flowmeter should not be exposed to direct sunlight, rain, or other
unfavorable weather.
• The flowmeter should be installed as far from any pump in the line as practical, so that the flow
does not pulsate.
• The flowmeter must not be subjected to severe vibration, as equipment damage could result.
• The flowmeter must not be subjected to a highly corrosive atmosphere, as equipment damage
could result.
• The flowmeter must be installed sufficiently apart from high-current power lines, motors,
transformers, or any other source of electromagnetic interference.
