    INSTALLATION Step 1 – Drilling hole: It is recommended that the saddle/sensor not be located on the very top or very bottom of the pipe. Ideal performance can be achieved with the saddle mounted at 2 to 4 o’clock or 8 to 10 o’clock. Hole should also be drilled perpendicular to the pipe centerline and tangent to the curvature.

    OPERATION Determining the K-factor: The K-factor value is needed to convert the sensor’s output pulsed into volume or rate data. The graphs located on the back of the Quick Start Guide show K-factor values for many versions of water lines. By knowing the line you’re using or the inside diameter of the line, you can determine this value.
