Page 7: Site Considerations
4.0 Site considerations Local mounting The flow transmitter accuracy is affected by the flowcell location in the process piping and on the orientation of the transducers. Thus, in addition to accessibility for maintenance, adhere to the following installation guidelines: • Locate the flowcell so that there are at least 10 pipe diameters of straight, undisturbed flow upstream and 5 pipe diameters of straight, undisturbed flow downstream from the measurement point (see Figure 2 below). - Page 8 4.2 Remote mounting 4.5 Insulation The standard flow transmitter enclosure is a powder- Do not place thermal insulation on or around the transducer coated, aluminum, IP67 explosion-proof enclosure. locations or the flow transmitter. The enclosures act as heat Typically, the enclosure is mounted as close as possible sinks that protect against high and low temperatures.
