7.1 Introduction Please read this chapter carefully before installing the meter. In case of incorrect mounting, Kamstrup's guarantee obligations no longer apply. By connecting to 230 V supply, there is a risk of electric shock. When working on the flow sensor in the installation, there is a risk of outflow of (hot) water under pressure.
Page 33
Furthermore, it must be taken into account that the above static pressure is lower after a contraction than before (e.g. at cones). This means that the static pressure – when measured elsewhere in the installation– might be different from the pressure at the flow sensor outlet. Kamstrup A/S · Technical description · 5512-2464_A1_GB_08.2019...
Page 34
When dimensioning a flow sensor, you must take the above into consideration, especially if the sensor is used within the scope of EN 1434 between q and q , and in case of major pipe contractions. Kamstrup A/S · Technical description · 5512-2464_A1_GB_08.2019...
ULTRAFLOW® 54/34 7.1.2 Connections, accessories and assembly Direct connection of ULTRAFLOW® is only permitted to Kamstrup MULTICAL® calculators on terminals 11-9-10, as shown in paragraph 7.7 Electrical connections.

Pulse Transmitter/Pulse Divider while ULTRAFLOW® is installed in the installation. For battery supply of Pulse Transmitter/Pulse Divider, a lithium battery with connector from Kamstrup A/S must be used. Lithium batteries must be correctly handled and disposed of (see Kamstrup document 5510-408, ”Lithium batteries - Handling and disposal”).
For vertical mounting, ULTRAFLOW® can with advantage be turned ±360° around the pipe axis. Important! The plastic casing should be placed on the side (at horizontal mounting). Figure 16.

Electric welding *) can occur. Electric welding must always be carried out with the earth pole closest to the welding point. Damage to meters due to welding is not comprised by Kamstrup's factory guarantee. 7.9 Operational check Carry out an operational check when the complete meter (flow sensor, temperature sensors and calculator) has been installed and connected.
Within the heat, cooling and water meter industry, producers have been working on alternative techniques for the replacement of flow sensors based on the mechanical principle. Research and development at Kamstrup have proven that ultrasonic measuring is the most viable solution. Combined with microprocessor technology and piezo ceramics, ultrasonic measuring is not only accurate but also reliable.
