HANDLING
It should always be done with care and without knocks.

INSTALLATION
This should be made in a straight pipe run that guarantees that the pipe is always completely
full and where there is a fully developed turbulent flow profile (follow indications on point 4.2).
Avoid high points of the pipes where air pockets usually form, or pipes with downwards flow
where vacuums can occur.
Partially full pipes can involve important reading errors.
Flow rate measurement with open discharge makes it necessary to install the flowmeter in a
pipe section with a siphon which avoids stagnation of air in the sensor.
4.1
Sensor position
The optimum position to install the sensor is with the electrodes in the side of the pipe. This
way, air pockets at the top of the pipe are avoided.
