Sensor installation
6.1
Selection of the measuring location
The installation of the PCE-TDS 75 is very simple. You only need a suitable measuring location,
then attach the sensors to the pipe and start the measurement. The following must be observed
when selecting a suitable installation location:
•
Select a pipe section that is always filled with liquid, e. g. a vertical pipe with flow
upwards or a full horizontal pipe.
•
Ensure a sufficiently straight pipe length for the installation of the upstream and
downstream sensors.
•
In the case of a horizontal pipe, the sensors should be mounted on the side to prevent
air bubbles at the top or deposits at the bottom from falsifying the measurement result.
•
Make sure that the temperature of the measuring location is below the temperature
limits of the sensors.
•
The inside of the pipe should also be in good condition. If possible, choose a section of
pipe where the interior is free from corrosion.
•
The section must be sound-conducting.
