3.1.1 Dimensions
For the dimensions of the measuring device, see the associated Technical Information on the
CD-ROM.
Mounting location
Correct flow measurement is possible only if the pipe is full. Entrained air or gas forming in the
pipe can result in an increase in measuring errors. For this reason avoid the following mounting
locations in the pipe:
• Highest point of a pipeline. Risk of air accumulating.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a vertical pipeline.
Orientation
Vertical
Recommended orientation with upward direction of flow (View A). With this orientation,
entrained solids will sink and gases will rise away from the sensor when the fluid is stagnant.
The piping can be completely drained and protected against solids buildup.
Horizontal
In the recommended installation range in a horizontal installation position (View B), gas and air
collections at the pipe cover and problematic deposits at the bottom of the pipe have a smaller
influence on measurement.
