Preparatory steps prior to installation

Depending on the conditions specific to the measuring point (e.g. Clamp-on, number of
traverses, fluid, etc.), a number of preparatory steps have to be taken before actually installing
the sensors:
1. Using the conditions specific to the measuring point, determine which installation
distances are necessary for installation.
2. Determine the values for the requisite installation distances.
A number of methods are available for determining the values:
– Local operation of the device
– FieldCare (operating program) procedure explained in the Operating Instructions on
the CD-ROM
– Applicator (software) procedure explained in the Operating Instructions on the
CD-ROM
3. Mechanical preparation of the Clamp-on holders for the sensors:
– Premount the strapping bands: DN 50 to 200 (2 to 8") or DN 250 to 4000 (10 to 160")
– Fix the welded bolts procedure explained in the Operating Instructions on the
CD-ROM

Determining the necessary installation distances

The installation distances that are necessary for installation depend on:
• The type of sensor: Prosonic Flow P (DN 50 to 4000 / 2 to 160"),
Prosonic Flow P (DN 15 to 65 / ½ to 2½") or Prosonic Flow W
• Insertion version: Clamp-on with strapping band or welded bolt, installation in pipe
• Number of traverses or single-path/dual-path version
