CAUTION
FAULTY METER INSTALLATION
Correctly install the equipment.
If meter bodies are mounted or oriented differently than specified above, debris or gas
may collect in the transducer ports which could adversely affect the transducer signals, or
cause equipment damage.
• Normally, the meter body is installed so that the electronics assembly is on the top
of the meter. If there is insufficient space above the piping for this arrangement, the
meter can be ordered with extra long transducer cables for remote mounting or the
meter housing can be installed with the electronics assembly on the bottom.
• The mating piping should include temperature measurement connections located a
minimum of three nominal pipe diameters length down stream of the meter, or per
AGA Report No. 9.
