    Installation & Operation Manual Vertical Placement Mag meters perform best when placed vertically, with liquid flowing upward and meter electrodes in a closed, full pipe. Vertical placement allows the pipe to remain completely full, even in low flow, low pressure applications, and it prevents solids build-up, sediment deposit and accumulation on the liner and electrodes.

  • Page 10: Straight Pipe Requirements

    Model M-2000 Mag Meter Straight Pipe Requirements Sufficient straight-pipe runs are required at the detector inlet and outlet for optimum meter accuracy and performance. An equivalent of three diameters of straight pipe is required on the inlet (upstream) side. Two diameters are required on the outlet (downstream) side.
