5.2. Selection of mounting method
There are two ways for mounting the detector, the V method and the Z method (See Fig. 5-1).
The Z method should be used in the following cases.
●
Where a mounting space is not available. (As shown in the figure above, the mounting dimension with
the Z method is about half of that with the V method).
●
When measuring fluid of high turbidity such as sewage.
●
When the pipe has a mortar lining.
●
When the pipe is old and has a thick accumulation of scale on its inner wall.
Selection standard
For an inside diameter of more than 300 mm, the Z method is recommended for mounting.
5.3. Mounting method on the pipe
