1.5 Installation
Use the following mounting and installation instructions so that
the sensing element will operate properly.
• Sensingelementshouldbemountedinasectionofpipe
as close to center and as parallel to the pipe as possible
• Factorycalibrationassumesmountingonthepipe
centerline and in the correct size pipe
• Verticalmounting(tipdown)ispreferredbutnot
essential
• Gasbubblesmustbeexcludedfromtheactivearea
bymaintainingpressure(ifnecessary,adegasser
upstream)asbubblesdecreasesystemaccuracy
• Donottakesensingelementapartorloosenthepacking
glands
• Inlargepipeinstallations(over8inches)thelengthof
the cote shield section must be long enough that the
cutout in the concentric tube is in the actual flow of oil
• Forlargepipewithnobend(18inchesorlarger)itis
possible to mount the sensing element at 45 degree
angle to provide sufficient flow through the shield.
