Chapter 2 Installation of this Device
(ii) Recommended piping, example 2
A typical piping example in which the device is higher than the differential pressure output port of
the process pipe is shown below.
Be sure to implement the following items.
• Depending on the measured fluid, create an incline of at least 1/10 in the differential pressure
output pipes so that drains, vents, etc., will clear.
Meaning of incline symbol
in the diagram:
Low position
High position
• Install gas vent plugs at locations where gas in connecting pipes exits.
• After doing the piping work, confirm that there are no pressure leaks in the connecting pipes,
the three-way manifold valve, the transmitter, etc.
• For the purpose of connecting pipe maintenance, use T-joints to attach drain valves.
