iv MagneW FLEX+/PLUS+ Electromagnetic Flowmeter Detector
CAUTION
Tighten each bolt a little at a time and apply uniform pressure to all the bolts.
If leakage continues after tightening the bolts, make sure that the pipe is not o
center, then continue to tighten each bolt a little at a time.
CAUTION
Using a gasket with too small a diameter can aect the ow velocity distribution,
resulting in inaccurate measurement.
Using a gasket with too large a diameter can cause leakage. Also, any solid
substance in the uid to be measured could accumulate between the gasket and the
ange, resulting in inaccurate measurement.
CAUTION
The necessary materials and the installation method vary according to the material
of the ring and that of the pipe on which the detector is to be installed. Select the
appropriate method of installation from the following table after conrming the
specications of the detector to be installed and the conditions of installation.
Improper installation can result in leakage or damage to the pipe anges.
CAUTION
The use of anything other than the PTFE gaskets provided can result in leakage.
The use of rubber gaskets is not recommended and can cause leakage.
CAUTION
The use of rubber gaskets and a lower fastening torque is not recommended and
can cause insucient surface pressure between the lining and the grounding ring,
resulting in leakage.
CAUTION
Insucient grounding can cause output uctuations, instability of the zero point,
or output drift. Secure single point grounding with a grounding resistance of 100
W or less is recommended.
Do not ground a welder to the detector to avoid damaging the detector.
