□ Install the meter so that the flow direction arrow on the sensor case matches the actual
forward flow of the process. (Flow direction is also software-selectable.)
2.2 Best practices
The following information can help you get the most from your sensor.
• There are no pipe run requirements for Micro Motion sensors. Straight runs of pipe
upstream or downstream are unnecessary.
• If the sensor is installed in a vertical pipeline, liquids and slurries should flow upward
through the sensor. Gases should flow downward.
• Keep the sensor tubes full of process fluid.
• For halting flow through the sensor with a single valve, install the valve downstream
from the sensor.
