Note
— Flow velocity at the pipe wall and fluid viscosity must be within the limits shown to
ensure that the fluid within the pocket is refreshed in a timely manner. This
installation will not respond as rapidly as the free-stream installation to step
changes in viscosity.
— The thermal mass of the flanges may affect the response time of the meter to
temperature changes.
• Attach the PFA ring and circlip to the underside of the meter flange before installing
the meter in your application (see Attach the PFA ring and circlip).
Note
If you are using a Zirconium meter, this meter uses a self-locking PFA ring and does not
require a circlip.
Procedure
See Figure 3-8 or Figure 3-9 for information on installing the meter with a flanged fitting in
a 3 in (76 mm) T-piece.
Figure 3-8: 3 in (76 mm) T-piece installation: horizontal pipe
Insert a purge/drain connection on the upper part of the T-piece. You can use the purge
connection to flush the pipe if necessary.
