Quick Installation and Start-Up
2.7 Mounting
2.7.1 Upstream/downstream piping
To ensure specified accuracy over widely varying process conditions, install the sensor with
a minimum of five straight pipe diameters upstream and two pipe diameters downstream
from the electrode plane (see Figure 2-6).
Figure 2-6. Upstream and Downstream Straight Pipe Diameters
A. five pipe diameters
B. two pipe diameters
Installations with reduced upstream and downstream straight runs are possible. In reduced
straight run installations, the meter may not meet absolute accuracy specifications.
Reported flow rates will still be highly repeatable.
2.7.2 Flow direction
The sensor should be mounted so that the arrow points in the direction of flow. See Figure
2-7.
