No effect
Vibration effect
An output with no process flow may be detected if
sufficiently high vibration is present.
The meter design will minimize this effect, and the factory
settings for signal processing are selected to eliminate
these errors for most applications.
If an output error at zero flow is still detected, it can be
eliminated by adjusting the low flow cutoff, trigger level, or
low-pass filter.
As the process begins to flow through the meter, most
vibration effects are quickly overcome by the flow signal.
Integral SST housing
At or near the minimum liquid flow rate in a normal pipe
mounted installation, the maximum vibration should be
0.044-in. (1,11 mm) double amplitude displacement or
1
/3
g acceleration, whichever is smaller. At or near the
minimum gas flow rate in a normal pipe mounted
installation, the maximum vibration should be 0.022-in.
(0,55 mm) double amplitude displacement or
1
/6 g
acceleration, whichever is smaller.
Mounting position effect
Meter will meet accuracy specifications when mounted in
horizontal, vertical, or inclined pipelines. Best practice for
mounting in a horizontal pipe is to orient the shedder bar in
the horizontal plane. This will prevent solids in liquid
applications and liquid in gas/steam applications from
disrupting the shedding frequency.
EMI/RFI Effect
Meets EMC requirements to EU Directive 2004/108/EC.
