Pipe length requirements
The vortex meter may be installed with a minimum of ten
diameters (D) of straight pipe length upstream and five
diameters (D) of straight pipe length downstream.
Rated Accuracy is based on the number of pipe diameter
from an upstream disturbance. No K-factor correction is
required if the meter is installed with 35 D upstream and 10
D downstream. The value of the K-factor may shift up to
0.5% when the upstream straight pipe length is between
10D and 35D. This effect can be corrected for in the
electronics transmitter.
Refer to the Rosemount Vortex Installation Effects Technical
Data Sheet for K-factor correction data.
Tagging
The flowmeter will be tagged at no charge, according to
customer requirements. All tags are stainless steel. The
standard tag is permanently attached to the flowmeter.
Character height is 1/16-inch (1,6 mm).
A wired-on tag is available on request. Wire on tags can
contain five lines with up to 28 characters per line.
