6.1.1 Mounting position
Mounting location
A0042039
To prevent measuring errors arising from accumulation of gas bubbles in the measuring
pipe, avoid the following mounting locations in the piping:
• Highest point of a pipeline.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a down pipe.

A Recommended orientation with upward flow direction
B Non-recommended installation range with horizontal orientation (60°)
C Recommended installation range max. 120°
Vertical
Recommended orientation with upward flow direction (view A) With this orientation,
entrained solids sink and gases rise away from the sensor area when the medium is not
flowing. In addition, the pipe can be completely drained and protected against the buildup
of deposits.
Horizontal
In the recommended installation range with a horizontal orientation (View B), gas and air
accumulations at the top of the pipe and inteference from deposit buildup at the bottom of
the pipe can influence the measurement to a lesser degree.
