1) Table shows a typical selection: In critical cases (large pipe diameter, liner, gas or solid inclusions) the optimum sensor type may differ from these
recommendations.
• If clamp-on sensors are used, a 2 traverse-type installation is recommended. This is
the easiest and most convenient type of installation, particularly for measuring
devices whose measuring pipe is difficult to access from one side.
• A 1 traverse installation is recommended for the following installation conditions:
• Certain plastic measuring pipes with a wall thickness of >4 mm (0.16 in)
• Measuring pipes made of composite materials (e.g. glass-fiber reinforced plastic)
• Lined measuring pipes
• Applications with media with high acoustic damping
• High-temperature applications (>170°C), order code "Process temperature",
options H, I, J: configuration and sizing of the measuring point using the
Applicator is recommended.

If operating outdoors:
Avoid direct sunlight, particularly in warm climatic regions.
In principle, it is permitted to insulate the sensors mounted on the pipe. In the case of
insulated sensors, make sure that the process temperature does not exceed or drop
below the specified cable temperature.
For notes on insulation for high-temperature sensors, see the Special Documentation
on high-temperature applications for the device →  216
