Note!
A specially designed perforated plate flow conditioner can be installed if it is not possible to observe
the inlet runs required (see Page 15).
Outlet runs with pressure and temperature measuring points
If pressure and temperature measuring points are installed after the device, please ensure there is a
large enough distance between the device and the measuring point so there are no negative effects
on vortex formation in the sensor.
