Pipe installation The following figure illustrates various installation positions in pipes and indicates whether they are permitted
or not.

Orientation and installation positions (with retractable assembly CUA451)
• The pipeline diameter must be at least 100 mm (4") if reflective materials (e.g. stainless steel) are used. An
onsite calibration is recommended.
• Install the sensor in places with uniform flow conditions.
• The best installation location is in the ascending pipe (it. 1). Installation is also possible in the horizontal pipe
(it. 5).
• Do not install the sensor in places where air may collect or foam bubbles form (it. 3) or where suspended
particles may settle (it. 2).
• Avoid installation in the down pipe (it. 4).
• Turbidity measurement < 200 FNU will result in erroneous measuring results due to backscattering of pipe
wall. Therefore a multipoint calibration is recommended.
• Avoid installations behind pressure reduction steps which can outgas.
