If the measuring point is situated near an elbow, the following measurement arrangements are recommended for the 
selection of the sound beam plane.
Diagonal arrangement with 2 beams Reflection arrangement with 2 beams 
and 2 planes
• same characteristics as reflection 
arrangement with 1 beam
• additional characteristic:
influences of the flow profile are 
compensated because the measurement 
takes place in 2 planes
• same characteristics as diagonal 
arrangement with 1 beam
• additional characteristic:
cross-flow effects are compensated 
because the measurement is conducted 
with 2 beams
Vertical pipe Horizontal pipe
• The sound beam plan is selected at an 
angle of 90° to the elbow plane. The 
elbow is upstream of the measuring 
point.
• The sound beam plane is selected at an 
angle of 90° ± 45° to the elbow plane. 
The elbow is upstream of the measuring 
point.
