Water Flow
MAIN LINE OR LATERAL LINE
The Flow-Clik sensor body is designed in diameters from
1" to 3". It is installed into the mainline or lateral pipe of
the irrigation system. It is important to install the Flow-Clik
Sensor Body downstream of the master valve (for mainline
installations) or the zone valve (for lateral line installa-
tions). Also, it is necessary to install the Sensor Body in
an area of low turbulence within the system. Areas of high
turbulence will cause erratic readings from the Flow-Clik.
The figure below represents a recommended sensor body
installation. There must be at least 10 times the pipe diam-
eter of straight pipe upstream of the Sensor Body inlet and
at least 5 times the pipe diameter in length of straight pipe
downstream of the Sensor Body outlet. This will assure
that the Flow-Clik sensor be placed in the optimum position
within the irrigation system.
INSTALLING THE FLOW-CLIK SENSOR BODY...........................................
NOTE: For maximum protection against over-
flow conditions, it is required that a master
valve be installed.
