4.3.4 Recommendations for directly mounted temperature sensors
When mounting a temperature sensor directly in the outlet of the flow sensor, acceptable orientations for the
temperature sensor must be taken into account. For heating applications (Figure 6 (a)), the orientation of a
temperature sensor is not important as long as a homogeneous temperature distribution can be assumed, i.e. all
orientations can be accepted. For cooling applications (Figure 6 (b)), water penetration into the sensor element must
be avoided. Therefore, a temperature sensor is mounted ideally from the bottom pointing with its tip upwards and
can be rotated up to a horizontal position.

a heating and
(b)
a cooling application.
These recommendations for temperature sensor installation comply with the recommendations for flow sensor
installation illustrated in Figure 4 and Figure 5. However, while a temperature sensor can well be directly installed in
a flow sensor for cooling application mounted in an ascending pipe, it must not be mounted in a flow sensor for
cooling application mounted in a descending pipe.
The flow sensor can be used in both PN16 and PN25
installations and is delivered marked with
PN16/PN25.
The blind plug delivered mounted in the MULTICAL
403 flow sensor and the direct short sensor from
Kamstrup A/S may be used in connection with both
PN16 and PN25.
Any supplied extensions and couplings can be used
for both PN16 and PN25.
