Installation
Steam
In steam applications, fill the lines with water to prevent the steam from contacting the
transmitter. Condensate chambers are not required because the volumetric displacement of the
transmitter is negligible.
For a remote mounted transmitter, mount the transmitter below the process piping, adjust to
10° to 15° above direct vertical down. Route the impulse piping down to the transmitter and fill
the system with cool water through the two cross fittings.
Top mounting for steam applications is an appropriate mounting option in many cases. Consult
Rosemount Customer Central for instructions regarding steam on top mounting.
Figure 2-9 illustrates the recommended location of the flowmeter in steam applications.
