Rosemount 8712
Figure 5-4. Incline or Decline
Orientation
Horizontal installation should be restricted to low piping sections that are
normally full. Orient the electrode plane to within 45 degrees of horizontal in
horizontal installations. A deviation of more than 45 degrees of horizontal
would place an electrode at or near the top of the sensor thereby making it
more susceptible to insulation by air or entrapped gas at the top of the
sensor.
Figure 5-5. Horizontal Sensor
Orientation
The electrodes in the Rosemount 8711 are properly oriented when the top of
the sensor is either vertical or horizontal, as shown in Figure 5-6. Avoid any
mounting orientation that positions the top of the sensor at 45 degrees from
the vertical or horizontal position.
