Flowtube Mounting
Physical mounting of a flowtube is similar to installing a typical section
of pipe. Only conventional tools, equipment, and accessories (such as
bolts, gaskets, and grounding hardware) are required.
Calibration Rosemount magnetic flowmeter systems are wet-calibrated at the
factory and need no further calibration during installation.
Upstream/Downstream Piping To ensure specific accuracy over widely varying process conditions,
install the flowtube with a minimum of five straight pipe diameters
upstream and two pipe diameters downstream from the electrode
plane, as shown in Figure 2-5. This flowtube placement is usually
adequate to allow for disturbances created by elbows, valves,
and reducers.
