Upstream/Downstream Piping
To ensure specification accuracy over widely varying process conditions, install the sensor a
minimum of five straight pipe diameters upstream and two pipe diameters downstream from
the electrode plane (see Figure 3).
Installations with reduced straight runs from 0 to five pipe diameters are possible. In reduced
straight pipe run installations, performance will shift to as much as 0.5% of rate. Reported
flow rates will still be highly repeatable.
Flow Direction
The sensor should be mounted so the FORWARD end of the flow arrow, shown on the
sensor identification tag, points in the direction of flow through the sensor.
