SITRANS FM100

7.1 Check operating conditions
• flow rate
• max. operating pressure
• max. operating temperature
In general, FM100 is subjected to the same loads as the piping into which it is
installed. The FM100 should therefore be kept away from extreme loads, such as
pressure surges with strong, dynamic pipe movements, vibrations in the proximity
of centrifugal pumps, high temperature media, flooding etc.
7.2 Installation
• Remove all packing materials and transport retainers and ensure that no such
materials remain in the device.
• It can be installed in vertical, horizontal or rising pipes. Flow in direction of the
arrow.
• Avoid pressure and tensile load.
• Mechanically secure the inlet and outlet pipe at a distance of 50 mm from the
connections.
• Avoid valves or large reduction on the inlet section (this increases the
inaccuracy of measurements).
• Check the leak tightness of the connections.
While mounting FM100 hold the flowmeter from spanner surface
(not from the housing) with the help of spanner.
Take into account the tightening torque.
