Mounting frame assemblies without a spacer bar
The recommended procedure to mount the frame assemblies is by using a spacer bar. If this
is not available you can mount the Magnetic frame assemblies using the following method.
1.
Use the Wizard setup procedure to program the transmitter for the sensors that were
selected.
2. After receiving the spacing number index from the transmitter, make a note of the number
displayed.
3. Select a mounting location on the pipe for the Reference frame assembly. (Refer to the
sensor orientation diagram below.)

Dual Path sensors at 10 and 2 o'clock positions.
4. At the desired mounting location, carefully place the frame assembly so that it rests on
the pipe and is straight along the axis of the pipe.
5. With a pencil or marker, mark a generous area of 13 mm (1/2") all around the frame.
Remove the frame assembly.
6. Prepare the area you marked by de-greasing surface, and if needed, by removing any
grit, corrosion, rust, loose paint or surface irregularities with the abrasive material
provided.
