At flow meter upstream, there should be straight pipe no less than 5D and no less
than 2D at flow meter downstream. (D is the inner diameter of the flow meter)
3.2 Requirements for Measuring Flow Meter Accuracy
• Medium must be conductive;
• The pipe should be completely filled with the medium;
• Medium conductivity should be homogeneous to avoid severe disruption. If chemical
substances need be injected into the pipe, the injection should be operated at
upstream side of flow meter;
• Magnetic flow meter system should be connected to the ground;
• There must be a straight pipe run no less than 5DN at flow meter upstream and 2DN
at flow meter downstream. (DN is the internal diameter of the pipeline);
• Do not install the flow meter near large electrical machine or transformer in order to
avoid the electromagnetic interference.
3.3 Installation Condition
NOTE
Do not expose the electronic unit box to direct sunlight; in case of outdoor
installation, use a suitable protection shield
• Install flow meter at relative low of horizontal pipe or in an upward vertical direction.
Do not install the flow meter at the highest point of the pipe and in the vertically
downward direction
