Mounting
The measuring device is mounted in the pipeline using a process connection. In order to ensure
optimal gas venting, we recommend mounting the Flowcont UN vertically in the pipe. The device
should not be mounted behind an output valve, or it might run idle. To prevent outgassing and bubble
formation in the media during the flow measurement, the Flowcont UN should always be mounted on
the pressure side of the system pump.
If the device cannot be mounted vertically, the pipe in which the measuring device is located should
always be full. Preventing the formation of gas bubbles in the Flowcont UN measuring channel will aid
optimal measurements.
For applications with a „Clean Design“ when complete drain of the measuring tube is needed, we
recommend to mount the flow meter in vertical position. When flow meter is mounted horizontal
caused by the internal geometry of the device there might be a rest of liquid inside.
Attention:
The process connections from the FFU are offset by 5 mm (see dimensional drawing on
page 17-19).
Mounted Flowcont UN must alway be mechanically stress free. Strong tension in the pipe system can
lead to damage to the devise. Shocks or mechanical loads can affect the measurement accuracy of
the measuring device. If the FFU must be additionally secured due to the presence of vibrations or
mechanical
motion, two mounting clamps can be mounted to the inlet and outlet of the measuring device.
