2.8 Transducers Mounting / Location
The first step in the installation process is the selection of an optimum location in order to obtain better
signal quality, which ensures a more reliable and more accurate measurement. For this to be completed
effectively, it is best to have a basic knowledge of the hydraulic system about to be measured.
The optimum location will be length of straight pipe that is always full of process and has no bubbles. The
piping can be in vertical (flow going up) or horizontal position but should have the following recommended
straight lengths of pipe both upstream and downstream as defined in diameters.
