Electromagnetic Flowmeter Detector 2-9
2.4.3: Necessary parts
You will need the following parts to install a wafer detector:
• Centering nuts (four supplied)
• Connecting bolts and nuts (available separately)
• Gaskets: Required when using grounding rings made of SUS material. Not
required when using grounding rings made of hastelloy, titanium, tantalum, or
platinum.
• Protective Plate: Required when connecting the detector to polyvinyl chloride
(PVC) piping.
Centering nuts
The centering nuts create the exact alignment of the pipe and detector. These nuts
are positioned on through-bolts and the detector is set on top of the nuts to properly
position it against the flanges.
The position of the centering nuts depends on the direction in which the detector is
installed. For horizontal centering of the detector, position two centering nuts against
each flange. For vertical centering of the detector, position the four centering nuts on
the bottom flange. The following figures show horizontal and vertical centering nut
positions.
