Vertical Pipe Installation
The following installation scenario is recommended.
Calculation example for a vertical pipe:
D = 200 mm
Cs = 3.5%, chemical pulp
V = 2.4 m/s
The nomogram shows a relative length (L/D)
7.5. The Mp constant is 1
and the Ic constant is also 1.
L
B
= L/D x D x Mp x Ic
L
B
= 7.5 x 200 x 1 x 1 = 1500 mm.
L
A
= 0,5 x L
B
L
A
= 750 mm
The recommended length upstream the transmitter is 1500 mm and the
recommended length downstream the transmitter is 750 mm.
