4.5 High Flow Rate Installation  

 

To reduce the instance of fluid flow separation inside the JF-1A sensor 
assembly an alternate insertion depth is required.  D-2 defines high flow product 
lines as lines in which the velocity of product exceeds 1.5M/sec (5 ft/sec).  
Velocity can be determine by dividing the cross sectional area of your pipe 
((I.D./2)^2* 3.14 dived into your product flow rate (in equivalent units of 
measure). 
 
In the figure below the recommended high flow rate depth is illustrated.
