3.5. Assembly of the Measurement Section
In order to install or remove the gauge mounting block, the pipeline system should
be depressurized.
•
All connections to be made with appropriated sealing material on the threads.
•
The sealing material should not change the area of the inner cross section of the pipe. It must be
warranted that the connections after installation are free of leaks.
•
All fittings must be tested on seal tightness.
•
Make sure during the assembly of the measurement section that the arrows on the pipe section
and the gauge mounting blocks are pointing in the same direction as the flow.
•
The recess for the alignment pin must be at the side of the outlet.
3.5.1. Assembly without Flow Sensor, but with Screw Cap instead (Blind Cap)
In order to use the measurement section without the flow sensor, the blind screw
cap (in the scope of supply) must be screwed tight onto the opening of the gauge
mounting block. If not needed the screw cap can be screwed and stored on the
side of the gauge mounting block.

3.6. Installation of the Flow Sensing Probe
3.6.1. Flow Direction
The flow direction is indicated with an arrow on the tip of the probe. Due to the alignment pin is the installation
of the sensing probe in the gauge mounting block only possible in the direction of the flow. After a removal,
the sensing probe will be re-installed in the measurement section in exactly the same position as done at the
factory. Hence, the highest reproducibility is guaranteed.
