Flow-through chamber meter installation
Figure 2-1:
A. Flow direction
Note
•
This flow-through chamber is a direct-insertion type chamber that does not have a thermowell, and
uses a 1-
½
-inch threaded cone-seat connection.
•
The three compression fittings on the flow pockets (
½
-inch drain,
¾
-inch temperature probe, and 1-
½
-
inch mounting nut for the meter) are rated to above the working pressure of the flow pocket. The
fittings may be Swagelok or Parker.

Mount with an inline viscosity retrofit kit
The inline viscosity retrofit kit provides a simple, direct replacement for existing meters.
Typically, the flange-to-flange distance is 150 mm (5.9 in), although Micro Motion can
accommodate larger versions. Usually, no pipework changes are necessary.
CAUTION!
Observe all corporate and government safety regulations. Wear protective clothing, safety
glasses, and gloves to prevent burns and the absorption of hot oil.
