Mounting location
Correct measurement is only possible if the pipe is filled.
For this reason, avoid
the following
mounting locations in the pipe:
• At the highest point of the pipeline. Risk of air accumulating.
• Directly upstream of a free pipe outlet in a down pipe.

Mounting location
The following proposed installation, however, permits installation in an open down pipe. Pipe
restrictors or the use of an orifice with a cross-section smaller than the nominal diameter prevent
the pipe from running empty during measurement.
