Flow direction alignment for the flanged version
The arrows on the sides of the sensor housing assembly are pointing in the same direction as the
flow.
3.2.8
Flow direction alignment for the insertion version
It is very important that the sensor is aligned correctly with the direction of flow. There are two
guidelines for correct alignment:
• The arrows on the sides of the sensor housing assembly are pointing in the same direction as the
flow.
• The graduated scale on the insertion tube section should be aligned directly upstream of the flow
direction.
To ensure optimum exposure of the measuring transducers to the flowing gas stream, the sensor
must not be rotated more than 7 degrees from this alignment.
