7. For sensor end support with sealing plug 
only:Seal the thread of the sealing plug with a 
suitable sealing compound (e.g. PTFE tape). Screw 
the sealing plug into the sensor end support and 
tighten it firmly.

8. Perform the installation of the sensor into the pipe 
according to the instructions given in chapter 6.1. 

 

6.3  Installation of Type IBF-25 

1. Drill a hole of 35mm diameter into the pipe. 

 

The subsequent Stepps correspond to the installation 
of the  ITABAR sensor type IBF-20 !

 

 

Oberserve the H- dimension during the welding! 
(see also Fig. 9)  

 

6.4  Installation of Type IBF-26 

1. Drill a hole of 35mm diameter into the pipe. 

 

The subsequent Stepps correspond to the installation 
of the  ITABAR sensor type IBF-21 !

 

 
 

Oberserve the H- dimension during the welding! 
(see also Fig. 9)  

 

6.5  Installation of Type IBF-35 

1. Drill a hole of 40mm diameter into the pipe. 

 

The subsequent Stepps correspond to the installation 
of the  ITABAR sensor type IBF-20 !

 

 

Oberserve the H- dimension during the welding! 
(see also Fig. 9)  

 

6.6  Installation of Type IBF-36 

1. Drill a hole of 40mm diameter into the pipe. 

 

The subsequent Stepps correspond to the installation 
of the  ITABAR sensor type IBF-21 !

 

 

Oberserve the H- dimension during the welding! 
(see also Fig. 9)  

 

6.7  Installation of Type IBF-65 

1. Drill a hole of 60mm diameter into the pipe. 

 

The subsequent Stepps correspond to the installation 
of the  ITABAR sensor type IBF-20 !

 

 

Oberserve the H- dimension during the welding! 
(see also Fig. 9)  
 
 

6.8  Installation of Type IBF-66 

The design of the ITABAR sensor of the type IBF-
66 is almost identical to the type IBF-21. The only 
difference is the sensor end support (delivered in 
two pieces). After successful installation of the end 
support, the end cap must be weld onto the end 
support.  
 
1. Drill a hole of 60mm diameter into the pipe. 

 

The subsequent Stepps correspond to the installation 
of the  ITABAR sensor type IBF-21 !

 

 

Oberserve the H- dimension during the welding! 
(see also Fig. 9) 

 

Note ! 

On long sensors, an installation aid can be screwed 
into the ½” thread of the sensor end (e.g. threaded 
pipe). This will make it easier to insert the sensor 
into the opening of the sensor end support and  align 
the sensor. 
 
 

7.  Installation of the Attachments and the 

 

 

p-Transmitter 

7.1 Instrument 

valves 

The instrument valves for the differential pressure 
lines are pre- installed by the manufacturer, if it is 
part of the order.
