Orientation of Kamstrup’s flow sensors
The recommended orientation of the flow sensor in an installation takes into account the metrological sensitivity of the
flow sensor to orientation, for example because of orientation-dependent flow profiles; poor water quality of district
heating water, e.g. dirt, which can accumulate in the flow sensor; air in the system and finally because of environmental
requirements, for example in case of condensation. The recommendations may vary for each of the types because of
their diversity in the design.
6.6.1
General recommendations
Kamstrup’s flow sensors can be mounted
vertically, horizontally or at an angle.
If Kamstrup flow sensors are vertically
mounted, they can be turned ±360° around
the pipe axis.

The plastic box should be placed on the side
(at horizontal mounting). See below for
additional details.
Figure 16. Separate mounting of Kamstrup flow sensors. Vertically, horizontally or at an angle.
At horizontal mounting, Kamstrup’s flow sensors can be turned around the pipe axis. Acceptable angles of rotation for
the various types of Kamstrup flow sensors can be found in
At medium temperatures above 90 °C and below ambient temperature, i.e. for cooling installations, calculator and Pulse
Transmitter/Pulse Divider must not be mounted on the flow sensor. Instead wall-mounting is recommended. The
orientation of the flow sensor in a cooling installation does therefore not need to take the readability of the calculators
display into account and can thereby be limited to the optimum orientation of the flow sensor only.
