5. Mechanical Connection
5.1 Before installation
Remove all packing materials and transport restraints and ensure that no such
materials remain in the device.
Make sure that the maximum operating pressure and temperature of the device
are not exceeded. (see section 6.Technical Information..)
Install the flow indicator in the piping system, ensuring that the piping is rigidly
supported at the inlet and outlet of the unit with pipe clamps
Ensure that the piping is aligned with the inlet and outlet fittings and the no
piping induced stresses are exerted in the indicator. This stress can result in
damage to the device during system operation
Protect the device from external damage.
Avoid pressure surges within the indicator chamber, such as those arising from
fast start up/shut off of flow or pulsating flow.
If possible, after completing the mechanical installation, check the threaded
connection between the device and the piping for leakage immediately.
