Reduction in Process Pipe
Use standard reducing connectors on process pipes when they are larger than transducer
connection (fig. 15).
Fixing instructions mentioned previously must be followed.

Flexible Hoses
Generally flexible hoses should be avoided. In applications where vibration is excessive,
flexible hoses can be used to de-couple the process from the transducer.
Some applications demand the use of flexible hoses and therefore the installation should
comply with the diagram (fig. 16).
If in any doubt about the use of flexible hoses contact KROHNE prior to installation.

Transport supports
Transport supports fitted to larger meters are
not to be used for fixing the transducer in the
pipeline (fig. 17).

Do not use transport supports for mounting
