an angle of 45° to the top of the pipe. Experience has shown that the most consistently

minimises the effect of any flow turbulence resulting from entrained air along the top of the pipe
and sludge at the bottom.

contact with the pipe surface.
NOTE: THE SENSOR-HOLDING SCREWS AND WASHERS SHOULD BE KEPT IN A SAFE
PLACE IN CASE IT IS NECESSARY TO RELOCATE THE UNIT (SEE PAGE 43).
