Installation

•
Connect hoses.
−
There must be no extra restriction placed in the drain hose. Do not have
a pipe going to a restrictor to control flow. Any such restrictor must be
mounted directly to the ICM drain fitting.
−
Fluid flow must be from the bottom fitting to the top, following the direction
of flow arrow on the product labelling i.e. the bottom fitting is the inlet and
the top fitting is the outlet.
•
Fit electrical connector, wire back to a junction box.
This is because any length of pipe between the ICM and a downstream restrictor can act as an accumu-
lator. Any pressure pulsations (for example from a pump) in the feed to the ICM are then translated into
pulsations in flow rate, sometimes leading to flow reversals in time with the pulsations. If the flow is
very low this can sweep the same particle backwards and forwards through the sensing volume multiple
times, confusing the results.
