is
present
in
the
application.
a.
Pipe
can
be
made
of
any
material.
b.
Select
a
minimum
3”
ID
pipe
for
the
stand

i.
A
2”
pipe
is
usable
with
the
LVU2810
series,
but
is
the
minimum.
ii.
Pipes
larger
than
3”
can
also
be
used.
c.

a
coupling
and
reducer

to
attach
the
LVU2800
Series
to
the

or
2”
Slip

d.
The
pipe
length
should
run
the
measurement
span
and
the
bottom
of
the
pipe
should
remain
submerged
at
all
times
to
prevent
foam
from
entering
the

e.
Cut
a

liquid
past
the
open
end
of
the

which
causes
the
liquid
in
the
pipe
to
oscillate.
