ONICON flow conditioners are designed to be installed between two flanges (provided
by installer) that are located a specific distance upstream of the flow sensor. The use
of flow conditioners significantly reduces the upstream straight pipe length requirement
for flow sensor. The size of the flow conditioner must match the pipe size. Contact
ONICON for Schedule 80 flow conditioners.
