Note
Handling
Lift the flowmeter by the sensor body. Do not lift the flowmeter by the housing.
Avoid vibrations
• Make sure that any valves or pumps upstream of the sensor do not cavitate and do not send
vibrations into the sensor.
• Decouple vibrating pipeline from the flow sensor using flexible tube or couplings.

Avoid cross talk
When operating more than one flowmeter in one or multiple interconnected pipelines there is
a risk of cross talk.
Prevent cross talk in one of the following ways:
• Mount sensors on separate frames
• Decouple the pipeline using flexible tubes or couplings
