4.4

 

Vibrations and crosstalk 

Avoid vibrations 

Use flexible hoses, if vibrations exist in the pipeline.  

 

 

 

CAUTION 

 

Avoid any direct connection of flexible elements and the sensor: 
Install the hoses on the outer side of the shut off devices and the supported flow meter 

section. 

 

Avoid crosstalk 

Mount the sensors on different steelframes, keep distance between the sensors, or decouple 

the pipelines, if operating more than one meter in one or multiple interconnected pipelines. 

This will prevent cross talk.
